Layer Details
- 90cm each for two sharing: Each of you gets 90cm of width, which means turning over, spreading out or a child climbing in rarely wakes the other person.
- Distance plus pocket springs: The springs isolate movement and the width adds physical distance, so a fidgety partner is doubly muffled at this size.
- Space for the whole household: When children or a large dog treat your bed as theirs, 180cm of width means everyone still gets a workable share.
- 30cm wider than a UK king: That extra 30cm over the UK king is the difference between comfortable and genuinely undisturbed, at the same 200cm length.
- Suits a large master bedroom: In a period property or generous new build master, a smaller bed can look lost, and the UK super king fills the space properly.
This size suits you if...
You share every night and want the most space a standard UK size offers, your partner is genuinely restless and distance matters more to you than any comfort layer, or children and pets regularly join you and the bed needs to absorb the extra bodies. Your room should measure at least 3m x 2.9m by our guidance, ideally more, so the super king works rather than dominates.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom falls short of the 3m x 2.9m we suggest as a minimum, or you sleep alone. We'd recommend the UK king instead: it's 30cm narrower, the same length, and we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for it.

Is the Hypnos Wool Origins 8 super king big enough for a family sharing the bed?
It's the most forgiving size for it. At 180cm wide, two adults and a wandering child can usually all settle without anyone perching on an edge, and the pocket springs mean a small body climbing in at 3am moves their patch of the mattress rather than yours. Large dogs who share as routine fit the same logic.
How much space does each person get on the super king Wool Origins 8?
90cm each for two people sharing, which matches the width of a whole single bed apiece. Combined with pocket springs that respond to each sleeper separately, that's why this size suits couples where one person is noticeably more restless than the other: distance does what no comfort layer can.
Will the Hypnos Wool Origins 8 super king 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 so you can walk round both sides and open drawers, and around 3.5m x 3.2m feels comfortable. In a loft conversion, check the slope leaves headroom on the wall the bed must take.
Is the super king worth it over the king for this mattress?
If your room clears our suggested 3m x 2.9m minimum and you share the bed, usually yes. The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king at the same length, and that width is what turns a partner's tossing from an annoyance into background noise. In a large master, a king can also simply look undersized.
What should I check before ordering the Wool Origins 8 in a super king?
Measure the route in, since a 180cm wide mattress meets its match on tight landing turns and narrow door swings. Budget for super king sheets and a 260 x 220cm duvet, which cost more than king bedding. And compare the retailers listed on this page, as the prices shown here are updated as retailers change them.
