Many people often consider buying a super king bed but then worry about the size compared to the other size beds like a double or a standard king size.
Below are approx measurements for the different sized beds that are available to buy, as you can see you get a little more length than a standard double bed and about 19 inches (1.5 foot) extra on the width , this can make a big difference to your sleep as you can see from the Space Per Person that there will be plenty of room to move, yet the main consideration is the 1.5 foot extra on the width of the bed , which should be fine for most standard double bedrooms
