I have owned a king bed for 40 years. The king mattress is 78 X 80 inches. So, basically it is more like a square. I find either direction my fitted sheets go on pretty much the same.

Even though it's only a few inches if you don't get them right I find one end is too loose and the other too tight so they sometimes pop off the corners. Someone told me that you can tell which way they go because the manufacturers tag showing content should always be at the bottom left of the bed as you face the head of the bed from the foot. has anyone else heard this and know if it is true?
That is what I had heard also, and it works for me.

I suggest trying them both ways, and deciding which is better. Put a small safety pin in a certain corner--then just remember what the pin means!

I am going to look for the little tag next time I change sheets. Usually, I put the fitted sheet on whichever way it lands when I throw it down.
