Layer Details
Damask cover
A quality damask fabric with a micro quilted finish that secures the outer fabric to the layers beneath. It gives you a neat sleeping surface that stays in place.
Hypo-allergenic fibre layers
Deep layers of white fibre filling, described as hypo-allergenic. They sandwich the springs, so they may suit you if you're sensitive to bedding fillings.
Small diameter pocket spring interior
Each small diameter coil sits in its own cloth sleeve, between the fibre layers. This is where the firm support comes from.

Key benefits
- 90cm each for two sleepers: You each get 90cm, which is 15cm more per person than the UK king, so a restless partner's turning is far less likely to reach your side.
- Room when children climb in: When a small child arrives after a bad dream, the 180cm width means there's a much better chance everyone still has a share of the mattress.
- Firm support across 6ft: Each small diameter coil sits in its own cloth sleeve between the fibre layers, which means a firm surface across the full width that suits back and front sleepers.
- Two sides to sleep on: It's double-sided, so you can flip it as well as rotate it, although turning a mattress this wide and 27cm deep is a job for two people.
- Extra width, same length as a UK king: At 200cm long it matches the UK king, so all the extra size goes into width, useful when a large dog sleeps on the bed routinely.
This size suits you if...
You share with a partner who tosses and turns all night, or your children and a large dog regularly end up in the bed too. You'll also need a bedroom that comfortably clears our suggested minimum of 3m x 2.9m.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than 3m x 2.9m, or your stairs and landing are tight. We'd recommend the UK king instead, and we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for it.

FAQ's
Is the Highgrove Solar Pocket 1000 super king big enough for two adults and a child?
For most families, yes. A UK super king gives two adults 90cm each, so a small child tucked between you is far easier to fit in than in a UK king. A child lying sideways across the bed will still take up a fair bit of room, though.
What size bedroom do I need for a Highgrove Solar Pocket 1000 super king?
We suggest at least 3m x 2.9m, and around 3.5m x 3.2m tends to feel comfortable once you add bedside tables. In a large master or a period property, a UK king can look a little lost, so the UK super king often suits the room better. Check the door can still open fully.
Will the Highgrove Solar Pocket 1000 super king fit up a narrow staircase?
At 180cm wide and 27cm deep, it's a big object to carry upstairs. Highgrove doesn't publish a weight for this mattress. Measure the narrowest point of your stairs and any landing turns before you order, and check the door frame of the bedroom too.
Highgrove Solar Pocket 1000 super king vs king: how much extra space do you get?
The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king and the same length, so each of you gains 15cm. The trade-off is floor space: we suggest at least 3m x 2.9m for the UK super king, compared with at least 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king.
What bedding fits a Highgrove Solar Pocket 1000 super king?
You'll need UK super king sheets and a 260 x 220cm duvet, which can cost a little more than UK king bedding, so budget for them if you're sizing up. Choose fitted sheets with pockets deep enough for the 27cm depth so the corners stay put.
