Your Guide to the World of Incredibly Large Mattresses
Do you think the king size bed is big? King size beds for lovers. You may think you’re dominating your sleep cycle, but you can get much larger mattresses than your standard 76×80-inch king or even the slightly larger 72×84 California king. You can buy mattresses so big that you’ll have a hard time finding a bedroom big enough to fit them, mattresses so big that you’ll have to remodel your whole life because of their sheer heaviness.
How big can a mattress be? Why do you need a bed the size of an aircraft carrier?
Stupidly big beds
If you’ve slept on a king and found yourself still feeling cramped, you have a few larger options to choose from:
- Wyoming King. Wyoming, as a state, is known for being quite large, so the name fits. His eponymous mattress is simply huge – the smallest of the oversized mattress category, a statement that demonstrates that language no longer matters. It’s also a bit unusual because it’s square, 84×84 is 7 square feet. This mattress is ideal for people who often cram a third person into their bed – like a child who loves to cuddle with their parents or a huge dog who thinks he’s still a puppy. The Wyoming King is 12 inches wider than the California King, which means you can easily fit an extra person (or dog) in it without kicking each other.
- Texas king. They say everything is bigger in Texas. When it comes to mattresses, this seems to be quite true as the Texas King measures a whopping 80×98 inches. While slightly narrower than the Wyoming King, the extra length is over 8 feet. This mattress is ideal for very tall people who struggle with death-sized mattresses. If you’re missing eight feet, I’m concerned, but you have another option.
- King of Alaska. Hello boy, this is a big ass bed. The King of Alaska measures 108 inches by 108 inches or 9 square feet. Dear lord. Who needs such a big bed? Well, people who have more than one baby “co-sleeping” with them will love the space this bed provides (also if you have a family situation like John Denver’s ” Grandma’s Featherbed “). Also, very tall people may like the extra space that ensures none of their oversized limbs dangle off the bed. Another reason you might need Alaskan King is its unmatched traffic isolation : if you have a different schedule than the rest of your colleagues, you can get in and out of Alaskan King without disturbing someone sleeping in a different time zone. on the other side.
As you can see, most large size mattresses are mainly suitable for families who sleep together. But don’t let that stop you from asserting dominance in your social circle by installing the largest bed known to mankind in your room.
