A queen bed with mattress set is an excellent choice for couples or individuals seeking extra space to stretch out. Queen mattress dimensions measure 60 inches wide and 80 inches long and comfortably accommodate two adults without feeling cramped. It’s also ideal for taller individuals because of its generous length.
In general, a queen bed frame with mattress set fits well in bedrooms measuring at least 10 feet by 10 feet. If you’re upgrading from a double bed or furnishing a master or guest bedroom, a queen mattress gives you the perfect balance of comfort and practicality, especially for medium-sized spaces.
Know Your Queen Mattresses
Before you go mattress shopping, you should know more about the different types of queen beds there are on the market. Use this quick side-by-side guide to learn which type of queen mattress is best for your sleep style.
| Mattress Type | |
|---|---|
| Queen innerspring mattresses have a coil support system topped with thin padding layers to give you a firm, bouncy feel. They work well for back and stomach sleepers and promote airflow to keep you cool. Prices range from $250 to $900+, depending on quality. While affordable and durable, these mattresses may feel too firm for some and often lack motion isolation or pressure relief for side sleepers. |
| Mattresses that have pocketed coils use individually wrapped coils for excellent motion isolation and targeted support, which is ideal for couples and side sleepers. They give you a mix of firm and contouring comfort. A queen bed and mattress with pocketed coils typically ranges from $500 to $1,500 depending on the brand. These mattresses are durable and minimize motion transfer, but they can feel less breathable than traditional innerspring options. Higher-end models may also stretch budgets. |
| Queen memory foam mattresses conform to the body for pressure relief and minimal motion transfer. They’re great for side sleepers and those with joint pain. Comfort is plush and supportive, but they may retain heat. Prices range from $400 to $1,800. While highly comfortable, they may feel too soft for some and can lack strong edge support compared to other options. |
| A queen gel memory foam mattress goes an extra step beyond traditional memory foam with a cooling gel that regulates temperature during sleep. They provide plush comfort, and pressure relief, and are ideal for hot sleepers and side sleepers. Prices range from $500 to $2,000. While they reduce heat buildup and provide great support, they can still feel warm to some and tend to be more expensive than standard memory foam. |
| Queen hybrid mattresses combine pocketed coils with foam or latex layers, balancing support, bounce, and plush comfort. This type of queen bed frame with mattress works well for all sleeping positions, especially combination sleepers. Prices range from $700 to $2,500. Hybrid beds excel in pressure relief and temperature regulation but may be heavier and pricier. Their versatility and durability make them a favorite for those willing to invest in a quality mattress. |
About Queen Beds
After asking “Is a queen mattress right for me,” the next matter of importance is deciding which type of bed frame works with the type of mattress you ultimately decide on. If you're looking for a queen size mattress, making sure you choose a bases that works with the construction of the model you choose will not only improve your sleep experience but also extend the life of your mattress.
Queen Platform Beds
If you're looking for a queen size bed with mattress that has a low-profile design and built-in slats you may find the platform bed appealing. This design eliminates the need for a box spring. Ideal for minimalist or modern bedrooms, queen platform beds fit well in medium-sized rooms. Although the beds are sturdy and cost-effective, they may sit too low for some, which makes under-bed storage limited or impractical.
Queen Panel Beds
Queen panel beds include a headboard, footboard, and side panels that give you a classic look. They suit traditional or transitional bedroom layouts and pair well with box springs. These beds provide strong support but require more space and can feel bulky in smaller rooms. Prices vary depending on materials and craftsmanship.
Queen Sleigh Beds
Sleigh beds have curved headboards and footboards that add elegance to any room. While stylish and timeless, their bulky frame may overwhelm smaller spaces, and they typically cost more due to their intricate design and high-quality construction. Queen sleigh beds are best suited for large bedrooms as they serve as a statement piece.
Queen Storage Beds
Queen storage beds combine functionality and style with built-in drawers or compartments beneath the mattress. They are perfect for bedrooms with limited space to help reduce clutter. These beds are practical and space-saving, but their heavier frame can make assembly and movement challenging.
Queen Canopy Beds
A queen bed and mattress with a canopy feature four posts and a frame for draping fabric or decorative accents. Ideal for large, well-ventilated bedrooms, they create a luxurious and dramatic focal point.
