What Size Mobile & Manufactured Homes are Available?

Today’s manufactured homes enjoy high-quality construction and are increasingly roomy. What is a mobile home, you might think? Unlike site-built models, they are crafted in a controlled manufacturing setting and transported to a certain location. This is largely the reason why the following general sizes are available.

The Simple Answer to Mobile Home Sizes

Height: 13.5 feet
Length: 80 feet
Width: 18 feet

It’s important to understand that manufactured homes are transported in sections that typically fall under this size. However, it would be more accurate to say fall into configuration and manufactured home price ranges below.

Table of Contents

Manufactured Homes Cost and Specifications

Manufactured Home Configurations

Although state-of-the-art manufactured homes are created in a controlled manufacturing setting, height, width, and length considerations are generally driven by sizes that can be safely transported.

Buyers with growing families often select spacious “single-wide,” “double-wide,” or “triple-wide” options that are installed on-site. Each of the three general manufactured home categories delivers unique layout, design, cost, and living space benefits that should be carefully considered when selecting the best manufactured home for your family.

Single Wide Mobile Home Sizes & Dimensions

It’s essential for manufactured home buyers to keep in mind that the maximum size of a single-wide home will be determined by state regulations. Transportation regulations differ between states and their regulations set the high-water mark. During the design and purchase process, a customer service professional reviews these and other guidelines with home buyers.

Average Single Wide Mobile Home Dimensions

Although the average single-wide mobile home runs 14-18 feet wide, and 66-80 feet long, it’s essential for homebuyers to understand that the products are quite diverse. Each make and model enjoys distinguishing features that may make it the best option on the market. For example, consider the diversity of these options.

Common Single Wide Mobile Home Sizes

Modestly Sized Single Wide Mobile Homes

The Casa De Ceilo (Palm Harbor), for example, is a 500-square-foot single-wide home constructed in one 14 x 37 section. Ranked among the least expensive on the market, the 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom home makes remarkable use of space and enjoys large windows for natural light. Other examples of cozy single-wide homes include the Paradise, and Golden Series, among others.

Mid-Sized Single Wide Mobile Homes

The CM2562L (Champion) model delivers 747 square feet of living space and ranks among the average size and cost options. The 1-section home runs 14 x 56 feet with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. Its open floor plan, and sizable closets make it a popular family home. Other mid-sized single-wide homes include the Perris, and Coconino, among others.

Large Single Wide Mobile Home

The K1676H2 (Karsten) is an expansive one-section home runs 16 x 76, and enjoys 2 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms with 1,178 square feet of living space. It ranks among the best cost-effective options for home buyers with an eat-in kitchen, large family room, and plenty of natural light throughout. Other large single-wide homes include The Loft, and Barton, among others.

How Much is a Single Wide Mobile Home

Double Wide Mobile Home Sizes & Dimensions

Double-wide manufactured homes earn their name because they are constructed and transported in two sections. These mobile homes are seamlessly joined and set up on location. On the modest side, double-wides can run a low as 704 square feet or as large as 2,300 square feet. Much of that living space will be driven by state regulations regarding transportation. However, this class of mobile homes generally runs between 1,000 and 2,200 square feet. Standard double-wide size is very popular with first-time buyers and those that are looking for the second one to buy!

Common Double Wide Mobile Home Sizes

Modest Double Wide Homes

The River’s Edge (Palm Harbor) ranks as a prime example of a modestly sized 2-section home. At 972-square-feet of living space, it features 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, at 27 feet long and 42 feet wide. The open floor plan includes an eat-in kitchen and expansive windows for natural light and views. Its cottage-style exterior makes it an eye-catching and popular home. Other homes in its class include the Marana, and Santa Fe, among others.

Standard double-wide size is one of the main categories of mobile homes as they reach the needs of many people. On the other hand, some people prefer to avoid the standard double-wide size and add their own creativity to the structure. Customized mobile homes can be tricky to obtain as there are size regulations and limitations as talked above but if the changes do not interfere with the transportation it can be possible to add sections.

Mid-Sized Double Wide Mobile Homes

At 1,404 square feet of living space, the Mount Vernon features 3 bedrooms, including a large master bedroom. Its open floor plan creates a rare spaciousness with a large kitchen and living room area and runs 27 feet wide by 52 feet long. Others in its class include the Williamsburg, Goldenwest Spruce, and Four Peaks.

