You could always get a custom-made one like I did if you like them enough. I'm over six feet and wanted it to be big, but I also have a very large bedroom and can fit it in there easily. All I know is that I'll go to the Mattress Barn and pick out something before I put a four poster in my apartment.
As for Putnam, I don't think I can forgive her for Pershing Hall. Gawd, how I hated that one. Lovely bathrooms, but I really loathed the rest.
