Layer Details
- Fits where other sizes can't: At 90cm wide it slots under a loft slope or into a box room, and we suggest just 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space.
- Firm support for one: The firm tension gives back and front sleepers a stable surface, and with nobody beside you there's no compromise on feel.
- Pocket springs that follow your shape: Each spring moves independently, which means support that adapts to your body rather than pushing back as a single rigid unit.
- Spare room ready: In a room that doubles as an office, the UK single leaves space for a desk while still giving guests a genuinely supportive bed.
- Cheap, easy bedding: Single sheets and duvets are the most widely stocked of any size, so refreshing the bed for guests costs little.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone on your back or front, know softer beds leave you achy, and want a proper firm pocket spring bed in a compact room. It also fits if you're kitting out a spare room that moonlights as an office, or a first flat where the frame came with the tenancy and the mattress didn't. This is a premium build for one person, so it rewards a bed you sleep in every night.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed, or you'd like room to sprawl. We'd recommend the UK small double instead: it's 30cm wider than the UK single, the same length, and we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m of floor space for it.

What size is the Palladium 16500 in a UK single?
The UK single measures 90 x 190cm, which is 3ft x 6ft 3in. It's the standard one-person size in the UK, so standard single sheets and a single duvet fit without any hunting for unusual bedding.
How much floor space does a UK single Palladium 16500 need?
We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m. That leaves enough clearance to walk round the bed and open a wardrobe, and it's why the UK single works in box rooms, loft conversions with sloped ceilings and spare rooms that also hold a desk.
Is the UK single Palladium 16500 a good choice for a child?
The size is right, since the UK single is the standard children's bed size, but the feel may not be. This is a firm mattress, and lighter sleepers often don't sink in enough for it to feel comfortable, particularly side sleepers. For most children a softer mattress would be a better match.
Should I get the UK single or the UK small double Palladium 16500?
The UK single is 30cm narrower than the UK small double, and the two are the same length. Sleeping alone in a tight room, take the UK single. If you have the space, the UK small double gives a solo sleeper more room to spread out; we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for it.
