King Single Size Mattress

A standard Australian King Single measures:
Width: 107 cm
Length: 203 cm
Surface Area: Approximately 2.17 ㎡

Note: It is 15 cm wider and 15 cm longer than a standard Single (92 x 188 cm).

The Pros
Extra Length for Tall Sleepers: At 203 cm, it is the same length as a Queen or King bed. This prevents feet from hanging off the edge, making it the ideal choice for tall teenagers and adults.

Enhanced Elbow Room: The extra 15 cm of width compared to a standard Single provides a much more comfortable "spread" for restless sleepers who toss and turn.

Space Efficiency: It offers a more "adult" sleeping experience than a Single while still being narrow enough to fit into small bedrooms, studio apartments, or home offices.

Long-Term Investment: Because it accommodates growth spurts and adult dimensions, a child is unlikely to outgrow it until they move out, providing better value over 10+ years.

Great for Guest Rooms: It is a sophisticated compromise for guest spaces, offering hotel-standard length and comfort without the floor-space dominance of a Double bed.

The Cons
Specific Bedding Required: Standard Single sheets, mattress protectors, and bedspreads will not fit. You must purchase specific "King Single" linen, which can sometimes be slightly more expensive.

Single Sleeper Only: Despite its name, it is strictly for one person. It is not wide enough for two adults, and it can be a tight squeeze for parents trying to co-sleep or read stories with a child.

Larger Footprint: While it saves space compared to a Double, that extra 15 cm in both directions can make a difference in very tight rooms where every centimetre of walking space matters.

No. A King Single is designed strictly for one person. At 107 cm wide, it does not provide enough safety or comfort for two adults. If you need a bed for two people, a Double (138 cm wide) is the minimum recommended size.

Growing Teenagers: The extra length ensures their feet don't hang off the edge.

Tall Adults: Provides a "proper" bed length without taking up the width of a Queen.

Guest Rooms: Offers a more premium experience for adult guests compared to a standard Single.

Studio Apartments: Perfect for solo dwellers who need to maximise floor space for a desk or lounge.

Choose a King Single if:
You are a solo sleeper with a very narrow room.
The sleeper is tall (it is actually 15 cm longer than a standard Double).
You want to maximise floor space for other furniture.

Choose a Double if:
You sometimes have two people sharing the bed.
You are a "starfish" sleeper who needs maximum width (it is 31 cm wider than a King Single).
Your room is wider rather than longer (a Double is 188 cm long, making it easier to fit in shallow rooms).

To create a room that feels spacious and functional, you need to consider more than just the mattress size—you need to consider your lifestyle. Here is a refined, step-by-step process to ensure your new bed fits perfectly into your daily routine:

1. Capture the Total Footprint Start by measuring the full length and width of the room. Knowing your total floor space provides a clear "boundary" for your layout and prevents you from overcrowding the area.

2. Account for Furniture "Clearance" Map out existing pieces like desks, wardrobes, or bookshelves. Crucially, measure the swing of all doors—including the bedroom entrance and closet doors. You need to ensure they can swing fully open without colliding with the bed frame.

3. Prioritize "The 60cm Rule" A common mistake is forgetting the space needed to move. To keep the room from feeling cramped, leave at least 60–70 cm of open pathway around the sides and foot of the bed. This creates a comfortable flow and makes it easier to change the sheets.

4. Verify Your Bed Frame Dimensions If you aren't buying a new set, measure the internal dimensions of your current bed frame (where the mattress actually sits). This ensures a snug fit for your new mattress and eliminates awkward gaps or overhangs.