Large Double Wide Mobile Homes

The Pecan (Champion) ranks among the largest 2-section homes on the market and supports the space needs of growing families. It offers 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms while running 36 feet wide and 76 feet long. The interior includes a stunningly spacious open floor plan with luxury amenities such as a center island that doubles as a breakfast counter, and walk-in closets. Others in its class include the Pinehurst, and Karsten RC11.

Triple Wide Mobile Home Sizes & Dimensions

Also known as multi-section manufactured homes, this class is transported in 3 sections. They also are seamlessly integrated at the property and add sizeable space advantages for home buyers. They largely run 2,000 to 3,000 square feet and rival large single-family site-built options in terms of luxury, while far outpacing their counterparts in terms of cost.

At the top end of the size scale, the Casita enjoys 2,810 square feet of living space, 4 or more bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and totals 43 feet wide by 74 feet long. It offers a formal dining room, spacious living room, and kitchen with a center island that doubles as a breakfast counter. All this is immersed in an open floor plan that makes the home feel vast beyond its substantial square footage. Others in its class include the Santa Fe (2921A), Golden Exclusive (662K), and Yosemite 7684T.

Manufactured Home Ceiling Heights Meet Regulations

Because manufactured homes must conform to state transportation guidelines, the maximum allowable height stands at 13 feet, 6 inches from the ground to rooftop. This generally equals the ceiling height norm in site-built homes, which typically runs between 9 and 10 feet. With the exception of custom-designed site-built models, ceiling heights are roughly the same.

Older (Pre-HUD) Manufactured Home Ceiling Heights

Before HUD implemented quality regulations for mobile homes back in 1976, models generally mirrored the low ceiling heights of their site-built counterparts. These ran between 7-8 feet. Homebuyers may recognize that both types of construction of the 1970s and older have relatively low ceilings.

New Manufactured Homes Have Higher Ceilings

The on-site and manufactured home industries have kept pace with each other. Beginning in the early 2000s, standard ceiling heights increased to approximately 9 feet. A transported manufactured home runs 13 feet, 6 inches. Once you subtract 4 feet and 6 inches for the attic, manufactured homes come in around 9 feet.

Along with ceiling height, other manufactured home specifications are also comparable. For example, a mobile home wall height averages about 9 feet. Mobile home door height is typically 32 inches wide x 76 inches high, and the average height of a crawl space under a manufactured home can range from 28 to 42 inches. For those who want manufactured homes with high ceilings, there are custom designs available.

Does Home Size Affect Pricing?

The commonsense way of thinking about manufactured home size and pricing revolves around square footage and the number of sections. But it’s also important to keep in mind that purchasing a manufactured home involves a significantly different process.

Homebuyers work with customer service professionals that review a family’s needs. These include the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, living space, and other needs. From there, everyday people have an opportunity to customize their unique dream home. This often involves luxurious bathrooms, next-generation amenities, high-end flooring, skylights, and expansive windows, among others. That’s why the cost can vary between size, sections, and amenities. This process is also why people on a budget can get what they truly desire in a cost-effective fashion.

Which Mobile Home Size Should You Select

Growing families would be wise to choose a model with spare rooms. For example, a young couple may want to consider a model that has at least three bedrooms and two bathrooms to accommodate children. This way of thinking sidesteps the need to buy a larger home later or relocate.

Downsizing as children grow into adulthood and begin families of their own will allow homeowners to repurpose those additional rooms for home offices or a place for future grandchildren and guests to stay over. Given the significantly lower down payments and monthly mortgage payments of manufactured homes and the fact they are financed with HUD supported FHA loans, opting for additional space tends to be the smart play.

Size Guide! What Size Osprey Pack Do I Need?

Table of Contents

Osprey packs are just as good as any quality bag you’ll find in the market. They are comfortable to use, innovatively designed, and versatile. So, there’s no uncertainty about the storage capacity, comfort, or durability of these packs. You’ll find all that information from the bags’ specifications without any measurements. Instead, what most people want to know is, ‘what size of Osprey pack do I need?’

If you are curious to discover the Osprey pack size that’s best for you, then you’re in luck. We’ve gathered the information and tips you’re looking for in this size guide. So, you’ll find everything you need to know about Osprey pack sizes and how to fit them. But that’s not all. You’ll *also learn how to measure the body parts that determine which pack to get by yourself.

Strap up and get ready for the exciting ride we’ll be taking you on in the next few minutes.

What Osprey pack sizes are available for men and women

Osprey has many pack styles in its collection, and the company started producing women-specific packs in the early 90s. So, before you find answers to your googled question (‘ what size of Osprey pack do I need’), you first need to know the available sizes for each gender.

