Has anyone had experience with a flare mattress? Good and bad issues. Thank you.

Thank you for your comments. We bought a flare mattress - King Coil XL 250 three weeks ago and love it! It seems to give us so much more room than a regular queen but uses our queen headboard and footboard. Deep pocket queen sheets fit fine. It doesn't look "funny" as I thought it would - nobody would notice the trapezoid shape unless you pointed it out to them. The edges are firm so you can use the whole mattress. We are thrilled with this new very clever mattress.

Nancy.  Happy you are happy with the mattress.  What are the actual dimensions?  Mattdud

The queen flare is 66" wide - 10% wider than a regular queen. It's amazing how much extra room that seems to give.

Nancy2014.  Very interesting.  Such a wide bed.  I don't understand how regular queen mattress sheets will fit it.  An additional 6 inches is a lot.  Mattdud
