A twin mattress is 38" wide so 41.625" wide seems right for the bed. The measurements are from the widest parts. Think of it as a footprint.
41 inches is just a tad over 3 feet. For a human bed that is not too large. Pictures for showing a.product.from any retail.store.are very difficult to show to exact.scale------as I was taught from a professional car.photographer. Hope this helped bring size to prospective.
