Explore the range of king bed bases

Are you thinking of upsizing to a king size bed? Perhaps you’re looking to replace your current king bed. Either way, you’ll need a new bed base for your king mattress. Whether you’re looking for a bed base with storage, an adjustable base or a simple base to match your sleep space, Snooze has styles to transform your bedroom into a sleep haven.

What is a king size base?

A king bed base is designed to fit a king mattress. Measuring at approximately 183cm wide and 203cm long, they’re a great choice if you prefer a more spacious sleep set up for you and your partner. Keep in mind that the exact size of the bed base may vary, so it’s always best to check the specifications of your chosen design.

There are plenty of benefits to finding the right bed base for your space. Not only do they provide a stable sleep surface, but they also provide your mattress with the proper support, so that it can support you night after night. Elevating your mattress off the floor can improve airflow, which helps regulate temperature and reduces the risk of mould or mildew. It may also help minimise exposure to dust and other allergens compared to placing the mattress directly on the floor.

Choosing the right king size bed base

When it comes to choosing a bed base for your sleep space, there are a few different things to consider.

The first is whether you need extra storage. A king bed base with storage is perfect for storing away extra quilts, blankets or pillows. A gas lift base is a great option, allowing you to take advantage of forgotten space under your bed. Alternatively, a king bed base with drawers could be more to your taste. So long as you’ve got enough room to open and close drawers around your bed, a base with drawers provides easy access to your belongings, helping you keep your sleep space clutter-free and organised.

Love the idea of being able to adjust your bed? We also have adjustable bases so you can adjust the angle of your head and legs to suit your activity. Whether you’re reading a book, or just unwinding with a warm drink, adjustable beds are a great choice. Just be sure to pair it with a compatible mattress.
