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.
Layer details from mattressonline.co.uk product page, September 2026.
- 90cm of width each: Two sharers get 90cm apiece, which means a partner who fidgets or sprawls is far enough away that you barely register it.
- Memory foam absorbs movement: The high density memory foam layer moulds around each body separately, so combined with the width, one sleeper turning over rarely disturbs the other.
- Room for company: When children pad in at 3am or the dog treats the bed as routine, 180cm of width means everyone still gets a usable share.
- Firm support across a big surface: The 15.5cm Reflex Memory foam layer adapts to weight and pressure wherever you lie, so the far edges feel as supportive as the middle.
- A slimmer profile at scale: An 18cm depth keeps this large mattress easier to handle and dress than deeper foam builds, and standard super king sheets fit without a fight.
This size suits you if...
You and your partner have outgrown a UK king, or one of you is restless enough that distance matters more than any comfort layer. It also suits families where children or pets join you most mornings, provided your bedroom meets the 3m x 2.9m minimum we suggest. You'll want to like a firm feel, since that character runs edge to edge across the full 180cm.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is under the 3m x 2.9m we suggest, or you mostly sleep alone. We'd recommend the UK king instead: it's 30cm narrower, the same length, and needs a smaller footprint at 2.7m x 2.9m.

What are the dimensions of the Bodyshape Vitality super king?
It measures 180 x 200cm, or 6ft x 6ft 6in. For two people sharing, that works out at 90cm each, the same width per sleeper as a single bed. It's the largest size the Bodyshape Vitality comes in, and the largest stocked as standard by UK retailers.
What room size do I need for the Bodyshape Vitality super king?
We suggest at least 3m x 2.9m, which is our own guidance rather than Bodyshape's. That allows walking space on both sides and room for bedside tables. Before ordering, check your door swing and any radiators or built-in wardrobes, since a bed this wide leaves less margin than you might expect.
Is the Bodyshape Vitality super king good if my partner is restless?
Yes, arguably more so than most sizes. With 90cm of width each, a fidgeting partner is simply further away, and the memory foam layer moulds locally around each body rather than transmitting movement like a springy surface would. The firm feel does mean lightweight side sleepers may find pressure on hips and shoulders.
Should I choose the super king or the UK king in this mattress?
The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king and the same length, so the decision rests on width and room size. If children or pets share regularly, or one of you sleeps restlessly, the extra width is what you're paying for. Rooms under 3m x 2.9m suit the UK king better, which needs 2.7m x 2.9m.
Will a super king Bodyshape Vitality get up the stairs?
Its 18cm depth is slimmer than many foam mattresses, which helps on tight landings, but 180cm of width is still awkward on a turning staircase. Foam does flex more forgivingly than a sprung mattress. Measure your stairwell and any sharp turns first, and check the retailer's delivery guidance for access requirements.
