Does anyone know if a non-ikea standard twin mattress will fit on a twin ikea bed frame (specifically the Tarva)? It seems that the Tarva dimensions are ever so slightly smaller than a standard twin mattress. Would this really make a difference?

I doubt it. Once I tried pairing a standard double mattress with a double IKEA bed frame and it was a total fail. I think all the IKEA frames and mattresses are European sizes, so they're not easily interchangeable with standard bed sizes in the U.S.

Oh, does anyone know if this applies to their cribs? I registered for their cribs but am getting a crib mattress from amazon.

We have a queen bed frame from IKEA, and we use a queen Serta mattress with it. It fits fine.

I remember a while ago being on the hunt for a bed, and I asked at Ikea about this, and I was told that a long time ago Ikea did indeed used to carry European sized mattresses in North America but that changed a long time ago as well. So in short, unless something has changed that practice, you should be fine!
We had an ikea crib with a non-ikea mattress with no problems, and currently have a double ikea bed with a non ikea mattress too!

We have a ikea king and use a California king and it works. Not perfect but it works. Also, not all their beds are the same size so definitely double check!
