If you're scouring the king mattress sales looking for a comfy large bed for less, you're in luck as I've found three of the best early Black Friday mattress deals right now on king mattresses. The best deal in my opinion saves you nearly $600 off a king DreamCloud Luxury Hybrid at DreamCloud, reducing the price to $999 (was $1,669). But it isn't all about the DreamCloud – there are superb king mattress sales from Nectar and Cocoon by Sealy too.
Not only are these mattresses affordable for a king size, they also make an appearance in our official best mattress guide. That means each mattress has been tested and approved by our panel of sleep experts.
As a sleep writer, part of my job is to check out mattress sales to find great offers on top-rated beds. And this year’s Black Friday deals are the perfect opportunity to get your hands on one of the best king size mattresses for less.
So whether you’re on the hunt for an ultra-soft memory foam king mattress or a budget-friendly hybrid in the sales, these are my top three recommendations…
King size mattress dimensions: how big is a king bed?
A Standard King in the US measures at 76 inches wide by 80 inches long (193x203 centimetres). A Queen measures at 60x80 inches (152x203.5 in centimetres), meaning that a king and a queen give the same amount of legroom.
A queen’s width, however, is 16 inches smaller. Most couples will fare well with either, but if you (or your partner) is plus-sized, prefer to sleep on your back or stomach, or simply sleep better with more space, a king size is the way to go.
Taller people may want to opt for a California King, which (at 72x84 inches) is 4 inches narrower but 4 inches longer. For both US and UK measurements of all mattress sizes, check out our simple mattress size guide.
