I have yet to find someone who brought a king size bed to Italy.  I know the rooms are smaller and the base supplies us with wardrobe closets....should we not bring it?  

I actually know 3 people here who has a king size bed. It all depends on the floorplan that you get. We have plenty of room for a king size and all the extras. I hope this helps and goodluck!

We have a king size bed but we also have the appartment in the 6 unit building.  We have a HUGE master bedroom.  Our kingsize bed with 2 night stands, computer desk, my dresser,my husbands set of drawers, a TV with stand and 2 stands next to it with DVDs. We still have plenty of room to walk around the bedroom.

If you plan to live off base bring it! The houses are huge and there is plenty of room. I don't know about apartment on base.

Thank you!  I was hoping you would say to leave it so we could get a new bed! hahahaha!  

depending on rank..check to see if you are direct assignment...then it depends on how many rooms you get...we have 6 in our family and live on base in a 4 bedroom.  A king size would work but its not the best.  I have a sleigh bed (queen) with the full set of bedroom furniture and it fit with just enough pass thru space...lol...now there is another 4 bedroom floor plan that works great with a king size but the kitchen is smaller and there is no real dining space.  

if your planning on getting new furniture for the bedroom...an your in the states now..get it now..the furniture here is slim picking and sometimes have to wait up to 6 mths to get it if it is special order...and the mattresses are expensive as all get out!!!!

and if your planning on getting italian furniture your gonna want to make sure you buy all the bedding you want before you leave...our stuff doesn't fit theirs and vice versa...

btw..off the subject..you might want to break a small deep freezer..the fridges are small and and not alot of freezer space and no ice.

hope this helps.

Thank you Cat!  We plan to live off base as we have multiple pets....and we are not military (I've read that some military must stay on base I think?)
