Regional labels still vary.

Retailers can round metric conversions, offer special sizes, or use the same label for multiple lengths. Measure the actual mattress, bed frame, and bedding before purchasing.

International comparison

Closest does not mean interchangeable.

The nearest equivalent is calculated from width and length differences. Bedding compatibility also depends on mattress depth, product tolerances, cover construction, and the amount of drop or tuck you want.

Use the international converter to compare these records against every other country in the dataset.
