Correct size
What is the correct size mattress for a king size short? I just do not know why I’m coming up with so many different measurements?

The sizes may vary. My trailer has what they called a king size bed. No mention of anything special. I measured it then bought a standar king to replace it. I had to add 2 inches to each side of my frame but the length was the same. If you buy one of the popular foam matresses in a box, you can remove the cloth cover and cut it to any size you want with an electric knife. then reinstall the cloth cover. Much cheaper than ordering a special size.

the "Standard" RV King is really an Olympic Queen. I did just the opposite of B.O. I cut a couple inches off each side of the plywood base and put in a standard Queen bed. I now have an extra couple of inches on each side of the bed to move around.
