Bed Bases

Choose from Our Complete Range of Bed Bases

The right bed base provides essential support for your mattress and helps extend its life. Our range covers different base types and sizes to match your setup.

Bed Base Types and Options

Ensemble bed bases combine a supportive base with your mattress as a matched system. These work particularly well with innerspring mattresses and provide a stable, supportive foundation.

Slat bases feature timber or metal slats that support your mattress from beneath. They work with most mattress types and allow airflow underneath your bed. Some of our bases include storage drawers built in, making them practical for bedrooms where extra storage space matters.

Bed Base Sizes for Every Mattress

We stock bed bases in all standard Australian sizes. Single bed bases and king single bed bases suit children's rooms and smaller spaces perfectly.

Double bed bases offer a step up in size without taking over the room. Queen bed bases remain the most popular choice for couples, while king bed bases and super king bed bases provide maximum sleeping space.

Each base is designed to pair with the matching mattress size for proper support and fit.

Matching Your Base to Your Mattress

Different mattresses work better with certain base types. Innerspring mattresses typically pair well with ensemble bases or firm slat systems. Memory foam and latex mattresses need solid support from closely-spaced slats or a solid platform.

FAQs

What's the difference between a bed base and a bed frame?

A bed base is the supportive platform that sits directly under your mattress. A bed frame is the decorative structure that surrounds the base and mattress, often including a headboard. Many modern bed frames have integrated bases built in, while traditional setups use separate pieces. Our team can help you work out what combination suits your needs best.

Can any mattress be used on any bed base?

Most mattresses work with most bases, but matching them properly matters for comfort and durability. Innerspring mattresses suit firm support from ensemble or slat bases. Memory foam and latex need close slat spacing or solid platforms. If you're buying a new mattress and base together, our cOMFy experts will ensure they're properly matched.

Do I need both a bed frame and a bed base?

Not always. Many modern bed frames include an integrated base, so you just add your mattress on top. Traditional bed frames need a separate base to support the mattress. Ensemble beds combine the base and mattress as one system and may not need a frame at all. Check the product details or ask our team about what's included with your chosen frame.

What size bed base should I buy?

Your bed base size must match your mattress size exactly. A queen mattress needs a queen bed base, a king mattress needs a king base, and so on. If you're unsure about your current mattress size, measure it or bring the dimensions when you visit one of our stores. Our experts can confirm the right base size for your setup.
