Title: BED SIZES
Description: in SA
gonga - March 25, 2006 12:42 PM (GMT)
many moons ago when we were married, we recieved as a gift, hand made Italian bedding.
We have never used it here in the UK, and there are several reasons for this.....
As we will not be taking our bed with us to OZ, we want to know if bed sizes in SA are different than here.
The bedding we have is for a king size bed, and we will be looking to purchase a king size bed.
Anyone offer any advice?

Just confirming the above. We have a King size bed, and the fitted sheet is
183x203cm.
Just out of interest's sake, what is the size of a UK King Size bed?

I think our UK King sized bed is classed as an Aussie Queen. So I am lookig forward to a much bigger bed when I get there.

On a similar theme, if we were to bring our double bedframe but not the mattress would we be able to buy a mattress to fit it in Adelaide?
And also the same question for single beds and mattresses?
