Queen Mattresses

(294 products)

A queen mattress suits most couples and main bedrooms. Compare memory foam for pressure relief, pocket springs for bounce and airflow, and hybrids that combine the two, in firm, medium and plush feels. Think about your sleeping position and if you tend to run hot at night. Boxed mattresses need a day to fully expand after unrolling. Pair with queen bed frames, mattress toppers and bed sheets, or see pillows.

How to choose a queen mattress

Height and comfort layers

Mattress height gives a rough idea of how much cushioning you get. A 22 cm mattress is a simple, firmer option for guest rooms or kids. Around 32 cm, euro top designs add a sewn-on comfort layer for a softer feel. At 36 cm, thick memory foam mattresses with cooling gel give deep pressure relief. Check your bed frame and sheets suit the height you choose.

Firmness and sleep position

Side sleepers usually prefer medium to plush so shoulders and hips sink in. Back sleepers suit medium firm, and stomach sleepers usually need firm to keep the spine straight. Couples with different preferences often land on medium firm.

Springs or foam

Pocket spring mattresses have individually wrapped coils that move separately, so you feel less of a partner's movement, and some have zoned support for firmer hold under the hips. All-foam mattresses suit people who like a hug. Look for breathable or bamboo covers if you sleep hot.

Boxed delivery

Many mattresses arrive rolled and vacuum packed. Unroll it on the bed and let it recover its full shape before judging the feel.

Price guide

Queen mattresses start from about $195, with most around $700 to $800. Compare memory foam mattresses, step up to king mattresses, or finish the bed with quilts.

Queen Mattresses: common questions

What size is a queen mattress in Australia?

A standard Australian queen mattress is 153 x 203 cm. The height varies by model, from about 22 cm up to 36 cm in this range. Check the depth if you have a bed frame with a low headboard or fitted sheets with shallow pockets.

How firm is the mattress?

Each listing states the feel, such as medium firm, plush or firm. Medium firm suits most back sleepers and many couples, plush suits side sleepers, and firm suits stomach sleepers and heavier people. Euro top and thick memory foam designs feel softer on the surface.

Does it have zoned support?

Some pocket spring mattresses have zoned support, with firmer coils under the hips and softer ones at the shoulders to help keep the spine aligned. The listing shows whether a mattress is zoned and how many zones it has.

How does a mattress in a box arrive?

Many mattresses arrive compressed and rolled in a box. Carry it to the bedroom, place it on the frame, then cut away the plastic carefully. It expands within hours but can take a day or so to reach full height and firmness. A slight new smell fades within a few days.

Is a memory foam or pocket spring mattress better?

Neither is better for everyone. Memory foam moulds to your body and absorbs movement, which suits light sleepers and side sleepers. Pocket springs feel bouncier and allow more airflow, which suits people who run hot. Hybrids combine both.

Is it suitable for children?

A queen mattress can suit an older child or teenager with a queen bed. For kids, a medium firm feel with good edge support is a sensible choice, and a waterproof protector is worth adding. For younger children, follow the age guidance on the listing.
