The queen-size mattress is by far the most popular size mattress in the world for adults, as it's nearly a perfect fit for most people. It's neither too big nor too tiny, so it can appeal to almost anyone. Additionally, due to its popularity, you can accessorise the queen mattress and bed set with the widest variety of duvets, linens, and comforters.
What Size is a Queen Mattress?
Queen-size mattresses are designed to fit queen-size bed bases and can typically fit one, two, or even three persons on a single mattress, making them ideal for master bedrooms and guest rooms. Regarding actual dimensions, queen mattresses measure 1530mm x 2030mm.
How Thick are Queen Mattresses?
In terms of thickness, or depth, there's no standard mattress thickness associated with queen or any other mattress size. Instead, the thickness varies based on comfort and the materials used in the mattress's construction, especially if the mattress has a pillow top. Pocket spring and Bonnell spring mattresses often have varying depths depending on the spring system and foam layers used.
Types of Queen Mattresses
Queen-size mattresses are categorised by their construction type as memory foam mattresses, pocket spring mattresses, and gel mattresses.
Memory Foam Mattresses
Memory foam mattresses are made of high-density foam that contours to the body in response to heat and pressure, providing a comfortable and evenly distributed support. They are soft to the touch and have high energy absorbency. Once the pressure is removed, memory foam mattresses slowly return to their original shape
How Heavy are Queen Mattresses?
Modern mattresses are heavier than your grandma's mattress, as they're made of thicker, denser comfort layers backed up by different hypoallergenic and support technologies. Queen-sized mattresses can vary in weight, with some weighing as little as 17kg and others weighing as much as 70kg. The weight difference is often due to denser and thicker layers in the construction of the mattress.
Is a Queen Mattress Bigger Than a Full-Size Mattress?
Yes, queen mattresses are bigger than Double-size mattresses, whose measurements are 1380mm x 1880mm. That's nearly 154mm smaller in length- and widthwise. These mattresses are smaller than King ones by approximately 100-120mm.
How Many People Fit On a Queen-Size Mattress?
Queen-size mattresses are designed for single individuals or couples, so the number of people that can comfortably sleep on a queen-size mattress is two. With that said, it's not uncommon for young couples to let a small child share the bed with them.
In some situations, these mattresses can actually fit three small children if your little ones like having sleepovers.
How Much Does a Queen-Size Mattress Cost?
The price of queen-size mattresses mostly depends on quality and construction, as well as the softness of the particular mattress. Generally speaking, the more features a particular mattress has, the higher the quality equals a higher price point. However, you can rest assured that OMF always works to keep our prices as low as possible.
