Layer Details
Pressure-relieving memory foam
A memory foam layer designed to relieve pressure. It contours to your body, which should cushion your shoulders and hips.
Platinum 3D
A recyclable layer Dreams says has the feel of a million tiny springs. It gives the mattress a springy, responsive feel.
Open coil springs
Open coil springs that add bounce and airflow for lasting freshness. You get a lively feel and better air movement than all-foam builds.

Key benefits
- Fits a typical shared bedroom: At 135 x 190cm, the UK double suits a standard master or second bedroom, and we suggest allowing at least 2.6m x 2.8m around it.
- Width for two close sleepers: Each of you gets 67.5cm of width, which suits couples who sleep fairly close, although restless partners may find it a little snug.
- Airflow across a shared bed: The open coil springs add bounce and air movement beneath both of you, which means a bed for two should feel less closed-in than an all-foam build.
- Room for bedside tables: With around 3m x 3m you should keep bedside tables on both sides and still walk round the bed, a balance the UK king makes harder.
- Easy, affordable bedding: Double sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet fit, and they're easy to find at every price if you're furnishing a whole home at once.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a partner and your bedroom is around 2.6m x 2.8m or a little larger, or you sleep alone and a cat or dog regularly claims the bottom corner. It also suits a guest room where visiting couples stay for a few nights.
Consider another size if...
Either of you is tall, or you both sprawl and 67.5cm each feels tight. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which gives 75cm each; allow at least 2.7m x 2.9m for it.

FAQ's
Is the Dreams Workshop Richards Combination UK double big enough for two people?
For most couples, yes. The UK double gives each of you 67.5cm of width, which works well if you sleep close together. If one of you moves about a lot, the UK king gives 7.5cm more each and is 10cm longer, which taller sleepers tend to notice.
What size bedroom do I need for a Richards Combination UK double?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m. That fits the bed and lets you get in on both sides. Around 3m x 3m is more comfortable, leaving space for bedside tables on each side plus a wardrobe or chest of drawers.
How big is the Dreams Workshop Richards double mattress in feet?
The UK double measures 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in, or 135 x 190cm. It sits 22cm deep, so check your fitted sheets have deep enough pockets before you buy new bedding.
Should I get the Richards Combination in a UK double or a UK king?
Choose the UK king if your room allows at least 2.7m x 2.9m and you want more space: it's 15cm wider and 10cm longer than the UK double. In a smaller room, or where you need storage furniture too, the UK double keeps things practical without squeezing the two of you.
How much bigger is a UK double than a small double in this mattress?
The UK double is 15cm wider than the UK small double, and both are the same length. That extra width matters most for couples. We suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for the UK small double, which may suit a compact second bedroom or a solo sleeper better.
