Who should buy a Texas King mattress
Tall sleepers whose feet hang off a King or a California King. At 98 in, it is 14 in longer than a California King, the longest standard size. Two adults get 40 in of width each (our calculation), a little more than on a King.
If you need room for children or a dog, width matters more than length: look at the Wyoming King mattress (84 × 84 in) or the Alaskan King mattress (108 × 108 in) instead.
Check the orientation before you order
Most makers list the Texas King at 80 in wide and 98 in long. A few also sell the same footprint turned sideways, 98 in wide and 80 in long. In a bedroom those are two very different beds, so make sure the mattress, the frame and the sheets all use the same orientation. Everything on this page is 80 × 98 in.
What to plan around the mattress
- Frame: a King or California King frame is too short. Our Texas King platform bed frame is made for 80 × 98 in.
- Room: about 11.7 × 10.7 ft with walking space on three sides (our calculation). The bedroom size calculator checks it against your own walls.
- Delivery: each product page gives the build time and how the mattress ships. If a staircase or doorway is tight, email us before you order.