Here are the Osprey pack sizes that you can choose from:

How to Know which Osprey pack size you should get

You should not pick the wrong Osprey pack for your hiking and traveling trips. If it’s too small, then everything you need to carry won’t fit in the pack. And even if it does, you’d be putting a lot of pressure on your shoulders, back, and waist. Doing this can lead to serious injuries to those body parts and ruin your chances of getting the best hiking, riding, or traveling experience.

On the other hand, using an Osprey pack that’s too big will also not work. It won’t fit perfectly on your back and shoulder. You’ll even be tempted to put more than you need in it or use it as a trash bag.

So, there’s no question. You need to use the correct Osprey pack size. But how do you know which one to get? We have highlighted a couple of factors that’ll help you determine the perfect size for you. Dive in!

General features that affect which Osprey pack you should go for

1. The length of your torso

Osprey packs have different designs. Another thing that distinguishes them from one another is that they come in different sizes to fit different torso lengths. The torso is every part of your body apart from your head, arms, legs, and neck.

So, for you to pick the Osprey pack size, you need to know how to measure your torso.

How to measure your torso for Osprey backpack

Follow these steps when measuring your torso :

(i) Find the C7 vertebra in your neck: This vertebra is quite easy to locate. All you need to do is bend your head down when standing upright, and you’ll find it.

But if you can’t locate the C7 vertebra this way, here’s another method to try. Run your fingers from one shoulder to the other. Midway through the movement, you should feel a vertebra at the neck’s base. This C7 vertebra is the starting point of your torso when measuring downwards

(ii) Locate your iliac crest: This refers to the top of your hip bones. It forms the bottom part of your measurement and is rather easy to locate. Just place your thumb at the mid-point between your hip bones to mark this position.

(iii) Take your measurement from the C7 vertebra to the iliac crest.

2. The Harness sizing

Not all Osprey packs have interchangeable harnesses. So, you don’t need to consider this feature for all packs. Currently, only Osprey Ariel, Atmos, Aura, Aether, Xena, Xenith packs have shoulder harnesses you can swap.

For these packs, the harness should end between 2 to 3 inches below the armpit. But this only applies when using a pack that corresponds to the correct torso length.

The webbing on the pack shouldn’t touch the sides that are beneath the padding.

3. The circumference of your hip

Lastly, the circumference of your hip is another feature that affects which Osprey pack you need. A hip belt that fits would wrap your hip bone firmly and be centered around them. The ends of the belt should also be 3 to 6 inches apart and they should be 3 inches away from the hip crest.

The circumference of your hips is not a major factor that’ll affect what size of Osprey pack you’ll need. That’s because many Osprey packs have adjustable hip belts. And, you can get a custom-made hip belt if it isn’t adjustable.

Steps to picking the right size of Osprey pack for you

Now that you know the features that determine Osprey packs sizing and the available sizes, let’s look at how to pick the right one for you.

Prices pulled from the Amazon Product Advertising API on:

Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date/time indicated and are subject to change. Any price and availability information displayed on [relevant Amazon Site(s), as applicable] at the time of purchase will apply to the purchase of this product.

You can get the right one if you follow these three easy steps:

1. What do you need the Osprey pack for?

It’s pretty obvious, but we think we need to reiterate it. The first step to picking the right Osprey pack size is to determine what you want to use it for.

As you know, Osprey packs have many uses. For example, the company groups its packs for men and women into three categories; ‘outdoor,’ ‘hydration,’ and ‘travel’ packs. In the unisex collection of packs, it categorizes them as ‘outdoor,’ ‘hydration’ and ‘active everyday’ packs. Lastly, the category for children is only ‘outdoor’ and ‘hydration.’

So, picture this. You just traveled to your dream resort and want to go hiking. And since you rather not leave your things in the hotel, you decide to carry your pack with you. The only problem is that this pack is for hydration and not outdoor use. So, even though you picked out a small-sized Osprey pack, it wouldn’t be the best one for you.

So, given the differences in design between Osprey packs, you must acknowledge what you want to do with it first.

A small outdoor pack won’t work as a small hydration backpack.

Available Osprey Packs and their Use

Unisex

Women

2. Determine what you need to carry in the pack

Understanding what you need to carry in the pack is also key to choosing the right one.

Here’s a rule of thumb that should help you:

This rule of thumb depends on the length of your torso.

For example, let’s say your torso measures 18.7 inches. If you want to go hiking, then you should only be looking at outdoor packs. A pack like Aether Pro allows small or medium packs for this torso size. So, what you need to carry in the pack would determine which Aether Pro to get.

