Easy Peasy - filter arrived on time.

I purchased the Wireless Bluetooth Headband. Frustrating from first use fiddling around with the control panel and the cabled buds inside the band. After just a few uses the control unit wouldn't charge as advertised (inside the band). Troubleshooting suggested removing from the band, did this but still would not charge. Contacted sleep solutions, sent them a short video of the charging error lights. Despite the product being less than 2 months old they sent me a pre-paid consignment note, to send the control panel & charging pad back to them - I was instructed to include a detailed explanation of the problem and of course my contact details. They would investigate and come back to me. I was also to ensure the product was packaged in a manner to prevent damage. What they should have done, given the age of the product is apologise and sent me a replacement. Unit is useless, I'll throw it out.

Quick delivery and great communication. Sound machine works perfectly for my daughters room
Bought online, after 9 days of having no notice about shipping I emailed them and only then they sent the package. It's been two weeks and I still haven't been delivered.

Excellent product, excellent customer service and very fast delivery. I will say, however, that I find the headhand too hot at the moment. This can't really be helped. But if you tend to run hot or get hot flushes, consider this.
We couldn't believe how fast the electric blankets got here from Sydney. Just 3 days by Australia post to Toowoomba. The products have all the features we wanted as well.
Guide to Long Single Sheets in Australia
Long single sheets are a specialist Australian bed size that can be difficult to find in mainstream retailers. This guide covers which sheets fit, the materials available, and how to avoid common sizing mistakes.
The long single mattress measures 92 × 203 cm - the same width as a standard single but 15 cm longer, matching the length of a queen or king mattress.
For a complete overview of all long single bedding - including quilts, mattress protectors, toppers, and electric blankets - see the Long Single Bedding Guide for Australian Split King Mattresses.
At a Glance
- Long single mattress measures 92 x 203 cm - same width as standard single, 15 cm longer
- Most commonly needed for split king beds (two long singles side by side)
- Standard single sheets will not fit - a 188 cm fitted sheet is too short for a 203 cm mattress
- Available in Tencel, bamboo, cotton percale, & organic cotton
Who Needs Long Single Sheets
Split King Beds
Two long single mattresses side by side. Each partner gets their own fitted sheet for independent adjustment on adjustable bed bases
Adjustable Beds
Most single-person adjustable beds in Australia use a long single mattress. The extra 15 cm ensures feet don’t hang over the edge
Taller Sleepers
Anyone over about 180 cm who sleeps in a single bed will benefit from the additional length

Standard single sheets will not fit
A fitted sheet designed for 188 cm will be too short for a 203 cm mattress - the elastic will pull free from the corners. Always check the product specifically states “Long Single” or “92 × 203 cm” before purchasing.
King Single (107 × 203 cm) is a different size
King Single is the same length as Long Single but 15 cm wider. King Single sheets will be too wide and baggy on a Long Single mattress and are not suitable for split king configurations.
Long Single vs Split King Sheet Sets
These terms refer to the same mattress size but different set configurations.
Individual
Long Single Sheet Set
For individual long single beds
- 1 × long single fitted sheet
- 1 × long single flat sheet
- 1 × pillowcase
Best for individual long single beds, tall teenagers, single adjustable beds. Buy two sets for a split king.
Couples
Split King Sheet Set
For split king beds used as a couple
- 2 × long single fitted sheets
- 1 × king flat sheet
- 2 × pillowcases
The king-size flat sheet covers both mattresses for a unified look. Browse split king sheet sets.
Separate fitted sheets are essential for split king
A single king fitted sheet will restrict movement and tear when the adjustable bases are moved independently. Each mattress must have its own fitted sheet.
Materials Available in Long Single
Not every material or brand offers a long single size. The table below covers the materials confirmed available in long single:
| Material | Feel & Performance | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Tencel (100%) | Smooth, cool to touch, 50% better moisture management than cotton. Subtle lustre. Asthma Council Sensitive Choice approved (Bambi) | Hot sleepers, sensitive skin, eczema, night sweats |
| Bamboo | Silky, soft drape, excellent temperature regulation year-round. Naturally antibacterial and hypoallergenic | All-season comfort, hot sleepers, allergy sufferers |
| Cotton (Percale) | Crisp, breathable, classic feel. Gets softer with every wash. Low wrinkle tendency | Those who prefer a traditional, cool-crisp sheet feel |
| Organic Cotton | GOTS certified, thick premium yarn, durable. No chemical treatments or finishes | Eco-conscious buyers, chemical sensitivities |
| Cotton-Tencel Knit | Jersey knit fabric (70% organic cotton, 30% Tencel). Stretchy, cool, t-shirt-soft feel | Adjustable beds (knit stretches with bed movement), relaxed casual feel |
For detailed material comparisons, see the individual fabric guides: Tencel sheets and bamboo sheets.
