What is a super king size mattress?

A super king size mattress is the largest standard size mattress that you can buy, and a luxury option for large bedrooms. They are usually 6’0” wide by 6’6” long, which makes them perfect for a couple, especially if someone in the couple requires those extra few inches to fully stretch out.

In order to fit a super king size bed into your bedroom, you’ll have to have plenty of space to ensure that your bed fits where you want it to go. It’s a good idea to measure the space where you’d like your bed to go before purchasing it, to avoid disappointment if your bed doesn’t fit when it arrives.

How big is a super king size mattress?

What types of super king size mattresses do you stock?

At The Bed Warehouse Direct, we offer a variety of super king size mattresses that are created using a combination of traditional and modern methods, and automated techniques. 

These different types of construction methods are used to produce high-quality super king size mattresses, which you can find out more about below:

Super king size open coil mattresses

A super king open coil mattress is made using individual steel coils that are connected to each other. 

The edges of the mattress are reinforced with a thicker gauge steel, making it suitable for firmer or orthopaedic mattresses. However, it's worth noting that while some people may find these mattresses beneficial for back support, it may not be the case for everyone.

Super king size pocket spring mattresses

A super king size pocket spring mattress is composed of individual steel coils that are encased in fabric. This design allows each spring to move independently, providing customised comfort and support that conforms to the sleeper's body shape.

Super king size memory foam mattresses

The memory foam super king size mattress is a great choice for those looking for a comfortable and responsive surface. 

These mattresses are created by bonding together various types of foam to reduce pressure points, however, one common issue with traditional memory foam mattresses is that they tend to trap heat, making it hard for some users to move around comfortably. 

However, the good news is manufacturers have come up with solutions such as incorporating cooling foam or latex-based foam layers to address this issue, making the memory foam mattress a great option for a comfortable and cool night's sleep.

Super king size hybrid mattresses

A super king size hybrid mattress is designed to give you the best of both worlds, combining the traditional benefits of spring mattresses with the modern technology of memory foam. This creates a versatile and comfortable sleeping surface that is sure to provide you with a great night's sleep. 

This hybrid mattress is a great option for those who want the support of a spring mattress as well as the pressure relief of a memory foam mattress.

What's the best super king size mattress for my sleep position?

The best super king size mattress for you will depend on your preferred sleep position.

Front sleeper

If you're someone who sleeps on their front, it's crucial to choose a firm super king size mattress. This is because a soft mattress can cause your hips to sink too far, resulting in lower back pain. 

It's worth noting that sleeping on your front can be a sign of a pre-existing lower back condition, so if possible, it's best to avoid this position. However, for those who can't change their sleeping position, a firm mattress is an essential choice to help alleviate any discomfort.

Back sleeper

For those who sleep on their back, a medium-firm super king size mattress is the ideal choice. This type of mattress should be firm enough to keep your hips in alignment, but also soft enough to adapt to the curve of your lower back, providing a perfect balance of support and comfort. 

A medium-firm mattress will help keep your spine in a neutral position and reduce any pressure points, making for a comfortable and restful night's sleep.

Side sleeper

For those who sleep on their side, having a responsive mattress is essential. A mattress that allows your hips and shoulders to sink in while still providing support for your waist is ideal. 

Depending on your body shape, a soft super king size mattress may be the best choice.

This type of mattress will conform to your body and provide the needed support for your hips, shoulders, and waist. It will also help to reduce pressure points, allowing for a more comfortable night's sleep.

How much does a super king size mattress cost?

When it comes to purchasing a new super king size mattress, it's important to remember that investing in a quality product can have long-term benefits for both your physical and mental health. 

Assuming a new super king size mattress lasts around 8 years with 2 people sleeping on it, even a higher range super king size mattress from £600 would be costing each sleeper from as little as 10 pence per night.

A mid-range super king size mattress costing between £300 and £600 would work out at between 5 pence and 10 pence per sleeper per night.

Finally, if you were to buy a cheap super king size mattress for less than £300 that could be as low as just 4 pence per night per person.

How do I choose the right super king size mattress for me?

It's crucial to figure out what level of comfort you're after when looking to purchase a new super king size mattress. 

Take a moment to think about what you liked about your old mattress when it was new, and what you wish you could change about it now. It can also be helpful to think about a time when you slept exceptionally well on holiday and try to replicate that mattress's feel.

It's also important to consider how your own body shape and weight will affect your mattress choice. Keep in mind that product descriptions and firmness guides are based on average body types, so a mattress that feels comfortable for one person may not feel the same for someone else with a different body shape or weight.

Don't hesitate to take a look at the resources available on our website such as our FAQ videos, Bed Buyer's Guide, and our blog. We've tried to provide as much information as possible to help you make the important decision of choosing the best mattress for you.
