With several different names to indicate the variations in size, choosing between the many king size beds and mattresses on the market today is often considered by many to be a rather daunting task. Although, by simply learning of the different types first, and what you should be looking for before even shopping for a new mattress, you will be better able to make sense of the myriad of choices of king sized mattresses available.
Choosing the Best King Size Mattresses
Adjustable King Size Bed
Choosing the best king size mattress for you is first and foremost purely a matter of personal preference, as everyone's comfort level and needs are different. Always consider your own individual needs in terms of both space and support, regardless if one brand is recommended over another.
If length is of more concern as opposed to width, the Western, or California king size mattress would be the best choice as they are ideal for people who are over six feet tall. But, if width is more important than the actual length of the mattress, opt for the Standard, or Eastern king size mattress that is four inches wider than the former, but also four inches shorter.
Remember that partners should always shop for mattresses together, especially when it comes to the king size variety where there are a few different types to choose from. Also, when shopping in a mattress store, be sure to lie down on the mattresses you are considering to see if it feels right to you, whether or not it offers the type of support you are looking for, as well as enough room for the two of you to sleep comfortably. If you are looking for used king size mattress, you may try searching in online mattress stores or auction sites like ebay.
Different Types of King Size Mattresses
Air Mattresses: Today, air mattresses encompass a wide variety of unique types, including the portable and easy to store air mattress, as well as the more complicated models that feature pockets of air within the mattresses' chambers in place of the usual metal coils.
Futon Mattresses: Mattresses for futons are, in general, relatively thin, unless they are purchased separately, where one can then decide on the thickness and type of materials they are most comfortable with.
Latex Mattresses: Latex mattresses are a popular choice although they are a bit more expensive than their traditional counterparts. Latex conforms to the body, making it possible to alleviate pressure on the back, neck and legs, and is also a material that is ideal for allergy sufferers as it is hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites.
Memory Foam: Memory foam mattresses utilize a technology known as visco-elastic foam that has the ability to retain its shape over time while providing continual comfort by relieving pressure. The materials used to create memory foam king size mattresses are also heat sensitive, allowing the body to better regulate its temperature while molding to its exact, precise shape.
