Pair a Split King Mattress with Adjustable Base

What Size of Mattress?

There are a couple different options when it comes to pairing a mattress size with the Split King adjustable bed.  Using a traditional King mattress  or a Split King mattress is one way to go.  The 76”x 80” king mattress size will fit the bed base. Keep in mind that if this size is coupled with the base, the sides must be synced to move together.  However, to take advantage of the bed’s full functionality, two Twin XL mattresses (split king)  can be used.  These will be 38”x80” each with the seam allowing the bed to be un synced.  This allows the ability to move each side on its own.

Split King vs King

The difference between a Split King vs King adjustable bed can be confusing.  That’s because both styles can come as two bases.  This aids in transporting the bed and fitting it through tight hallways and doorways for setup.  The primary difference is that a Split King will always be split vertically to allow for independent positioning. If a traditional King comes as two pieces, it will come split horizontally.  A single King measures 76” by 80” whereas a Split King adjustable bed will be two bases that measure 38” by 80”.
