History of king size mattress
- Initially the size of the king size bed or mattress was around 72 inches by 84 inches which is now standardized as per the requirements of the people. If you talk about US, then California was the first state to adopt the idea and manufacture the king size mattress. The mattresses are still famous with the states name.
- Eventually other states in the country also adopted the business idea and started working on the same. The mattress really got its name because of the big mattress manufactured for the king in UK long time back.
- The king is gone but the name got stuck. Americans normally used to prefer twin size beds or queen size beds with the increasing awareness about the bigger size mattresses has changed their preference.
The term “king size” or “queen size” literally came into view in early 1950s when the manufacturers started making bigger mattresses and even bigger beds. Now you can find king size mattresses in almost any material, color, style and design. However, before you buy, you need to check the foam and the coir quality, along with the surface thickness of the mattress.
