Key benefits

Key Benefits of the Ikea Moshult Foam Single Mattress

  • Fits compact rooms: At 90cm wide it leaves floor space free, which matters in a child's room where the bed competes with a desk, wardrobe and toy storage.
  • Quiet foam for shared kids' rooms: An all-foam build means no spring creak, useful where siblings sleep a few feet apart and one wriggler shouldn't wake the other.
  • Low outlay for a low-stakes bed: This is one of the cheapest ways to fill a spare room or a provided student frame, sensible where the mattress won't see nightly adult use.
  • Bedding is easy and cheap: Standard single sheets and a 135 x 200cm single duvet fit, and both are the most widely stocked bedding of any UK size.
  • Modest room requirement: We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space, which almost any UK bedroom, box room or loft conversion can manage.

Who should buy the Ikea Moshult Foam Single Mattress?

This size suits you if...

You're furnishing a child's or teenager's room and want a straightforward single without spending much, you're setting up a spare room that doubles as an office and the bed is an occasional-use item, or you've moved into a student room or first flat where the frame is provided and you just need a UK single mattress to go on it.

Consider another size if...

You share a bed, or you're an adult who wants more than 90cm of width to yourself night after night. The Moshult only comes in single sizes, so anyone needing a double or larger will need a different mattress altogether.

FAQ's

Frequently Asked Questions About the UK Single

What are the dimensions of the Ikea Moshult UK single?

It measures 90 x 190cm, which is 3ft x 6ft 3in. That's the standard UK single, so it fits any UK single frame, and standard single bedding fits without bunching or shortfall.

Is the Ikea Moshult UK single a good first bed for a child?

It's a reasonable fit for the job. A UK single is the default size for children's beds in the UK, and the Moshult's low price suits a mattress a child will outgrow. The removable cover is easy to clean, which helps at this age. Yes, the foam is basic, but a growing child rarely needs more.

Will the Ikea Moshult UK single fit a bunk or mid sleeper frame?

The width and length match standard UK bunk and mid sleeper frames. Raised frames often set a maximum mattress depth for guard rail safety, though, and Ikea doesn't publish full construction detail for this model, so check the depth against your frame's guidance before buying.

How much room do you need for a UK single mattress?

We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space, which covers the bed plus room to move around it. That modest footprint is why a UK single works under a loft slope, in a box room, or in a spare room that also holds a desk.

What bedding fits the Ikea Moshult UK single?

Standard UK single sheets and a single duvet, which measures 135 x 200cm, fit this mattress. Single bedding is the cheapest and most widely available of any size, so replacing sheets for a child's room or guest bed stays inexpensive.
