- 90cm each for two sharing: You each get 90cm of width, which means a partner who turns over frequently is far enough away that you'll rarely feel it.
- Pocket springs suit the width: Individually pocketed springs compress only where weight sits, so at this width one sleeper's movement stays largely on their side of the bed.
- Space for night-time visitors: If children pad through at 3am, or a large dog treats the bed as theirs, a UK super king absorbs the extra body without anyone perching on an edge.
- Fills a large master properly: In a big period bedroom a UK king can look lost against the wall; the extra 30cm of width sits in better proportion.
- The top of this model's range: This is the biggest size the Lincoln Crib 5 comes in, so if space is the priority there's nothing above it to weigh up.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and want enough distance that a restless partner stops being your problem, your children or pets regularly join you and you'd rather plan for that than fight it, or your bedroom is large enough that a UK king would look undersized. Allow at least 3m x 2.9m of floor space, with more feeling comfortable.
Consider another size if...
Your room falls short of the 3m x 2.9m we suggest as a minimum, or your landing and door swing make a 180cm-wide mattress a struggle. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which keeps a generous 150cm of width in a more manageable footprint.

How much wider is a super king than a king?
The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king, at 180cm against 150cm. Both are 200cm long. That extra 30cm is the difference between sharing comfortably and sharing tolerably: with 90cm each, two people can sleep without ever touching unless they choose to.
Will the Highgrove Lincoln Crib 5 in a UK super king fit my room?
We suggest at least 3m x 2.9m of floor space, and around 3.5m x 3.2m if you want bedside tables on both sides and room to walk around comfortably. Measure your door swing and any landing turns too, since a 180cm-wide mattress is the size where staircases start to bite.
Is a UK super king worth it for a restless partner?
Usually, yes. No comfort layer masks movement as well as distance does, and 90cm each is the most separation a standard UK size gives you. The pocket springs in this mattress help too, compressing individually rather than as one unit, but the width is doing most of the work.
Is this super king big enough for children climbing in?
At 180 x 200cm it's the most forgiving standard size for a family pile-on. Two adults and a small child can share without anyone clinging to the edge, and it copes with a large dog as a regular guest. It matches the footprint of two 90cm singles side by side.
What bedding will I need for this size?
Super king sheets to fit 180 x 200cm, and a 260 x 220cm duvet. Bedding at this size costs a little more and fewer shops stock it, so it's sensible to factor that in alongside the mattress itself. Prices for the mattress are shown live on this page as retailers update them.
