Layer Details
Smart Latex
A 50mm layer of reactive natural latex foam that provides soothing support. Latex responds quickly to movement, which means gentle pressure relief without the sinking feeling of slower foams.
Pocket Springs
1,600 pocket springs (counted on the kingsize) work alongside the latex, each one individually encapsulated. This lets every spring react to your body shape on its own, which you'll feel as more tailored support and less disturbance from a partner's movement.

Key benefits
- Room to move without waking anyone: The UK king is 15cm wider than the UK Double, which means a restless sleeper can shift position without pulling the pair of you together.
- Pocket springs across a wider surface: The 1,600 pocket springs, counted on this kingsize, are individually encapsulated, so a partner getting up early registers as very little movement on your side.
- Extra length for taller sleepers: At 200cm, the UK king is 10cm longer than the UK Double, a genuine relief if one of you is approaching six foot.
- Latex that responds quickly at this scale: The reactive latex layer springs back as you move, so crossing a wider mattress to settle or reposition never feels like wading through slow foam.
- Usable edges on both sides: Foam encapsulated edge support means the full 150cm width is sleepable, useful when a dog or a small visitor claims the middle.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and a double has started to feel cramped, especially with a soft to medium mattress where you both settle in rather than perch on top. You and your partner keep different hours and want movement on one side to stay on that side. Or one of you is tall enough that the extra 10cm of length over a UK double is the real reason you're upgrading.
Consider another size if...
Your room is smaller than the 2.7m x 2.9m we suggest for a UK king, or you sleep alone. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m and still gives a solo sleeper generous space.

FAQ's
Is a UK king big enough for couples on the Kaymed Smart Latex 1600?
For most couples, yes. You get 75cm each for two people sharing, and because this is a soft to medium mattress you sink in slightly rather than lying on the surface, so the extra width over a UK double is space you actually feel. Heavier couples wanting maximum separation might prefer the UK super king.
Does the king size Kaymed Smart Latex 1600 reduce partner disturbance?
It helps on two fronts. The individually encapsulated pocket springs react to each body separately, so movement stays localised, and the width of the UK king means you're rarely close enough for it to matter. If one of you gets up hours before the other, that combination makes a real difference.
Will the Kaymed Smart Latex 1600 UK king suit a tall sleeper?
At 200cm long, it gives you 10cm more length than a UK double, which matters once someone is approaching six foot and their feet hang over a standard-length mattress. If height is your main reason for upgrading, the UK king delivers it without demanding the floor space of a UK super king.
What room size do I need for a king size mattress?
We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king, which leaves walking space and room for bedside tables on both sides. A new build master bedroom can shrink surprisingly once wardrobes go in, so measure the usable floor rather than the room on the plan before committing.
How big is the Kaymed Smart Latex 1600 in a UK king?
It measures 150 x 200cm, or 5ft x 6ft 6in. That makes it 15cm wider and 10cm longer than the UK double, and 30cm narrower than the UK super king. Standard UK king sheets fit it, and the prices shown on this page are updated as retailers change them.
