Here, the biggest one that is as readily available as aquatic weed control is the Queen size bed. That is 60 inches by 80 (or sometimes 78) inches.King size bed (76 x 80 inches) is not readily available here or you have to go through a lot of stores before you can find one. That’s my dream bed size. With a family of four kids, we need the biggest bed possible. California King size bed (72 x 84 inches) is not available here, I think. Although we can always have the bed size we want, the problem would be finding the the mattress and bed cover that would fit.
