King Size Beds
Bed and Mattress Sizes
The meaning of "King Size" varies according to country. In the USA, a King Size Bed is
larger than a Queen Size. However a UK "King Size" bed is about the same as an American
Queen Size! These differences are especially important when buying bed linen etc
online.
Regardless of country, the King Size bed and mattress gives more space per person the the
more common Queen Size (USA) or Double (UK).
"Standard" bed and mattress sizes vary. You should always check before buying, but usually
the dimensions for a King size bed/matress are:
| USA | | 76" x 80" | | 38" x 80" per person |
| UK | | 60" x 78" | | 30" x 78" per person |