Adjustable Bed Tip
Knit and jersey-style sheets (like Bambury BedT Organica) and Tencel sheets are particularly well suited to adjustable beds because the fabric stretches and flexes as the bed moves. Stiff percale cotton may pull at the corners when the head or foot section is elevated.
Sheet Types Explained
Understanding the different sheet products and their sizing considerations for long single beds.
Fitted Sheet
Elasticated sheet that wraps around the mattress. The critical sizing piece - must be 92 × 203 cm. Check the wall depth (drop): standard is 35–40 cm. If using a mattress topper, add topper height and choose a deeper pocket fitted sheet.
Flat Sheet
Loose top sheet placed between sleeper and quilt. Less size-critical than fitted sheets. A long single flat sheet (~160 × 270 cm) is ideal, but a standard single flat sheet will also work in most cases.
Sheet Set
Fitted sheet + flat sheet + pillowcase(s) bundled together. Best value - ensures all pieces match in colour and fabric. Long single sets include 1 pillowcase; split king sets include 2.
Pillowcases
Standard size (48 × 73 cm) - same as queen/king beds. Pillowcases are universal. The bed size doesn’t affect pillowcase dimensions.
Sizing Checklist
Before ordering long single sheets, check these three measurements.
- Mattress length - confirm it’s 203 cm (not 188 cm standard single)
- Mattress depth (height) - measure from the base to the top surface. Standard is 20–30 cm. If using a mattress topper, add its height. Choose a fitted sheet wall depth that covers the total height plus 10 cm tuck-under
- Mattress width - confirm 92 cm. If it measures 107 cm, the mattress is a King Single, not a Long Single
Always measure the actual mattress
Do not rely on the bed frame label. Mattress dimensions can vary slightly between manufacturers. Measuring ensures the fitted sheet elastic sits firmly under all four corners without pulling free during the night.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Long Single Bed Sheet?
Understanding Long Single Bed Sheets
A long single bed sheet is a type of bed linen designed specifically for use with long single mattresses. In Australia, a standard single bed measures approximately 92 cm in width and 188 cm in length. However, a long single bed extends the length to around 203 cm, providing extra space particularly beneficial for taller individuals. To accommodate these longer mattresses, long single bed sheets are created.
- Dimensions: A typical long single bed sheet measures around 92 cm in width and 203 cm in length, aligning perfectly with the dimensions of a long single mattress.
- Material: These sheets are available in various materials, including cotton, linen, bamboo and tencel. Each material offers distinct advantages, with cotton being breathable and soft, tencel being eco-friendly and bamboo being temperature regulating.
- Styles: They come in a variety of colours and patterns, allowing you to match them with your bedroom's decor and personal style.
When selecting a long single bed sheet, it's important to consider factors like the thread count (a higher thread count often implies a softer and more durable sheet), the weave (percale for a crisp feel, sateen for a smooth and silky touch), and care instructions (some materials may require special washing or drying conditions). By considering these factors, you can choose a long single bed sheet that best fits your comfort preferences and lifestyle needs.
What size are Long Single Sheets?
Dimensions of Long Single Bed Sheets
Long single bed sheets are created to fit long single mattresses precisely. These mattresses, typically found in Australia, are a bit larger than the standard single size. A standard single mattress measures approximately 92 cm in width and 188 cm in length. In contrast, a long single mattress measures the same in width (92 cm) but extends in length to about 203 cm. This additional length caters to taller individuals or those who simply desire more legroom.
- Flat Sheet: A typical long single flat sheet measures slightly larger than the mattress itself. This allows it to drape over the sides and end of the bed, covering the mattress entirely. The dimensions can vary slightly, but on average, they measure around 180 cm in width and 275 cm in length.
