Will a King Size Mattress Fit My Bed Frame?

A king size mattress fits any standard UK king size bed frame, whether it's a divan, ottoman, or bedstead. Always check your bed frame's internal dimensions match 150cm x 200cm before ordering. Keep in mind that the bed frame itself may be slightly larger, depending on its style, so measure your bedroom space accordingly. We recommend leaving at least 60cm clearance on each side for easy access.

How Heavy Is a King Size Mattress?

Weight depends on the materials used. Memory foam and hybrid mattresses tend to be heavier than pocket sprung or open coil designs, thanks to their extra foam layers. We recommend having at least two people when moving a king size mattress due to their heavy weight, especially when navigating stairs and corners.

What Is the Best King Size Mattress?

The best king size mattress depends on how you sleep, your firmness preference and whether you need extra pressure relief. Side sleepers often prefer softer options like memory foam, while back and front sleepers tend to find pocket sprung king size mattresses more supportive.

What Firmness Levels Do King Size Mattresses Come In?

Our king size mattresses come in comfort levels from soft to firm. The right firmness depends on your sleeping position and personal preference. Here's a quick guide:

  • Soft King Size Mattress - Best for side sleepers who need cushioning around shoulders and hips; provides gentle contouring and pressure point relief.
  • Medium Firm King Size Mattress - Suits most sleepers and sleeping positions; balances cushioning comfort with supportive structure to maintain spinal alignment.
  • Firm King Size Mattress - Ideal for back sleepers, front sleepers, and those with lower back pain; offers a stable surface with minimal sinkage.

Not sure which firmness to choose? As a general rule, side sleepers tend to prefer softer mattresses, back sleepers suit medium-firm, and front sleepers often need firmer support. Your body weight also plays a role - heavier sleepers typically benefit from firmer options.

How Much Does a King Size Mattress Cost?

Cost depends on the mattress type, the materials inside it and the comfort technology used. Open coil and pocket sprung king size mattresses generally sit at the lower end, while memory foam and hybrid king size mattresses cost more due to their added layers. A good king size mattress can range from around £200 to £1,000+, so there are options to suit different budgets.
