Tip of the Week

How big is a king size mattress? Well, there are several sub-varieties. An ordinary King mattress is 76" wide x 80" long. There is also the "California King", which is slightly narrower and longer at 72" x 84". Finally, you also have the "King Split", which is 78" x 80", and happens to be the same as if you place two Twin Extra Long mattresses together side by side.
