RV mattress sizes: Short Queen and RV King chart
RV mattress labels describe several compact and vehicle-specific rectangles. Current Short Queen examples are 60 × 74 or 75 inches; RV King examples include 70 × 74, 70 × 80, and 72 × 80 inches.
| Label or calculation | Dimensions | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Short Queen | 60 × 74 or 75 in (152.4 × 188–190.5 cm) | Four to six inches shorter than residential Queen listings. |
| RV King | 70 × 74, 70 × 80, or 72 × 80 in | The label covers multiple current variants. |
| Residential Queen baseline | 60 × 80 in (152.4 × 203.2 cm) | Useful comparison; not a guaranteed RV fit. |
| Residential King baseline | 76 × 80 in (193 × 203.2 cm) | Wider than the RV King examples in this guide. |
Measure the actual platform, corner cuts, radius, hinge, slide-out, and clearance. Vehicle model and label alone cannot guarantee fit.
RV names cover more variation than residential names
Current makers disagree by an inch on Short Queen length and list several RV King widths and lengths. Use a dimension-first order process.
Record the shape, not only the rectangle
Some RV mattresses have cut corners, rounded ends, folding sections, or notches. Trace or diagram these features and follow the manufacturer’s measurement method.
Measurement method
Start with the product and space you actually have.
- 1
Measure the platform. Record the usable width and length inside every fixed edge.
- 2
Map the shape. Note radiused corners, cutouts, hinges, folds, and slide clearance.
- 3
Measure depth. Check vertical room for the mattress and any bedding layers.
- 4
Match finished dimensions. Use the exact product specification rather than the RV label.

Frequently asked questions
Is an RV Queen the same as a regular Queen?
Not always. A Short Queen is typically 60 inches wide but 74–75 inches long rather than the residential 80 inches.
What size is an RV King?
Current examples include 70 × 74, 70 × 80, and 72 × 80 inches, so the written dimensions are essential.
