Layer Details
- Reflex Foam. A soft, flexible reflex foam layer that supports spinal alignment. In practice, this means your back stays in a more neutral position as you sleep.
- High Density Memory Foam. A layer of high density memory foam for added support. It contours gently to your shape, easing pressure at the hips and shoulders.
- Pocket Springs. 1,000 sturdy pocket springs with a unique curvature, each sat in its own individual pocket. The high-tensile springs react independently to movement, which means less disturbance when a partner turns over.
- Foam Encapsulated Border. A reinforced perimeter made from durable, sturdy foam. This firms up the edges, so sitting on the side of the bed or sleeping near it feels stable.

- 75cm each for two sharing: You each get 75cm of width, which means you can change position without negotiating for territory in the middle of the night.
- Springs that isolate movement: Each of the 1,000 pocket springs moves independently, so if one of you leaves for work hours before the other, the mattress absorbs the disturbance.
- 200cm of length for taller sleepers: The UK king is 10cm longer than the UK double, a genuine relief if one of you is approaching six foot.
- Usable edge across the full width: The foam encapsulated border keeps the perimeter firm, so sleeping near your own edge feels stable rather than precarious.
- A lower profile at this width: At 20cm deep, the mattress sits a little lower than many hybrids, and standard UK king fitted sheets go on without a fight.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and a double has started to feel cramped, especially if one of you moves around or keeps different hours. It's also the sensible pick if either of you is tall, since the 200cm length adds headroom a double can't offer, and your bedroom comfortably meets our suggested minimum of 2.7m x 2.9m.
Consider another size if...
Your room is under our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m, or you sleep alone. The UK double needs only 2.6m x 2.8m and would suit a tighter room better; a solo sleeper could size down further still.

Is the Bodyshape 1000 Pocket Hybrid in a UK king good for couples?
Yes, and it's arguably the size this mattress makes most sense in. You get 75cm each for two people sharing, and the 1,000 independent pocket springs limit how much you feel a partner turning over. The firm foam encapsulated border means neither of you loses usable space at the edges.
What room size do I need for a UK king mattress?
We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m, with 3.2m x 3.2m feeling properly comfortable. That allows walking space on both sides and room for bedside tables. Measure with wardrobes and doors in mind: a new build master bedroom often has less free floor than the plan suggests.
Is the UK king long enough for someone over six foot?
It should be. The UK king is 200cm long, 10cm more than the UK double, so anyone approaching or just over six foot gets clearance without their feet hanging off the end. If length is your main reason for upgrading, that 10cm is often the difference you actually feel.
Should I get the Bodyshape 1000 in a UK double or a UK king?
For two people sharing every night, the UK king is 15cm wider and 10cm longer than the UK double, and you feel both. Choose the UK double only if your room is under our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m minimum for the UK king; the UK double needs 2.6m x 2.8m.
