Layer Details
- Springs plus space against a fidgety partner: Pocket springs move independently to limit motion transfer, and at 90cm each for two people sharing, most turning happens too far away to notice anyway.
- Room for midnight visitors: When a child pads in at 3am, or a large dog treats your bed as routine, 180cm of width means nobody ends up clinging to an edge.
- 30cm wider than the UK king: That extra width goes straight into personal space, since the UK super king and the UK king are the same length.
- Medium firm across a big surface: A slightly firmer feel keeps the whole 6ft width consistently supportive, so there is no soft dip pulling everyone towards the middle.
- Suits a large master bedroom: In a period property or generous new build master, a smaller bed can look lost; this size fills the room in proportion.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and want the most space a standard UK size offers, your sleep is regularly broken by a partner who turns a lot, or children and pets join you often enough that a UK king feels crowded. Your bedroom should comfortably clear our suggested minimum of 3m x 2.9m, with space to walk round both sides.
Consider another size if...
Your room falls short of the 3m x 2.9m we suggest for a UK super king, or you sleep alone. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which is 30cm narrower and needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

Is the Heritage 7000 super king big enough for a family sharing?
For most, yes. The UK super king measures 180 x 200cm, giving two adults 90cm each, and there is genuine slack for a child who wanders in overnight or a dog with a standing invitation. If bed sharing is a nightly fixture rather than an occasional event, this is the largest standard size you can buy.
What room size do I need for the Heritage 7000 in a UK super king?
We suggest at least 3m x 2.9m, with around 3.5m x 3.2m feeling more comfortable once you add bedside tables and space to move on both sides. In a large master or a period property, a UK super king often looks better proportioned than a UK king would.
Will the medium firm feel help with a restless partner in a super king?
It should, on two counts. The pocket springs compress independently, so movement travels less across the surface, and the sheer width means a partner turning over is simply further away. Distance does more than any comfort layer, and 90cm each is as much distance as a standard UK bed provides.
How much bigger is the UK super king than the UK king in this mattress?
The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king, and both are the same 200cm length. All of that extra width becomes sleeping space. The trade-off is the room: we suggest at least 3m x 2.9m for the UK super king, against 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king.
