About this tool

Standard bed pillow, pillowcase and decorative cushion sizes.

How to use Pillow Sizes

  1. Find the pillow type in the tables.
  2. Compare sizes in inches and centimeters.
  3. Match pillows to your bed width.

Worked example

A king bed usually takes two king pillows (20 × 36 in) or three standard pillows.

Are pillow sizes the same in every country?

No. The US, UK and Europe use different standard sizes, so check the chart for your region and the product’s own measurements.

Why do inches and centimeters not match exactly?

Products are made to round numbers in one system, so the other system’s figures are rounded conversions.
