What is the standard queen mattress size in South Africa?

The checked retailer guidance gives 152 cm wide by 188 cm long. Extra-length queen products can be 152 × 200 cm, so confirm length on the selected listing before comparing prices [1] [2].

Are the four catalogue prices for mattresses only or bed sets?

The four catalogue cards are labelled queen mattress-only and standard length. They are not presented as base or bed-set prices, but the selected product and checkout must still confirm the scope, length and total [1].

Is the R2,999 listing the cheapest queen mattress in South Africa?

No. It is only the lowest displayed catalogue price among these four checked examples on 3 November 2026. The sample does not rank the South African market, and catalogue figures can differ from product-page or checkout prices [1] [4] [5].

Queen Mattress Price Comparison South Africa: Four Catalogue Price Snapshots

Four catalogue price snapshots from one retailer

Mojo Beds’ queen catalogue labels these four products as Queen Mattress Standard Length and mattress-only. On 3 November 2026, its displayed prices were Dream Nights Eco Firm — R2,999; Dunlopillo Go Galaxy Firm — R5,249; Restonic Valora PillowTop Medium — R5,324; and Sealy Festival Plush — R7,699 [1]. These are catalogue-card snapshots, not independently confirmed checkout quotes.

Two other models exposed an important limitation. The catalogue showed Sealy Cambria Firm at R4,499 and Forty Winks SleepTribe Bestie Firm at R3,974 [1], while their linked standard-length queen mattress-only product pages showed R3,449 and R2,849 respectively [4] [5]. Those conflicting figures are excluded from the four-price sample. Do not choose a convenient lower number or assume the catalogue and selected product page agree.

The catalogue gives standard queen dimensions as 152 × 188 cm and distinguishes extra length as 152 × 200 cm [1]. Reconfirm those details on the selected product before relying on a catalogue price. This sample uses displayed promotional amounts rather than crossed-out previous prices.

The lowest displayed catalogue price in this four-item sample was Dream Nights Eco Firm at R2,999 [1].
The highest was Sealy Festival Plush at R7,699 [1].
The sample does not identify the cheapest queen mattress in South Africa or establish any comfort or quality ranking.

What these catalogue figures do—and do not—show

These prices span different brands and comfort descriptions. They illustrate a small part of one retailer’s catalogue, not equivalent mattresses, a market census or a like-for-like value verdict. The catalogue/product-page discrepancies above also show why a final quote requires checking the exact variant and checkout total, rather than relying on a comparison article [1] [4] [5].

The Mattress Warehouse independently states that a standard South African queen is 152 cm wide by 188 cm long and explains that mattresses, bases and bed sets can be stocked separately [2]. The Bed Centre’s queen-filtered catalogue also states 152 × 188 cm and shows mattress products with prices, but its individual cards do not repeat standard length for every model [3]. Those listings are therefore useful cross-checks for shopping, not additions to this strict six-price set.

How to compare another listing fairly

First select the exact product name and comfort variant, then confirm Queen and Standard Length (152 × 188 cm). Next confirm that the price is for the mattress only, rather than a base or bed set. Record the displayed cash price and date, and keep delivery, finance charges, warranties, promotions and stock conditions separate. If any of those fields are missing, label the result as unverified instead of calling it cheaper. No like-for-like cross-retailer price verdict is established here.
