King size bed frames vary in sizes. This can be quite surprising if you’re buying a bed for the first time, as most people think that a king size is…well, a king size, and that’s it. Unfortunately, it is not that simple. There are two types of king size beds: a Standard King, also called an Eastern King, and a California King, also known as a Western King. If you’re a tall person, it would be best to go for a California King Bed Frame, as it is approximattely four inches longer than the standard King Size (at the same time it is also slightly narrower).

A California King Bed Frame is 72″ wide and 84″ long, which makes it the longest bed frame available. The good thing about it is that it is not only long but also wide enough for two people to sleep comfortably. Keep in mind, however, that this kind of bed frame is very large, so if you have a rather small bedroom buying one might not be a wise choice.

You can get California King Bed Frames in a number of places online. Overstock.com is a very good store, and the beds they are offering are solidly built and stylish. The downside is the price. The prices vary from about $700 to $2500 and beyond.

If you’re looking for something cheaper, Amazon.com and Walmart.com are the two stores to go. The prices for a California King Bed Frame are in the range of $90-$500 which makes it far more reasonable.
