Layer Details
BioFresh™ cover
The BioFresh™ cover, powered by HEiQ technology, continuously breaks up allergens. That means a fresher sleep surface, which is helpful if you're prone to sniffles or dust sensitivity.
FusionAir™ foam layer
The FusionAir™ foam layer's open cell construction encourages air circulation. In practice, heat can escape rather than gathering around you, so warm sleepers should find it a little more comfortable through the night.
HRXComfort™ foam layer
The HRXComfort™ foam layer lets you snuggle in without sinking down. You get that cushioned, hugged feeling on the surface while still being able to change position easily.
AeroFlex™ pocket springs
AeroFlex™ pocket springs distribute weight evenly for balanced support with pressure relief. Because each spring moves independently, heavier areas like your hips are supported without the whole surface dipping.
HRXSupport™ foam layer
The HRXSupport™ foam base is precision-engineered and guaranteed to keep its shape for 10 years. It anchors everything above it, which means the mattress should resist sagging over time.

- The classic couples' footprint: At 135 x 190cm, the UK double is the long established size for two, and this medium soft hybrid suits back and side sleepers sharing it.
- 67.5cm each for two people sharing: Each of you gets 67.5cm of width, and because the AeroFlex™ pocket springs move independently, your partner's turning is less likely to wake you.
- Room left for the furniture: Allow at least 2.6m x 2.8m and a UK double should still leave space for a wardrobe and bedside tables on both sides.
- A cooler shared surface: Two bodies mean more heat, so the FusionAir™ foam's open cell structure, which lets warmth escape, matters more in a double than it does for a solo sleeper.
- Easy to dress: Standard double sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet fit, and both are stocked everywhere at every price.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and want the traditional couples' size without giving up floor space, your bedroom is a typical UK size where a UK king would dominate, or you sleep alone and like room to spread out, perhaps with a dog or cat claiming a corner.
Consider another size if...
You both like your own space, one of you is a restless sleeper, or your room comfortably clears 3m each way. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which is 15cm wider and gives each of you noticeably more room.

Is the Emma Helix Hybrid Deluxe double big enough for a couple?
Yes, for most couples. The UK double gives 67.5cm each for two people sharing, and the pocket springs respond to each sleeper independently, so one partner's movement disturbs the other less. Larger or restless couples may prefer the UK king, which is 15cm wider, if the room allows it.
What room size do I need for the Emma Helix Hybrid Deluxe in a UK double?
We suggest allowing at least 2.6m x 2.8m, with around 3m x 3m the comfortable norm. The mattress itself is 135 x 190cm, so a typical UK bedroom or first flat should take it alongside a wardrobe and drawers, usually with space for bedside tables on both sides.
Does the Emma Helix Hybrid Deluxe come in a small double?
No. This mattress comes in UK single, UK double, UK king and UK super king only. If a 120cm small double is what your room really needs, you'll have to look at a different mattress; otherwise the UK double is the narrowest option here that suits two people.
What bedding fits the UK double Emma Helix Hybrid Deluxe?
Standard UK double sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet. One thing to check: the mattress is 27cm deep, so look for fitted sheets labelled deep or with a generous pocket, as shallower ones can ping off the corners overnight.
How does the UK double compare with the other sizes of this mattress?
The UK double is 45cm wider than the UK single, 15cm narrower than the UK king and 45cm narrower than the UK super king. It's the middle ground: enough width for two, in a footprint most bedrooms can take. Note the double and single are 190cm long, slightly shorter than the 200cm king sizes.
