Layer Details
Cover
Made from sustainably sourced natural cotton with a natural fire retardancy treatment. That means no chemical fire treatments next to your skin.
Comfort layer
Hand tufted with British wool to create a smooth, sturdier surface. Tufting anchors the fillings in place, which means fewer lumps developing over time.
Comfort fillings
Finely filled with sustainably sourced cotton fibres. These are highly breathable and wick away moisture, which helps you stay dry and comfortable overnight.
Solotex™ layer
A recycled synthetic fibre spun to create a breathable, durable filling. It adds a soft, plush layer above the springs.
eOlus™ fibres
Made from recycled plastic bottles, these bring extra comfort while reducing landfill waste. A small sustainability win baked into the build.
Support system
1200 ReActive 6-turn pocket springs, which means each spring responds to your body independently for even support. Rod edging around the unit firms up the perimeter.

- Space that absorbs restlessness: With 90cm each for two people sharing, a partner who fidgets or turns often is simply further away, and the 1200 pocket springs move independently to limit transfer.
- Room for the whole household: If children or a large dog treat your bed as theirs by dawn, the extra width means everyone keeps a workable share of the mattress.
- Firm support across the full width: The medium firm feel and rod edging hold up at the sides, so nobody drifts towards the middle even on a bed this wide.
- Cooler for two sharing: Wool and cotton fillings breathe well, which matters more at this size where two bodies, and sometimes more, are warming the same bed.
- Fills a large master properly: In a big room or period property a smaller bed can look lost, whereas the 6ft x 6ft 6in footprint sits in proportion.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and want the maximum sleeping space stocked as standard in the UK, your partner is genuinely restless and distance matters more than any comfort layer, or children and pets regularly join you and a UK king has started to feel crowded. Your bedroom should measure at least 3m x 2.9m, ideally more, so the bed doesn't dominate the room.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom falls short of the 3m x 2.9m we suggest, or you can't get a 180cm wide mattress round your landing. We'd recommend the UK king instead: it's 30cm narrower, the same length, and needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

Is a super king too big for my bedroom?
It might be. We suggest at least 3m x 2.9m for a UK super king, and that's a working minimum rather than a comfortable one. Measure with wardrobe doors open and check the door swing clears the foot of the bed. If the room is tight, the UK king needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m and gives up only 30cm of width.
Will the Hypnos Burford Ortho Comfort super king get up my stairs?
At 180cm wide and 27cm deep, a pocket spring mattress like this doesn't roll or fold, so tight landings and turns in the staircase are the real obstacle. Measure the narrowest point of the route before ordering, including any low ceilings on the turn. Loft conversions with sloped stairs deserve particular care.
Is the super king Burford Ortho Comfort good for couples with children who come in at night?
It's one of the better choices for exactly that. Two adults get 90cm each, so a small visitor at 3am still leaves everyone a reasonable share. The medium firm springs respond to each body independently, and the rod edging keeps the perimeter supportive when someone ends up sleeping near it.
How much bigger is a UK super king than a UK king?
The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king, and both are the same 200cm length. That extra width is where the difference shows: with a restless partner, or a dog who claims the middle, 30cm more distance does more for your sleep than any change in mattress construction would.
What bedding does the super king Burford Ortho Comfort need?
Standard UK super king sheets fit the 180 x 200cm footprint, and a 260 x 220cm duvet is the usual pairing. Bedding at this size does cost more than king equivalents, so factor that in. The mattress is 27cm deep, which most super king fitted sheets accommodate, though it's sensible to check the sheet's stated depth.
