Super King Quilt Cover

What size is a super king quilt cover?

A super king doona cover is the largest size of bedding widely available in Australia. Typically our super king quilt covers are 270cm x 240cm, which allows for a good fit on your super king mattress. We also have a wide range of super king size bed linen which are also similarly sized.

Can you put a king quilt in a super king cover?

Because a king quilt is going to be considerably smaller than a super king quilt, it is not wise to place a king size doona inside a super king quilt cover. We always recommend that you pair whatever size quilt cover you are buying with its corresponding size quilt.

But if you do have a king bed and are looking to create a more stylish and dramatic feel in your bedroom, upsizing to a super king quilt cover and quilt is a really good way to make your bedroom have that luxurious feel to it.

We would always recommend that before you purchase any bedding online that you measure the bed you are buying for before completing any purchase so you know exactly what you are getting! And at My Linen, we have all our sizing in our product descriptions on our product pages.

What size is a super king quilt cover in Australia?

In Australia, the size of a super king quilt cover set is typically 270cm x 240cm. This obviously may vary depending on who is manufacturing the quilt cover, but that is the standard sizing. Around the world in other countries, the sizing for super king doona covers is different to Australia's.

For example. in the United Kingdom, a super king doona cover is typically around 260cm x 220cm, which is markedly smaller than in Australia. And in the United States of America, our super king quilt cover is more similar to king size quilt covers over there.

You also have the ability in Australia to pair your new super king doona cover with some lovely sheet sets! Our super king sheets range, which includes standard pillowcases, is a great pairing for those looking to complete the look in their bedroom.

Which size is bigger? Queen or super king?

As mentioned before, a super king quilt cover is the largest widely available size of bedding in Australia. A queen quilt cover is typically around 210cm x 210cm, which is significantly smaller compared to the super king doona cover range.

If you happen to own a queen size mattress and bed, and you are looking to create a stylish feel in your bedroom, we would recommend upsizing to a king size quilt cover as opposed to a super king size quilt cover as the king will be more appropriately sized.

A king quilt cover is typically around 240cm x 210cm, which means that when placing it on a queen bed you will see a lovely overhang around the entirety of the mattress. Again, always make sure you check the size of your mattress and bed before making any purchases online!

Is the super king the same as the California king?

To figure out whether or not an Australian super king size mattress is the same as a California king mattress, you have to determine which country you are referring to. Generally speaking, a California king size mattress is smaller than an Australian super king mattress, but let's look at each country individually.

If you are comparing an Australian super king bed with an American California king, our super king bed is larger. An American California king mattress is sized at around 183cm x 212cm, whereas our super king mattresses are sized at around 204cm x 204cm. This would seem to imply that a California king is created for those of us who are quite tall.

On the other hand, if you were to buy a California king from New Zealand, you would find that it is almost identical in size to a super king bed from Australia. This means that it is around 203cm x 203cm.
