Layer Details
- Gel Memory foam. A 3cm layer of gel memory foam with a fast bounce-back rate and strong air circulation, which means it sleeps cooler than traditional memory foam. You get the contouring comfort without so much of the heat.
- Reflex foam. 3cm of reflex foam adds durability, helping the mattress keep its shape for longer. In practice, that means consistent support over time rather than early sagging.
- Pocket Springs. Rows of 2000 pocket springs sit in individual fabric pockets that move independently and together, giving a responsive bounce-back feel. Because each spring reacts on its own, your partner's movements are less likely to disturb you.

- Fits where bigger beds can't: At 90cm wide it leaves room for a desk, wardrobe and toy storage in a child's bedroom, or a walkway between two beds in a shared one.
- Grows with a child: The medium feel works for lighter bodies now and heavier teenage ones later, so you shouldn't need to replace it as they grow.
- Cooler for warm sleepers: The 3cm gel memory foam layer runs cooler than traditional memory foam, useful in small rooms and loft spaces that heat up quickly.
- A sensible guest room choice: In a spare room that doubles as an office, a UK single gives visitors a proper pocket-sprung bed without swallowing your workspace.
- Cheap, easy bedding: Single sheets and duvets are the most widely stocked of any UK size, which keeps running costs down for a child's or guest bed.
This size suits you if...
You're buying for a child or teenager and want a mattress that will still support them in five years, you sleep alone in a compact room or loft conversion where a wider bed would crowd the space, or you're furnishing a spare room that has to work as an office too.
Consider another size if...
You're an adult who wants space to stretch out, or the bed will occasionally sleep two. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which is 45cm wider and the same length; allow at least 2.6m x 2.8m of floor space for it.

What size is the Bodyshape Gel 2000 UK single?
It measures 90 x 190cm, which is 3ft x 6ft 3in. That's the standard UK single, so it fits standard single frames, bunk beds and mid sleepers, and takes standard single sheets and a single duvet. We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space around it.
Can I use the Bodyshape Gel 2000 UK single on a bunk or mid sleeper?
The 90 x 190cm footprint matches standard UK bunk and mid-sleeper frames. The one thing to check is depth: at 25cm this mattress is deeper than the thin foam pads many bunks are designed for, so measure your frame's guard rail height before buying, particularly for a top bunk.
Is the Bodyshape Gel 2000 UK single a good choice for a child or teenager?
It's a strong fit for that job. The medium feel suits lighter bodies without being too soft, the reflex foam layer helps it hold its shape as a child grows heavier, and the gel foam runs cooler than traditional memory foam, which helps in small bedrooms that get warm.
Should I buy the UK single or the UK small double for a guest room?
If the room only hosts one guest at a time and doubles as something else, the UK single keeps more floor free. The UK small double is 30cm wider and the same length, giving a solo guest more room to spread out; allow at least 2.4m x 2.8m of floor space for it.
