This page is for buyers who already know they want a queen. If you are still comparing dimensions across every South African size, start with the complete mattress size guide. If you are pricing a full bed, base plus mattress, the beds for sale in South Africa hub covers complete sets. Everything below is queen specific: who the size suits, live prices across all four ranges, and whether it will fit your room. Ready to browse instead? Go straight to the queen mattress collection.
Who a queen mattress suits
Queen is the size most South African couples end up choosing, and the arithmetic explains why. At 152 cm wide, a queen gives each of two sleepers 76 cm of personal width, a clear step up from the 68.5 cm each that a double allows. That extra room is what stops the midnight tug of war over space, especially when one partner turns often in the night.
It is not only a couples size. Solo sleepers who like to stretch out, sleep diagonally or share the bed with a book, a laptop and occasionally a dog find a queen the most comfortable size that still fits a normal main bedroom. And because queen is the most widely sold size in the Mr Mattress range, every one of the four ranges, from budget to premium, is listed in queen.
Queen mattress prices in South Africa
These are live Mr Mattress prices, checked on 19 July 2026. Every option below ships free anywhere in South Africa and carries the 365 night home trial.
| Queen (152 x 188 cm) | Mattress only | Base set | Warranty |
|---|---|---|---|
| Comfort Foam | R3,699 | R4,499 | 3 years |
| Active Foam | R5,199 | R5,999 | 10 years |
| Hybrid | R7,199 | R7,999 | 10 years |
| Revive Memory Foam | R7,199 | R7,999 | 10 years |
Choosing between them: Comfort Foam suits guest rooms and lighter sleepers on a budget, Active Foam is the firm everyday workhorse for back and stomach sleepers, Revive Memory Foam contours for side sleepers, and the Hybrid pairs a Bonnell steel coil support core with foam comfort layers for heavier sleepers and anyone who prefers a springier feel. The mattress firmness guide walks through matching a feel to your sleep position and weight.
What queen mattresses cost in South Africa right now
When we checked pricing at major South African retailers in July 2026, queen size mattresses from brands like Cloud Nine and Sealy Posturepedic commonly ranged from around R3,800 at the entry level to R15,000 and up for premium models. The Mr Mattress queen range runs from R3,699 for Comfort Foam to R7,199 for Revive Memory Foam, mattress only, covering the same entry-to-premium spread at a lower ceiling, with free delivery and the 365 night trial included at every price point.
Will a queen bed fit your room?
A queen bed works best in a bedroom of at least 3 x 3 metres. The bed itself occupies 152 x 188 cm, and leaving roughly 60 cm of walking space on each side plus room at the foot keeps the bedroom practical rather than cramped. In main bedrooms of 3.5 metres and wider, a queen still leaves comfortable space for wardrobes and side tables. If your room is tighter than about 3 metres in either direction, compare the double before committing.
Frame pairings are simple, because every Mr Mattress foam mattress sits directly on a solid platform with no box spring needed. The Drawer Base in queen (R2,799) adds storage drawers under the bed, the popular pick for rooms where floor space is tight. The Sleigh Bed in queen (R4,999) is the full upholstered frame with a curved headboard, in Blue Suede, Grey Suede or Charcoal. Or take any queen as a complete base set at the prices in the table above.
Frequently asked questions
What size is a queen mattress in South Africa?
A queen mattress in South Africa measures 152 x 188 cm. That makes it 15 cm wider than a double (137 x 188 cm) and 31 cm narrower than a king (183 x 188 cm). All standard South African mattress sizes share the same 188 cm length, so the width is the real choice.
How much does a queen mattress cost in South Africa?
Mr Mattress queen prices, checked live on 19 July 2026: Comfort Foam R3,699, Active Foam R5,199, Hybrid R7,199 and Revive Memory Foam R7,199 for the mattress only. Complete queen base sets run from R4,499 to R7,999. Every queen ships free anywhere in South Africa with a 365 night home trial.
Is a queen bed big enough for two adults?
Yes, comfortably for most couples. A queen gives each person 76 cm of width, noticeably more than the 68.5 cm each on a double. If one of you is a restless sleeper, or you share the bed with children or pets, the step up to a king adds another 31 cm of width.
What room size do I need for a queen bed?
A queen bed works best in a bedroom of at least 3 x 3 metres. That leaves roughly 60 cm of walking space on each side of the 152 cm wide bed plus room at the foot. In larger main bedrooms of 3.5 metres and up, a queen leaves space for wardrobes and side tables.
Which queen mattress should I choose?
Match the mattress to the sleepers, not the other way round. Comfort Foam suits guest rooms and lighter sleepers on a budget, Active Foam suits back and stomach sleepers who like firm support, Revive Memory Foam suits side sleepers, and the Hybrid's Bonnell steel coil support core suits heavier sleepers and anyone who prefers a springier feel.

What to check before you buy any mattress
- Published foam density. Active Foam is 50 kg/m3 and the Revive has a 65 kg/m3 core, printed on the product so you can compare like with like.
- Weight rating. The Revive is rated to 140 kg per sleeper, so check the rating for the heaviest person in the bed.
- Trial and warranty terms. Ours is a 365 night home trial, a 30 day money-back guarantee and a fixed written warranty that is never pro-rated.
- The base. A worn or sagging base can undo a new mattress, so a base set is worth considering.
- The pillow. A pillow that suits your sleeping position matters as much as the mattress for neck comfort.
Signs your current mattress is the problem
A visible dip where you sleep, waking stiff most mornings, noisy springs, or a mattress that is more than 8 to 10 years old are the usual signs. A mattress is a comfort product, not a medical treatment, so speak to a doctor about persistent pain.
