Wyoming King Mattress Dimensions

Last updated Researched from published specifications and owner reviews, not tested in person

Quick answer

A Wyoming King mattress measures 84 inches wide by 84 inches long (213 by 213 cm), which is 49 square feet of sleeping surface. Shared by two people that is 42 inches each. This is a specialty size rather than a standard one, so dimensions vary between manufacturers.

The wyoming king is a specialty size, which means the 84 by 84 inch figure below is typical rather than guaranteed. The numbers that actually decide whether it works in your bedroom are the room it needs and the height it ends up at, both of which are below.

Convention, not a standard

This is widely repeated guidance rather than a measured standard. Treat it as a starting point.

How much room does a wyoming king bed need?

Add about 3 inches of frame on each side, then the walking clearance you want. The convention is 24 inches to squeeze past and 30 or more to be comfortable.

Frequently asked questions

What are the dimensions of a wyoming king mattress?

A wyoming king mattress measures 84 inches wide by 84 inches long, or 213 by 213 centimetres. That works out to 49 square feet of sleeping surface. This is a specialty size, so confirm the exact figures with the manufacturer before buying a frame or bedding for it.

How big a room does a wyoming king bed need?

For comfortable movement, allow the mattress plus about 3 inches of frame on each side plus 30 inches of walking clearance. For a wyoming king that means roughly 150 inches of room width and 120 inches of length. You can get away with 24 inches of clearance, but a nightstand will crowd it.

What size sheets fit a wyoming king mattress?

Buy sheets labelled wyoming king. The fitted sheet also has to clear the depth of the mattress, so check the pocket depth separately: standard pockets fit up to 12 inches, deep pockets 13 to 17 inches, and extra deep pockets 18 to 22 inches. A topper adds its full thickness to what the sheet must clear.

Is a wyoming king long enough for a tall person?

A mattress should be about 4 to 6 inches longer than the tallest sleeper. At 84 inches, a wyoming king suits someone up to roughly 80 inches tall, which is 6 feet 8 inches. Above that, look at an even longer specialty size.

Does wyoming king refer to thickness as well?

No. Size describes only the width and length. Thickness is separate and ranges from about 6 inches to over 16, with 9 to 12 inches counting as standard. Thickness changes the total height of the bed and the sheet pocket depth you need, but it never changes the 84 by 84 inch footprint.

How to read the numbers on this page. Standard mattress and bedding dimensions are industry-wide and the same across manufacturers. Guidance like replacement intervals, firmness by body weight and walking clearance is convention rather than a measured standard, and every table here says which it is. Where a manufacturer does not publish a figure we leave it out instead of estimating. This is not medical advice: a mattress is not a treatment for a medical condition, and persistent pain is a reason to see a clinician.
