Alaskan King Bed Company Mattress Review

The Alaskan King Bed Company makes giant hand-built mattresses up to 13 ft wide, for families who share a bed with kids and pets. The Original is a firm 11-inch eco-foam and cotton mattress that starts near $2,950 on sale. It's best if you need an oversized custom size. But mattresses are final sale, with no returns or exchanges once delivered. You should be certain about the size and feel before you order. Call the brand if you're unsure.

Back, stomach and heavier sleepers can pick The Original for its firm, supportive feel. Hot sleepers can look at The Royale (cashmere, cotton and latex airflow) or the Grand Royale (open-cell latex plus HyperCool). Couples, kids and pet piles get undisturbed room in any 108x108 or Biggie width. You can pair it with the brand's oversized frames.

Side sleepers who want deep pressure relief have no dedicated soft option. The brand does not publish one (checked September 2026). Some buyers report that the Medium comfort feels extra-firm. Call +1 877 267 7772 before you order.

The Original is $2,950 on sale for the Mini 96x96, Shorty 108x80 and Shorty L 108x84. It's $3,300 for the Standard 108x108 and Shorty XL 108x96. It's $3,700 for the Biggie Jr 120x108, $4,600 for the Biggie 144x108 and $5,600 for the Biggie Max 156x108. Regular prices run $3,950 to $6,600. The Royale starts at $3,500 on sale (regular $5,500). The Grand Royale starts at $10,000.

It's fair value for a custom USA-made giant mattress with no mainstream rival at these widths. But you get poor flexibility, since mattresses are final sale with no trial. Financing at 0% APR is offered, subject to credit approval. The brand's oversized protector starts at $325.

The Original has an organic-cotton quilted cover for pressure relief. The comfort layer is eco-friendly latex-like foam that's cooler than memory foam and bounces back. The brand says it's free of harmful chemicals. The foams are CertiPUR-US certified, over supportive base layers. The brand does not publish the full layer order or thicknesses (checked September 2026).

The Royale has a cashmere cover with organic cotton and natural latex comfort layers. The Grand Royale has a natural latex core with a cashmere cover and HyperCool cooling technology. Every model is hand-built to order in North Carolina. You can get custom dimensions by phone.

You can expect it to hold up like a typical quality foam or latex mattress over its 10-year warranty term. The warranty covers visible indentations over 1.5 inches and foam splitting or cracking. The maker chooses repair or replacement. The two-sided Grand Royale should wear longer if you flip it.

The brand does not publish independent long-term durability testing (checked September 2026). For care, use the brand's oversized protector and a properly sized rigid foundation. Rotate it per the maker's guidance.

On-site reviews show 351 evaluations, with 306 (87%) in the top bracket. Buyers praise roominess for partners, kids and pets, balanced supportive comfort, sturdy build and helpful staff.

Grievances include deliveries far past the 1 to 3 week estimate ("9 weeks still no bed") and misrouted parcels. Others say the Medium feels extra-firm, the platform supports are stubby and oversized duvet covers need two people. We couldn't verify BBB, Trustpilot or Google ratings.

You can buy direct at alaskankingbeds.com, which sells mattresses, frames and bamboo and cotton bedding. You can visit the showroom by appointment through the site's scheduling link. The brand does not publish a street address (checked September 2026). Call +1 877 267 7772 for custom sizes.

We found no retail or wholesale partners, and no Amazon, Wayfair or Costco listings.

Every order includes free curbside delivery. The Grand Royale includes in-home delivery with packing disposal. Mattresses ship folded in half to fit regular doorways, and they need no assembly. Reviewers say frames are simple to assemble.

Made-to-order lead times run about 1 to 3 weeks. But reviewers report multi-week delays, so confirm timing before you order. The brand does not publish old-mattress removal (checked September 2026).

The brand does not publish a sleep-trial period (checked September 2026). Its policy says, "Mattresses and furniture are not eligible for returns or exchanges once delivered." The same final-sale rule covers exchanges.

You can return unopened bedding within 30 days. You pay return shipping and a 10% restocking fee. Sale bedding is final sale. Shipping, taxes and discounts show at checkout.

Mattresses carry a 10-year limited warranty for the original buyer in the US (excluding territories) and Canada. It isn't transferable. Trade customers get 3 years. It covers indentations over 1.5 inches, foam splitting or cracking and zipper flaws. The maker chooses repair or replacement.

Sheets and protectors get a 1-year limited warranty. Furniture and frames get 2 years. Disputes go to confidential binding arbitration in North Carolina. The brand does not publish full claim shipping and handling terms (checked September 2026).

Against standard kings (76x80), there's no contest on space. Alaskan King starts at 96x96 and runs to 156x108. But it costs far more and it's final sale. Wyoming King and other giant-bed makers sit under the same "A Custom Mattress Factory" family. The brand does not publish head-to-head comfort or price tests (checked September 2026).

Against mainstream luxury latex like Savvy Rest and PlushBeds, the natural-materials story is comparable, with cashmere and latex. But it publishes fewer firmness choices and offers no trial. Against bed-in-a-box brands, it's the opposite model. You get a made-to-order USA build with delivery options instead of compressed fast shipping.

We read the brand's own product, policy and warranty pages, then checked retailer listings and public complaint sites like the Better Business Bureau. We last checked everything here in September 2026. Prices and policies change, so confirm them on the seller's page before you buy. You can read more in our methodology and editorial policy.
