King Mattresses Australia
Share a bed without feeling cramped. A king bed mattress gives you extra width for calmer sleep, fewer elbows, and room for kids or pets on weekend mornings. If you’re moving up from a queen mattress, this is the sweet spot for space without taking over the whole room.
At Levede, our king range focuses on three things: support that lasts, comfort that suits your body, and straightforward value — whether you’re after a firm mattress, a plush feel, or an option that pairs well with a king mattress topper and king mattress protector for easier care.
Shop by What Matters
Firmness & Feel
Pick the feel that suits your sleep style. Side sleepers usually like gentle pressure relief around the shoulders and hips. Back and stomach sleepers often prefer extra support to keep the spine aligned. Our range spans Soft, Medium, Firm, and Extra-Firm so you can choose your comfort level with confidence.
Sleep Needs
-
Cooling comfort: Breathable covers and airflow-friendly foam layers reduce heat build-up on warm nights.
-
Pressure relief & back care: Zoned support and quality foams ease joint pressure and keep posture in line.
-
Motion control: Pocket springs and foam layers soak up movement for a more peaceful night’s sleep.
Height & Build
Prefer a slimmer profile or a plush, hotel-style build? Our king size mattresses range from 25–35 cm (model-dependent). You’ll find memory foam, pocket spring, and hybrid constructions so you can match comfort and support to your body and sleep habits.
King Mattress Size (Australia)
A standard Australian king mattress size is 183 cm wide × 203 cm long — the same length as a queen, with 30 cm more width. Always check listed king mattress dimensions before you buy.
Room-Fit Tips
- Aim for roughly 1 m walk space on at least two sides.
- Check doorways, stairs, and lifts for delivery clearance.
- Smaller room? A queen mattress is still a solid choice; check out our queen memory foam mattress deals during seasonal promos.
King vs Super King
Super king is 203 × 203 cm. If your room is generous or you often share with kids or a pet, consider stepping up to a super king mattress.
Why Choose a King
-
More personal space: That extra 30 cm of width lowers partner bump-ins and rolling to the middle.
-
Better for light sleepers: Less movement transfer means fewer wake-ups.
-
Family-friendly: Enough surface for story time, sleepy toddlers, or a lazy Sunday with the dog.
Types of King Mattresses for Every Sleeper
Memory Foam King Mattresses

Can’t decide between foam and springs? Hybrid mattresses combine pocket springs with comfort foams, balancing contour and lift across all sleep positions.
Key Benefits:
- Softness + support in one build
- Better cooling through the spring core
- Reduced partner motion transfer
