King Size Mattresses

What size is a King size mattress?

The Simba King Bed mattress is suitable for all standard UK King size beds, measuring 150cmW x 200cmL; the depth of your king size mattress depends on the range and model you choose. We also offer a range of the slightly wider European Queen Mattresses, and for an even more luxurious sleep space have a look at our Super King Mattresses.

Why choose a King size mattress?

King size mattresses generally offer plenty of sleep space without taking up the whole bedroom; they’re perfect if you like to stretch out, and they’re ideal for couples.

Back and side sleepers need zoned support for areas like shoulders and hips, while front sleepers need reliable support to promote the correct alignment of the neck and spine.

Both our Hybrid® king size mattresses and our Green Organic king size mattress offer excellent support for all sleeping styles; the combination of our patented titanium micro springs with pressure relieving foam or organic latex keeps your spine and body comfortably and correctly aligned however you sleep.

Which is Simba’s best king size mattress for limiting partner disturbance?

Whether you just have different routines, or one of you is a light or fidgety sleeper, being woken up by your partner is one of the most common sleep problems.

Our unique Aerocoil® springs in our Hybrid® and Green Organic king size mattresses are specifically designed to offered tailored support to each partner, and to prevent the transfer of movement from one partner to another; their conical design means they compress inwards rather than sideways, and their small but mighty size, means they’re able to work unnoticed at the top of the mattress for optimum efficiency.

You may not be aware, but your body temperature naturally drops a few degrees when you sleep; that process is interrupted or even blocked if you’re too warm and sharing a bed can make it worse.

But the good news is that all our king size mattresses are designed to help keep you cool; patented Aerocoil® springs push air gently through the top layers of the Hybrid and Organic mattresses, while our Hybrid® and foam mattresses feature our Simbatex® foam which offers 30 x cooler airflow than dense sticky memory foam. The Green Organic king size mattress uses latex instead of foam, but Latex is a breathable material and we’ve added perforations to further encourage airflow through the mattress.
