About King Koil
King Koil dates to 1898 and operates on a licensing model: regional manufacturers build to King Koil specifications and sell through furniture retailers and hospitality channels worldwide.
The brand is best known for its long relationship with chiropractic organisations and for the Chiropractic-endorsed innerspring and hybrid lines aimed at back support.
As with other licensed brands, spec varies by retailer and region. That makes model-to-model comparison harder than with a DTC brand, but it also means frequent, deep retail promotions.
What they make
Innerspring, hybrid, and foam mattresses across budget to upper-mid tiers, plus hospitality and air-bed products.
Origin
American — built by licensed regional manufacturers
King Koil Signature Technologies
Reflex Support Coils

Chiropractic-Endorsed Design

Gel Memory Foam Comfort Layers
Gel-infused foam quilting on upper-tier models to soften a firm coil base without excess heat.

King Koil FAQ
Are King Koil mattresses good for back pain?
The firmer Chiropractic-line innersprings and hybrids provide solid lumbar support and are a reasonable choice for back sleepers with lower-back pain. Side sleepers with hip or shoulder pain generally need more comfort-layer depth than the entry models provide.
Why do King Koil prices vary so much between stores?
King Koil licenses its name to regional manufacturers and builds retailer-exclusive models, so the same model name can have different foam and coil specs in different stores. Compare coil count and comfort-layer depth rather than model names.
Is King Koil the same company as Sealy or Serta?
No. King Koil is independently licensed and unrelated to Serta Simmons or Tempur Sealy, though all three use similar licensed or regional manufacturing structures.
