We have the memory foam mattress that Newell puts in the newer coaches.
The size is 66" wide x 79" long x 9" thick with the rounded ends.
The size is between queen and king size and smaller in length and width than the Cali-king.
Anybody has a suggestion where to buy sheets that fit properly? Other than Newell

Forrest I was told the best thing to do is take your existing sheets to a seamstress and buy king sheets . Have her cut to match..
Did you buy your mattress from Newell?

Cindy just figured out it is an Olympic queen size 66x80
The mattress came from Newell but was put in just before the previous owner sold it. Along with the new leather couch, microwave, and a bunch of other things.
Looks like it is a fairly common size at Amazon, Sears, and a bunch of other places. I told Cindy as long as it doesn't have lace I don't care what color.

Forrest,
We just use king size and stuff the extra under the mattress. If you have sheets made I would wash first before I had them fitted. I had a set made to size with a real high count cotton and after laundering they were to tight.

Forest,
We bought our sheets at Sam's club and then had them sewn to fit.

Forrest how do you like the mattress? Is it better than the ones they used to have?

Not quite as good as the Tempurpedic my son is baby sitting for me but much lighter.
It is still very comfortable and doesn't transfer any movement like a regular mattress.
Not sure who makes the mattress, you'd have to ask at Newell.
