Default Help!

I have a Select Comfort king mattress and need sheets to fit the older mattresses that specified fitting 9-12" in depth. Does anyone have any idea where they can still be purchased? A new mattress isn't an option. Thanks for any help you can give me.

The least deep sheets I could find online so far fit up to 18". Would those still be too deep?

oops, I guess I misunderstood. I thought you wanted deep pockets. I've never measured or had any problems buying fitted sheets.

Have you checked out places like Big Lots, Tuesday Morning or similar stores that have previous seasons or discontinued merchandise?

Bigger/deeper pockets shouldn't be a problem; they'd just give you more tuck under I would think.
It's having too shallow a pocket that is the pits! Have you tried deep pocket sheets?

I don't understand if you need bigger surface sheets or deep corner sheets. The California King size is the biggest surface area sheets.
