One size, three names

This is the size where shopping by name costs you money. The same 96 × 96 in square is listed as:

  • Alberta King: one maker, and the usual name in comparison guides.
  • Vermont King: two other makers.
  • A smaller Alaskan King: a fourth maker sells this square as a smaller version of its 108 × 108 in Alaskan King.

If you search only one of the three names, you see a third of the market. Search by inches instead.

Alberta King vs. Wyoming King vs. Alaskan King

  • vs. Wyoming King (84 × 84 in): 12 in bigger each way, 64 sq ft against 49.
  • vs. Alaskan King (108 × 108 in): 12 in smaller each way, and it needs 13 × 10.5 ft of room instead of 14 × 11.5 ft.
  • Who it suits: a couple with two young children, or anyone whose bedroom cannot take a 9 ft square but who finds 7 ft too tight. Three sleepers get 32 in each, four get 24 in each (our calculation).

Every oversized size side by side: biggest bed sizes compared.

Sheets, frames and delivery

Bedding must be bought in 96 × 96 in; King and California King sheets are far too small, and Alaskan King sheets (108 × 108 in) are too big. The frame question is the same as for any oversized bed: check the overall size, the weight capacity and how many boxes it ships in.

How we check these numbers

The 96 × 96 in size is taken from four makers' own listings (list and dates kept on file). Centimeters, surfaces and minimum room sizes are our calculations. Prices are read from the exact 96 × 96 in variant and re-checked every week; the date above is the last check.

The other oversized sizes, side by side: Texas King vs. Wyoming King vs. Alaskan King, and the biggest square against a standard King: Alaskan King vs. King.
