Soft and Cushioned: Our Range of Upholstered Beds Can Elevate the Aesthetic of Your Bedroom
There's a reason upholstered beds have become one of the most popular bed styles in Australian bedrooms. The soft, tailored finish adds a sense of comfort and polish that a hard timber or metal frame simply can't match, and it suits everything from a coastal Queenslander to a compact Melbourne apartment.
At Sleeping Giant, our upholstered bed range spans a variety of fabrics, sizes and silhouettes, so you can find a frame that suits both your bedroom and your budget. Whether you're after a plush winged headboard for reading in bed or a low-profile platform design for a more minimalist look, this guide covers everything worth knowing before you choose an upholstered bed frame.
What Is an Upholstered Bed? Understanding the Fabric and Construction
An upholstered bed is a bed frame built with a fabric-wrapped headboard, and often a fabric-wrapped base and footboard as well. Underneath the fabric, most frames use a layer of foam or wadding over a timber or engineered wood structure, which is what gives upholstered beds their soft, cushioned feel compared with a timber or metal frame.
Upholstered Bed Sizes: Single, King Single, Double, Queen and King
Sleeping Giant stocks upholstered fabric beds in every standard Australian mattress size, so there's an option for a kid's room right through to a spacious main bedroom.
-
Single: a compact frame suited to a single sleeper or a kid's room
-
King Single: a longer option for teens or single sleepers who want extra legroom
-
Double: a solid fit for smaller main bedrooms or spare rooms
-
Queen: the most popular size for Australian main bedrooms, wide enough for two adults
-
King: the roomiest option for couples who want extra space to stretch out

Benefits of Upholstered Beds: Comfort, Sound Insulation and Style
-
Comfort: a padded headboard is far more comfortable to lean against while reading or watching TV in bed than a hard timber or metal one.
-
Sound insulation: the fabric and padding help absorb sound in the bedroom, which a hard headboard simply can't do.
-
Style: fabric beds bring texture and softness into a room and are easy to style with cushions, throws and bedding.
If you'd like to compare more options, take a look at our Timber Beds range for a warmer, more natural finish, or the full beds collection to browse everything we offer.
Upholstered Beds with Storage and Other Functional Features
Many upholstered bed frames in our range also come with built-in storage, which is especially handy in smaller Australian homes and apartments where every bit of space counts.
-
Gas lift storage: lift the mattress to access a full storage cavity underneath
-
Drawer storage: built-in drawers set into the base for everyday linen and clothing
Browse our full storage bed range at Sleeping Giant to see which upholstered options include these features, or pair your bed with a matching bed end for extra storage at the foot of the bed. If you need a versatile option for a guest room, our sofa beds range is also worth a look.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are upholstered beds comfortable to sleep in?
Yes. The padded headboard is comfortable to lean against, and the frame itself supports your mattress the same way any other bed base does.
Can the fabric cover be removed and washed?
Some upholstered beds come with a removable and washable cover, while others have fixed upholstery that may need vacuuming and/or spot cleaning for any stains or marks. Check the product details for each frame, or see our our range of beds with removable covers if you'd like an easier to clean option.
Are upholstered beds suitable for all bedroom sizes?
Yes, with the right style. A platform or panel design in a Single or Double size suits smaller Australian bedrooms, while winged and curved designs make more of a statement in larger rooms.
