Layer Details
- Reflex Memory Foam. A 15.5cm layer of Reflex Memory foam that adapts to changes in weight, pressure and activity, which means you get targeted support that responds as you shift position through the night. This is the bulk of the mattress and where its firm, supportive character comes from.
- High Density Memory Foam. A 2.5cm layer of high density memory foam sits within the core, moulding around your body for a weightless feel. It adds a touch of cosy comfort to soften the firm base beneath.

- 75cm each for two people sharing: You each get 75cm of width, which means turning over or stretching out without waking the person next to you.
- Foam that keeps movement local: The all-foam build absorbs motion rather than bouncing it across the bed, useful if one of you gets up hours before the other.
- 200cm of length for taller sleepers: The UK king is 10cm longer than the UK double, which means anyone approaching six foot stops sleeping with their feet at the edge.
- A firm surface across the full width: The firm feel stays consistent edge to edge, so the extra space is all genuinely usable rather than softening near the sides.
- Room for a pet without a squeeze: If a dog claims the foot of the bed most nights, the extra width over a UK double stops that habit costing you sleep.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and a double has started to feel cramped, especially if one of you keeps different hours and wants to slip out without disturbing the other. It also fits if either partner is approaching six foot and needs the 200cm length, or if you like a firm feel and want the space to spread out on it.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than the 2.7m x 2.9m we suggest for a UK king, or you sleep alone. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

Is a UK king big enough for a couple on the Bodyshape Vitality?
Yes, comfortably for most. At 150 x 200cm you get 75cm each for two people sharing, and because the Bodyshape Vitality is firm, you sleep on your own patch rather than drifting towards a dip in the middle. If you both sprawl, or a child regularly joins you, the UK super king is the roomier option.
Does the Bodyshape Vitality king reduce partner disturbance?
It helps in two ways. The all-foam construction absorbs movement instead of transferring it, so one partner getting up early is less likely to wake the other. The width does the rest: with 75cm each for two people sharing, an elbow or a turn happens in your own space, not theirs.
Is the UK king long enough for someone over six foot?
At 200cm, the UK king is 10cm longer than the UK double, and for tall sleepers that length is often the real upgrade. It means heels stay on the mattress rather than hanging over the end. If you're well past six foot, sizing up in width to the UK super king changes nothing, as both sizes share the same 200cm length.
What room size do I need for this mattress in a UK king?
We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m, with 3.2m x 3.2m feeling comfortable once wardrobes and bedside tables are in. New build master bedrooms can be tighter than they first appear, so measure with the furniture in mind. If your room falls short, the UK double needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m.
