RV mattress sizes
RV mattresses come in their own sizes, and many are shorter or narrower than comparable home sizes. Mattress Insider's RV chart lists the RV Short Queen at 60 × 74 or 60 × 75 in, 5 or 6 inches shorter than a home Queen (60 × 80 in), and the RV King at 70 × 74, 70 × 80 or 72 × 80 in, 4 to 6 inches narrower than a home King (76 × 80 in). The names are not standard, so measure the bed platform and buy by the measurements, not the name.

RV sizes: Mattress Insider RV mattress size chart (main chart), checked 2026-09-24. Home sizes: Target. The last column is our comparison. On Sleep Foundation's 38 in Twin width, the 38 in RV Twin sizes match the home Twin and Twin XL exactly.
Two tables on the same page disagree
The Mattress Insider page has a second, standard-sizes table that disagrees with its main chart on these names. We list both instead of choosing one:
- RV King: The main chart lists three RV King options; the page's standard-sizes table lists 72 × 78 in.
- RV Full: The main chart lists RV Full Size as 53 × 75 or 54 × 75 in; the standard-sizes table lists RV Full as 48 × 74 in (and a separate Full at 53 × 74 in).
- RV Short King: The main chart lists 72 × 74 and 72 × 75 in; the standard-sizes table lists Short King as 72 × 80 in.
- RV Bunk: The main chart lists six RV Bunk sizes; the standard-sizes table lists RV Bunk as 34 × 74 in, which is not one of them.
- RV Queen: The main chart lists RV Queen as 60 × 80 in and calls 60 × 74 in a Short Queen; the standard-sizes table lists RV Queen as both 60 × 74 and 60 × 80 in.
- RV Twin: The main chart lists RV Twin as 38 × 75 in; the standard-sizes table lists Twin as 38 × 74 in.
Standard-sizes table rows as listed: RV Bunk 34 × 74 in; RV Full 48 × 74 in; RV Queen 60 × 74 in or 60 × 80 in; Short King 72 × 80 in; Twin 38 × 74 in; RV King 72 × 78 in.
RV sizes to scale
Common questions
Can I use a regular mattress in my RV?
Only if the platform takes a home size. The RV Full Size at 54 × 75 in, the RV Queen at 60 × 80 in, the RV Standard King at 76 × 80 in and the RV California King at 72 × 84 in are the same as home sizes; a Short Queen or an RV King is not.
Is an RV King the same as a home King?
No. The chart's RV King is 70 or 72 in wide, 4 to 6 in narrower than a home King. A 76 × 80 in mattress is listed separately as the RV Standard King.
What is a 70 by 80 RV mattress?
One of the three RV King sizes on the chart: 6 in narrower than a home King and the same length.
How do I measure for an RV mattress?
Mattress Insider's advice: measure the platform space the mattress occupies rather than the old mattress, leave an inch or two along the sides for bedding, and measure the platform-to-ceiling distance for bunks.
Home sizes are on the bed size chart; for sheet depth, see fitted sheet pocket depth.
