Not sure which single mattress is the right one for you? The sections below walk through the different types of single mattresses available, the materials used, their best uses, and the key factors to weigh before choosing a single bed mattress that suits your sleeping preferences, budget, and support requirements.
The comfort, support, and durability of a single mattress are largely influenced by the materials and construction used inside it. Understanding the different types available can help you choose a single bed mattress that suits your needs. Here is a breakdown of the most common types you will find at FurnitureSG:
Foam mattresses are lightweight, affordable, and easy to move around. Depending on the foam used, they can range from soft and cushioning to firm and supportive.
Pocketed spring mattresses use individual coils wrapped in fabric, which means each spring responds independently to pressure. This gives you more targeted support and reduces motion transfer, making it a popular choice for light sleepers.
Bonnell spring mattresses are the classic coil design. They offer firm, responsive support and are generally more affordable than pocketed spring options. A good choice if you prefer a traditional feel and value for money.
Latex mattresses are naturally breathable and resistant to dust mites and allergens, which makes them well-suited to Singapore’s humid climate. Many sleepers appreciate the responsive feel of latex, which provides comfort and pressure relief without the deep sinking sensation associated with some foam mattresses.
Coconut fibre mattresses are firm, eco-friendly, and excellent for back support. They are a popular choice for children and for those who prefer a very hard sleeping surface, as is common in some Asian households.
Usually made from foam-based materials, foldable mattresses are designed for convenience and easy storage. They are ideal for guest rooms, temporary sleeping arrangements, and homes where space is limited. Many of the options in our collection fold into thirds for easy storage under a bed or inside a wardrobe.
Choosing the right single mattress is not just about selecting a size. The ideal single bed mattress will depend on factors such as who will use it, how it will be used, and which features matter most for long-term comfort. Here are the most important considerations when comparing different single mattress options:
A single mattress is a versatile option that works well in a variety of living spaces. Its compact size makes it ideal for smaller rooms while still providing comfortable sleeping space for one person. Here are some of the most common situations where a single mattress can be a practical and space-efficient choice.
The standard single mattress size in Singapore is 91 cm wide by 190 cm long (approximately 36 inches by 75 inches). Some brands may vary slightly, so it is always a good idea to check the product dimensions before purchasing, especially if you already have a single bed frame.
A super single mattress is wider than a standard single, measuring around 107 cm by 190 cm. It offers more sleeping space for one person without taking up as much room as a queen. If you are unsure which size fits your bed frame, check the frame dimensions before ordering.
It depends on how it will be used. For bunk beds or low-profile bed frames, a 4 to 6 inch mattress is typically recommended for safety and proportion. For standard single bed frames used every night, an 8 to 12 inch mattress will offer more comfort and support. Thicker mattresses generally have more comfort layers on top of the support core.
For children, a medium-firm mattress is usually recommended to support healthy spinal development. Coconut fibre, high-density foam, and pocketed spring options are all popular choices. If your child has allergies, a latex mattress is worth considering as it is naturally hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites.
Yes. Most single mattresses in our collection are delivered within 3 to 5 working days. Some items may have a slightly longer lead time, which will be indicated on the product page. We deliver islandwide across Singapore, including HDB flats and condominiums.
Yes, FurnitureSG offers customised foam mattresses for non-standard dimensions. This is useful for helper’s rooms, unusual bed frames, or any space that does not fit a standard size. Check our customised mattress options or contact us directly for more details.
This comes down to personal preference and sleeping position. Side sleepers generally prefer a softer mattress (firmness 3 to 5) for pressure relief at the shoulders and hips. Back sleepers do well with medium-firm (5 to 6). Stomach sleepers and those who want extra back support typically prefer a firmer option (7 to 10). You can filter our single mattress collection by firmness level to narrow down your choices.
A good-quality single mattress can last between 7 to 10 years with proper care. Using a mattress protector, rotating the mattress regularly, and avoiding excessive weight or pressure on specific spots will help extend its lifespan.
The best single mattress depends on your preferred comfort level and sleeping habits. Pocketed spring, latex, foam, and orthopaedic mattresses all offer different benefits, making personal comfort and support the most important factors.
Yes. FurnitureSG offers a variety of orthopaedic single mattresses designed to provide enhanced support and comfort. Popular options include the Maliland Dolphin 2-in-1 Orthopaedic Foam Mattress, the Athena Orthopedic Spring Mattress by Viro, and the MaxCoil Lowa Orthopedic Spinal Guard Spring Mattress. To browse all available orthopaedic options, simply type “orthopaedic” in the search bar on our website, or filter by firmness level 7 and above in our single mattress collection.
Using a mattress protector, rotating the mattress when recommended, and cleaning it regularly can help extend its lifespan and keep it in good condition.
You should rotate your mattress at least every three months. This distributes the fillings evenly, ensures each side of your mattress gets equal wear, and prevents the mattress from dipping on one side. You still need to rotate your mattress if you get the bed all to yourself!
Yes. Singapore’s tropical climate can expose mattresses to higher levels of humidity throughout the year. Using a mattress protector, maintaining good room ventilation, and allowing the mattress to air out occasionally can help keep it fresh and comfortable.
The best choice depends on comfort preferences and budget. Many Singapore households choose foam, pocketed spring, or latex single mattresses for helper’s rooms because they provide adequate comfort while fitting comfortably in compact spaces.
Yes. Many homeowners choose single mattresses for BTO flats because they fit comfortably in compact bedrooms while leaving room for wardrobes, study desks, and other essential furniture.
A single mattress is designed for one sleeper. While two adults may be able to use it temporarily, most couples will find it too narrow for comfortable long-term use. A queen mattress or king mattress is generally a more suitable option for shared sleeping.
