King vs. Cal King for RV King :-)

The DW is asking. Which size king sheet best fit a RV king bed (72 x 80)? A regular king set (76 x 80) or a California King set (72 x 84)? Seems like a wash but one must have a slight advantage over the other.

  • Big Katuna, I went with your suggestion and ordered a set from Camper King. Didn't know that option was available.

    Thanks for all your feedback.
  • Regular king sheets are usually square 78x80 on fitted. I would use Cal king. JMHO

    I did. It is 72 x 80.


    Then I'd get on EBay or Amazon and buy a 72x80 RV KING set from Camper King.

    I would go with the longer if you are tall and the wider if normal height so the bottom is less likely to move (more under the mattress) when you roll over.
    Or you can buy one of each and report back.:B
