Not every bedroom has space for a queen, and not every sleeper needs one. A double mattress sits in that sweet spot: noticeably roomier than a single, yet compact enough for spare rooms, teenagers' bedrooms, studio apartments and first homes. At OZ Design Furniture, we help Australians find the right double bed mattress for the space they actually have.
A standard Australian double measures approximately 138 cm wide and 188 cm long. That gives a solo sleeper plenty of room to stretch out, and it can comfortably host a couple for a few nights, which makes it a favourite for guest rooms. Because it's narrower and shorter than a queen, it also leaves more floor space for a desk, wardrobe or reading chair.
The double size mattress suits a surprising range of households. It's the natural next step for a growing teen who has outgrown a single bed. It's a smart choice for a guest room where comfort matters but space is limited. It works beautifully in apartment and townhouse bedrooms, and it's a sensible pick for downsizers who want a proper bed without the bulk.
Every double mattress in our range is available in firm, medium or soft comfort levels. Think about who will be sleeping on it most often. A guest room might suit a medium feel that pleases most visitors, while a teenager's room might call for the firmer support that keeps a growing body well aligned. If you like to sink in a little, a soft option provides cushioned, cosy comfort.
As a family-run business that has been part of Australian homes since 1979, we know that even the spare room deserves a well-made mattress. Our philosophy is simple: we make products for life. That means choosing mattresses built to hold their shape and support over years of use, so you're not back shopping again in a season or two.
You can browse our full collection of double mattresses online at your own pace, or visit one of our showrooms across New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria, South Australia and the Australian Capital Territory to try them in person. Our team is always happy to talk through room sizes, comfort preferences and who the bed is for.
Once you've found the right fit, explore our bedroom collections for a double bed frame, bedside tables and homewares that complete the room. A smaller bedroom can still feel thoughtful, comfortable and welcoming, and we're here to help make it happen.
