Is King or Queen Bed Bigger?

A king bed is bigger than a queen, but the more important point for UK buyers is that king means two different widths depending on which sizing system a listing uses. This guide sets both systems out side by side, showing that an American queen at 152cm is closest to a UK king at 150cm, while an American king at 193cm is wider than a UK super king. It covers exactly how much width each sleeper gets at every size, why length rather than width is often the more useful gain, the room dimensions each option needs, and the bedding mistakes that come from buying to the frame name rather than the mattress....
