Alaskan king bed
A kind of bed · also called Alaska king bed
About
The Alaskan king bed is an oversized custom mattress that measures nine feet across on each side.
It is significantly larger than a standard king bed, which measures 6.3 feet (1.93 m) wide by 6.7 feet (2.03 m) long. The square shape creates 81 square feet (7.5 sq m) of usable surface area, giving multiple sleepers ample room. Because of its extreme width and weight, it often cannot fit through standard doorways without being folded or built in separate pieces.
From Wikipedia
Standard bed sizes are based on mattress dimensions, which vary from country to country. Bed sizes may also vary depending on the design and ornamentation of the bed frame.