3. Measure the length of your torso and determine what size of Osprey pack is best for you

The last step is to use your body measurements to determine which size is best for you.

Here’s an Osprey size comparison table :

The different types of Osprey packs are available in only one size (O/S). They are suitable for children above five years.

How to Fit Osprey Backpacks

Getting the correct Osprey pack is one half of the puzzle. The other is ensuring that it fits perfectly. So, you could get the right size for you, and it won’t still be comfortable to use if you don’t know how to adjust it.

Osprey has recommended that you get the right fit from their retailers only. However, what happens when your kid loosens the straps or someone else wears your pack?

You’ve got to learn how to get the right fit by yourself. Here’s how to adjust Osprey backpacks in five easy steps:

Step 1: Put some things inside it

There’s no way you can get the right fit if there’s nothing inside. That’s because it is from the weight of the pack that you’ll be able to know how to adjust it. So, the first step in adjusting your pack is to put things in it.

Weights of 20 to 30 pounds should do just fine. However, if you use an extra-large or large Osprey pack, then you’ll need about 40 to 50 pounds of weights. But that’s not all. You’ve got to make sure that these weights are evenly distributed in the pack.

A comfortable Osprey pack isn’t a luxury. If the weights aren’t distributed properly, it could cause injury to your body over time. So, always make sure the weights are distributed evenly before you continue fitting the Osprey pack.

Step 2: Adjust the hip belt

Quite some Osprey packs have hip belts. In getting the right fit for your body, start by loosening all the straps on the pack. But this shouldn’t be done only when you want to fit the hip belt. It’s a good practice to take these straps off every time you remove the pack.

Once the hip belt strap is loose, buckle the straps. The goal is to ensure you snug it down so that it sits just on top of your hip bones. If you don’t feel comfortable, then you can adjust the strap’s exit angle. Women always have to adjust this because of the structure of their hips.

Step 3: Adjust the shoulder harness

There’s no pack without a shoulder harness. Therefore, if you care about your comfort, you must get the right harness fit for your body.

Many Osprey packs allow you to adjust the torso length. So, you can move it until it stays comfortably on your back.

Pull down the straps of your Osprey shoulder harness to adjust it. But not only vertically. You have to pull backwards as well. Adjusting your Osprey backpack this way ensures that the pack moves closer. It also makes sure that you carry only a part of the weight that’s in the pack.

To add to that, you need to be sure that your shoulder straps are airtight. There should be no space between the blades of your shoulder and the harness itself. However, your harness shouldn’t make it difficult for you to breathe. Ensure that it doesn’t put too much pressure on your collar bone.

Step 4: Get the right fit for your pack’s load lifters

As the name implies, the load lifters are those parts that help you carry the weights. They join the upper section of your Osprey pack to the shoulder straps.

To adjust the load lifters on your back, pull the two ropes. The optimal angle is to have them at 45 degrees. This angle is measured from the line drawn from where they meet the pack. However, for packs that carry a lot of weights, you can set this angle at 60 degrees.

Be careful when adjusting the load lifters of your Osprey pack. Tightening them could cause a gap to form between your harness and shoulder. So, always adjust the shoulder harness before getting the right fit for the load lifters.

Step 5: Adjust the sternum strap and its clips

The last thing to do in getting the right fit for your Osprey pack is to adjust the sternum strap. By fastening it, you’d be pulling the strap away from the areas that have a lot of veins and nerves. Again, make sure it is comfortable to wear and not too tight.

If you feel you’re not breathing properly while you have your pack on, unclip the sternum strap and adjust it.

Tips For Finding Your Perfect Size

Try shoes on in the late afternoon when your feet are at their largest due to normal swelling.

Check that your heel fits snug with no slipping. The midfoot of the shoe under your arch and over the top of your foot should be snug but not tight. You should have enough room in the toe box to wiggle your toes.

Choose the larger size if your feet are between sizes. You can adjust for a better fit with socks, insoles and lacing patterns.

Have your feet re-measured every year. Feet typically get bigger with age and women’s feet often become a half size or more larger after pregnancy.

Be sure to try shoes on both feet. Your left and right feet may differ in length or width as much as a full size. Always buy shoes that fit your larger foot.

Watch out for signs that your shoes are too small or narrow: feet cramping and falling asleep while running or the formation of calluses and blisters in between or on your toes. People are more than twice as likely to buy a shoe that is too small than too big.
