Buying a too-small mattress is one of the biggest mistakes new bed-buyers make
King (NZ)
NZ King-size mattresses measure 168cm wide x 203cm long, the same length as a Queen mattress but with extra width. This makes them a practical choice for couples who want more personal sleeping space or for those who share their bed with children or pets. A NZ King mattress provides added comfort without overwhelming the room and fits neatly into most standard primary bedrooms.
For guest rooms, an NZ King mattress is slightly smaller than a Super King (183cm x 203cm), making it a smart option when space is limited. It still offers generous room and ensures guests enjoy a supportive, comfortable mattress without requiring the footprint of a larger bed.
King bed sizes for consideration are.
- King (NZ) Mattress – approx. 168cm x 203cm
- Super King Mattress – approx. 183cm x 203cm
- California King Mattress – approx. 203cm x 203cm
