IKEA bed sizes are standard across all their stores in the world, including Australia. However, IKEA bed sizes differ from standard Australian bed sizes. For example, the Australian queen-size mattress is 1 cm wider or longer than the IKEA queen-size mattress. IKEA bed sizes are standard within EU countries and are referred to as 'European mattresses' or 'continental mattress sizes'.

What You'll Learn
IKEA bed sizes in Australia
For example, a standard double bed in Australia has a mattress that is around 200 cm long and 135 cm wide. In contrast, IKEA double beds follow European sizing, with mattresses measuring 135 x 190 cm. This discrepancy in sizing can make it challenging to find sheets that fit IKEA beds in Australia.
Similarly, a standard queen-size bed in Australia has a mattress that is around 202 cm long and 152 cm wide. However, a queen-size mattress from IKEA may not have the exact same dimensions, as they follow European sizing, which is slightly different.
IKEA does not offer a standard twin XL bed frame, so if you purchase one of their twin XL mattresses, you will likely have extra space around the mattress or overhang on the sides of the bed base.
It is important to note that mattress sizing can vary greatly from country to country, and there is no international standard. When purchasing a bed or mattress from IKEA in Australia, it is recommended to refer to their mattress conversion chart and carefully check the specific measurements of the product to ensure a proper fit.

When choosing an IKEA bed or mattress, it is important to measure the bedroom space and know the size of the bed frame to ensure the correct purchase. IKEA provides a mattress size guide to help customers find their perfect fit.

IKEA bed sizes for kids
IKEA offers a wide range of kids' beds, from single beds to extendable beds, loft beds, or bunk beds. The SLÄKT bed frame, for example, provides plenty of room for storage solutions. IKEA also offers a range of toddler beds that are safe and affordable, designed to grow with your child. These beds can be personalised with colourful accessories.

IKEA's single beds are great for young children's bedrooms or smaller bedrooms. They are quite compact, usually measuring 80-90 cm in width and 200 cm in length. Some single beds, such as the MALM bed, feature under-bed storage.

IKEA also offers extendable beds for kids, such as the KRITTER extendable bed, which can be lengthened as your child grows. The extendable beds are designed for children aged 3 and above.
