Dual Eastern King Waterbed

Best Dual King Size Waterbed Mattress

If you're treating yourself to a new bed or indulging in the idea of something nicer - like a dual king-size waterbed mattress, you've probably seen a few different terms for a dual king bed, including an Eastern king bed.

An Eastern king is simply another term for a regular king mattress used to differentiate itself from a California King Size Mattress. So, in general, there are only two types of standard king size beds, which also apply to waterbeds:

King aka a standard king, traditional king, or Eastern king
California king aka the Cal king or Western king

Dual king-size waterbed mattresses are a luxurious, customizable, and advanced sleeping solution that is just perfect for some people. It's a unique and slightly more complex bed choice than your single standard king, so it requires some research and testing before you commit. That said, the added benefits make a dual king bed worth the effort.

One of those often-heard and often-misunderstood terms is "split king." Most people understand that it's a bed type, but what, exactly is it, and why should you consider getting one?

What Is The Difference Between A Dual Eastern King Mattress And A King Mattress?

A Dual King waterbed is also called a Split King bed. The main difference between a Dual Eastern King Size Waterbed Mattress And A King Size Waterbed Mattress is a king-sized bed divided into two twin-sized areas, each with its mattress. Dual Kings are often nothing more than a standard king-size bed with a pair of twin mattresses in the consumer bed market, but premium adjustable Dual King beds are more flexible.

People often wonder if adjustable waterbeds are good for side sleepers. The answer is yes! With an adjustable bed, you can elevate the upper portion of your body into a comfortable position, and so take some pressure off your hips, neck, and shoulders. Combine this method with a proper waterbed mattress, and you're in for a great night of sleep.

Many people find the investment in an adjustable bed worth the money since they provide various sleep-promoting benefits. These bases make it easy to find the most comfortable position for sleep, and they also provide relief for sleep disorders like sleep apnea and conditions like acid reflux.
