Layer Details
- Knitted cover. A soft knitted finish that adds cosiness and warmth. It also helps airflow and breathability, which means a slightly cooler night's sleep.
- Soft White Fibres. Soft synthetic polyester fillings that create a cosy top feel. They're durable and resilient, holding their shape and quality over time.
- Traditional Open Coil Springs. Interlaced springs joined together in a lattice design, which means your weight is distributed evenly across the mattress. This relieves built-up pressure and supports spinal alignment.

- The classic shared size: At 135 x 190cm, the UK double is the long established standard for two, giving each of you 67.5cm of width.
- Fits ordinary rooms: We suggest a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m, which leaves space for bedside tables on both sides in most UK bedrooms.
- Even support across the width: The interlaced open coil springs spread weight across the whole 135cm surface, which means neither sleeper ends up in a dip on their side.
- Edge to edge usefulness: Owner reviews mention good edge support, which matters more in a double, where two sharers each sleep closer to their own edge.
- Easy to dress: Standard double sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet are sold everywhere, so a guest room setup is cheap to complete.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed and want the traditional couples' size without giving a whole room over to it, you're furnishing a guest room that regularly hosts visiting couples on a modest budget, or you sleep alone and want space to spread out, or to share with a dog or cat that has claimed a corner.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner both like room to move, or one of you is disturbed by the other turning over; the open coil design transfers some movement. We'd recommend the UK king instead, allowing a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

Is the Bodyshape Vitality UK double big enough for a couple?
For most couples, yes. The UK double gives 67.5cm each for two people sharing, the traditional standard for a shared bed. One caveat with this particular mattress: the springs are interlaced rather than pocketed, so you may feel your partner move more than you would on a pocket sprung bed. Light sleepers sharing every night might prefer more space.
What room size do I need for the Bodyshape Vitality in a UK double?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m, with around 3m x 3m the comfortable norm. That allows the door to open fully and leaves walking space either side. If you're squeezing a bed, wardrobe and chest of drawers into a second bedroom or first flat, measure the floor with the wardrobe doors open before you commit.
Should I choose the Bodyshape Vitality in a UK double or a UK king?
The UK double is 15cm narrower and 10cm shorter than the UK king. Choose the UK double if your room is on the smaller side or the bed is for a guest room. Sharers who want more elbow room, or anyone tall, should consider the UK king, allowing a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m.
Will the UK double Bodyshape Vitality fit up a narrow staircase?
The mattress measures 135 x 190cm, or 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in, and is 24cm deep. That's manageable in most homes, but turning stairs in older terraces and tight new build landings can catch people out, so measure the awkward corner and any low ceiling on the route before ordering.