- Fitted Sheet: A long single fitted sheet is designed to match the exact dimensions of the long single mattress. Hence, it measures approximately 92 cm in width and 203 cm in length. Additionally, the depth of the fitted sheet can vary based on the height of the mattress. Commonly, this depth ranges from 35 cm to 40 cm, but deeper options are available for mattresses with pillow tops or extra padding.
What beds are Long Single Bed Sheets designed for?
Types of Beds for Long Single Bed Sheets
Long single bed sheets are more extended versions of the standard single mattress. This type of mattress is generally found on specific types of beds, suitable for particular needs and spaces. Here's a closer look:
- Long Single Beds: The most obvious use is on long single beds themselves. These beds, which are about 92 cm wide and 203 cm long, are designed to provide additional length compared to standard single beds. This additional space is particularly useful for taller individuals.
- Adjustable Beds: Long single bed sheets are often used with adjustable beds. These beds allow for adjustment in terms of height and angle, providing maximum comfort to the user. A long single adjustable bed is suitable for a single person who desires extra length.
- Split King Beds: These are essentially a combination of two long single beds. Long single sheets are perfect for split king beds, as each half of the bed uses a long single mattress.
Long single bed sheets aren't just functional; they also contribute to the overall aesthetic and comfort of your bedroom. When selecting these sheets, remember to consider the material, thread count, and care instructions to ensure they cater to your personal comfort and lifestyle. By doing so, you can make the most out of your long single bed sheets and ensure a good night's sleep.
What are the dimensions of Long Single Bed?
Dimensions of a Long Single Bed
A long single bed is a type of bed that is specifically designed to be longer than the standard single bed. This type of bed is particularly popular in Australia, and it is designed to cater to taller individuals or those who desire more leg space. It's also used in specific types of bedroom setups such as split king beds.
- Width: The width of a long single bed is approximately 92 cm. This is similar to the width of a standard single bed, providing a comfortable sleeping area for one person.
- Length: The defining feature of a long single bed is its length. While a standard single bed is usually around 188 cm long, a long single bed extends the length to about 203 cm. This additional space allows for greater comfort, particularly for taller individuals.
Knowing these dimensions is crucial when selecting bedding, such as sheets and mattress protectors, and when planning bedroom space. Always remember to measure your bed accurately before purchasing any bed-related products to ensure a perfect fit. Furthermore, when incorporating a long single bed into your bedroom, ensure there's enough space around the bed for easy access and movement, enhancing the overall comfort and functionality of your sleeping area.
What is the difference between Long Single and Split King Sheet Sets?
Difference Between Long Single and Split King Sheet Sets
Understanding the difference between long single and split king sheet sets is important when selecting the right bedding for your needs. While both are designed to accommodate specific mattress types, they differ significantly in terms of their dimensions and intended usage.
- Long Single Sheets: A long single sheet set is intended for use with a long single bed, which measures approximately 92 cm in width and 203 cm in length. The set typically includes a fitted sheet of these exact dimensions, along with a flat sheet and one pillowcase.
- Split King Sheets: A split king sheet set, on the other hand, is designed for use with a split king bed, which consists of two long single beds placed side by side. Therefore, a split king sheet set generally includes two long single fitted sheets, one king-size flat sheet, and two pillowcases.
When choosing between long single and split king sheet sets, consider the type of bed you have and the bedding setup you prefer. If you have a split king bed and both sleepers have different comfort needs, two long single sheet sets may provide a more personalised sleeping experience. However, if you prefer a unified look, a split king sheet set is the better option. Always verify the dimensions of the sheets before purchase to ensure a perfect fit for your mattress, thereby maximising your sleeping comfort and the lifespan of your bedding.
Will King Single sheets fit a Long Single mattress?
No. King Single (107 x 203 cm) is the same length but 15 cm wider than Long Single (92 × 203 cm). A King Single fitted sheet will be too loose on a Long Single mattress and will bunch and wrinkle. The two sizes are not interchangeable.
Do I need two of everything for a split king bed?
Fitted sheets - yes, always two. Each mattress needs its own fitted sheet to allow independent adjustment. For flat sheets, quilts, and blankets, couples typically use one king-size piece across both mattresses for a unified look, though some prefer individual pieces for independent temperature control. See the Long Single Bedding Guide for full setup advice.
