One of the main questions we get is, what is the size of a queen and the split queen adjustable bed and can you use a regular queen mattress on split bases. In this guide, we will explain the main differences and why someone would prefer the split queen over the queen base.
Are are the Queen and Split Queen Sizes?
There are two different sizes of queen adjustable beds. The split queen measures 30 inches in width and 80 inches in length, which requires two bases, while the queen measures 60 inches in width and 80 inches in length. So, the split queen is the same width and length as the queen when both bases are side by side.
Why Would You Need a Split Bases?
The main reason for split bases is that they allow two separate mattresses to move independently. This allows each person to have their own controls. Also, there are times a narrow hallway cannot fit the standard queen base, so it is more convenient to get split bases to fit narrow hallways.
Split Bases Can Use a Single Mattress or Split Mattresses
With split bases, they can use a single mattress or split mattresses. This is because there is a sync cable that connects both bases’ functions together, allowing you to use one single mattress or not use the sync cable for each mattress for each base.
