Key benefits
- The most space you can buy off the shelf: At 180 x 200cm (6ft x 6ft 6in), the UK super king is the largest size stocked as standard, so nothing bigger is routinely available.
- 90cm each for two sleepers: Each of you gets 90cm of width, which means a partner who turns over frequently is far enough away to stop mattering.
- Space that absorbs the whole household: If children appear at 3am or a large dog treats your bed as its own, this width means everyone still gets a usable share.
- 30cm more than a UK king: The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king, a difference you notice every night rather than a spec-sheet detail.
- Room to match a bigger bedroom: In a large master or period property a UK king can look undersized, and this footprint fills the space properly.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and want the maximum distance a standard UK size allows, your children or pets regularly join you and a UK king has started to feel crowded, or your bedroom is large enough that a smaller bed looks lost. Allow at least 3m x 2.9m of floor space, with something nearer 3.5m x 3.2m feeling comfortable.
Consider another size if...
Your room measures under our suggested 3m x 2.9m minimum, or you're furnishing a typical UK double bedroom. The UK king version of this mattress would suit you better, keeping generous space for two in a smaller footprint.

FAQ's
Will a super king Highgrove Solar Orthopocket 1500 fit in my bedroom?
The mattress measures 180 x 200cm, or 6ft x 6ft 6in. We suggest a room of at least 3m x 2.9m, with around 3.5m x 3.2m feeling right once you add bedside tables and walking space on both sides. Measure your room before ordering, including door swing.
Is the UK super king worth it over the UK king for this mattress?
The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king, giving two sharers 90cm each. If one of you sleeps restlessly, or children and pets join you at night, that extra width does more for your sleep than most upgrades. In an average sized room, though, the UK king is the more practical choice.
Can I get a super king Highgrove Solar Orthopocket 1500 up my stairs?
This is the size where stairs, landing turns and door frames genuinely bite. Highgrove doesn't publish handling guidance for this mattress, so measure your tightest turn before ordering and check the retailer listing for delivery details. A pocket sprung mattress at 180cm wide is an awkward carry, and it may need two people.
What bedding fits the super king size?
You'll need super king sheets for the 180 x 200cm footprint, and a 260 x 220cm duvet is the usual pairing. Bedding at this size costs a little more and fewer shops stock it, so factor that into your budget alongside the mattress itself.
Is a UK super king the same as two single mattresses?
In width, yes: 180cm matches two 90cm UK singles side by side, the footprint hotel zip and link beds use. The Highgrove Solar Orthopocket 1500 in a UK super king is one continuous mattress, though, so there's no join down the middle but also no option to separate the halves.
