A split king is two twin XL mattresses (38 × 80 each) side by side on a king bed. It’s made for split adjustable bases, so each person can raise their side on their own, and for couples who want a different firmness on each side.
We’ve gathered every split king mattress we could find into one list: 203 from 35 makers, in every size they come in.
How we check: Mattresses the maker sells as a split king (two twin XL halves, 38 × 80 inches each, so each side of a split adjustable base moves on its own) or a split California king (two 36 × 84 halves). Check whether the price is per half or for the pair.
