BED question

Any ladies have a california king bed?? FH is 6'7' so we NEED one - i dont want to get a king now and then get the cali king that we really need bc the odds of getting a newer bed set is slim, besides he still hangs off the King bed!

My apt is 11.8 x 16. Its 16 long. SHould that fit? It should right?

It sounds like it should fit because the mattress can bend. Just be careful with box spring. FH and I live in the basement of his parents house and we had to get twin box springs because they wouldn't fit down the stairs. I would do some research about that but other than that I think it will fit.

eeesh that's cutting it close! would you ever be able to MAKE the bed? I have only actually seen CA Kings in hotel rooms though so I really don't know....FH is only 6'2', so he fits in a queen!!

my fh is 6'4' ans his feet hang off our king.

Id the cal king longer, but narrower or is it wider, but shorter? i forget..either way its only a few inches difference so if the king fits, the cal king should too

Re: BED question

thanks so much!

So i need 7 feet for a mattress and about another foot for a headboard right?

so thats 8 feet - i only have about 4 left - so is it wise to put a dresser in front of the bed? im guessing 2 feet wide so theres room to walk?

Im trying to get furniture together lol
