A cali king takes 4 inches off the length and adds it to the width. As someone who also deals with feet hanging off, I prefer those inches to be on the length.
Are you for real rn? You could have 84 inches of length and 72 inches of width by just rotating the bed 90 degrees so you’re basically laying on it “sideways.”
Side note: it’s been fun talking to someone who also ninja-edits all their comments to add additional clarity while the other is responding. Somehow the resulting conversation was still productive and readable.
I was super confused about that previous comment until I realized you thought I meant to rotate the regular king for more length, but then when I finally found the words and posted a reply, you had edited it and I just had to delete the whole thing anyway because now it wouldn’t make sense to anyone looking at the whole back and forth lol
Similarly, you first posted only the first sentence of your response 🤣 also it turns out I was misinformed, and had king and Cali king dimensions swapped, because 2 of the first 5 duck duck go results gave me the wrong numbers. I haven’t edited those numbers since someone else called it out, and their response wouldn’t make sense if I did.
Yeah… As a over 2 meter Peter my partner and I were finally looking at upsizing our bed from a queen, only to discover that a king doesn’t get any longer!
I got a Cali king because it’s the only bed big enough for two that my feet don’t hang off the end of.

Not that it matters since you can rotate, but you do have that backwards. They define the Cali King as the tall one and the King as the wide one.
Just… Turn the bed?
Unfortunately, that’s not how the maths math.
King: 80x76
Cali King: 84x72
Rotating a king gets 76x80

Indeed I am. On god no cap fr fr etc etc.
I bet there’s a market for rotated cali king furniture for tall people.
