Who this size is best for

Couples who want more sleep space and rooms that can handle the extra footprint.

What to measure before you buy

Check center support, slat spacing, and whether the headboard makes the frame too deep for the wall.

  • Outer frame width and depth, not just mattress size.
  • Doorways, stair turns, and elevator dimensions.
  • Nightstand width and walking clearance on both sides.
