- A shared size that fits real rooms: At 135cm wide, the UK double leaves space for a wardrobe and drawers where a UK king would crowd the walls.
- Room for bedside tables on both sides: In a room around the 2.6m x 2.8m minimum we suggest, the UK double usually still allows a small table each side.
- Pillowtop comfort for two: The pillowtop finish gives a softer surface over the pocket springs, which two sharers with different sleep positions tend to appreciate.
- Easy and cheap to dress: Double sheets and 200 x 200cm duvets are sold everywhere at every price point, useful if you're kitting out a whole home at once.
- Generous for one: Sleeping alone, you get the full 135cm to spread across, ample even with a cat or dog claiming a corner.
This size suits you if...
You're a couple in a typical UK bedroom and want a shared bed that doesn't dominate the room, you're furnishing a first flat or guest room where visiting pairs will stay, or you sleep alone and want space to stretch out. It also suits buyers who like the pillowtop's softer surface feel but need a footprint that leaves walking room around the bed.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner both like space, or one of you sleeps restlessly, because 67.5cm each can feel tight. We'd recommend the UK king instead: it gives 75cm each and 10cm more length, and needs a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

Is the UK double Millbrook Allure Pillowtop big enough for a couple?
It's the traditional couples' size, giving 67.5cm each for two people sharing. That works well for most pairs, although if either of you is broad, tall or a restless sleeper, the UK king gives 75cm each and 10cm more length, so it may be the calmer choice.
What room size do I need for the Millbrook Allure in a UK double?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m, which is our own guidance rather than Millbrook's. That allows the bed itself plus enough clearance to open drawers and walk around. If your room is comfortably bigger, around 3m x 3m, you could also consider the UK king, which needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m.
How much smaller is the UK double than the UK king?
The UK double is 15cm narrower and 10cm shorter than the UK king. For two sharing, that means 7.5cm less width each. If your room can take it and you value space over floor area, the UK king is the roomier option; the UK double keeps more of the room free.
Will this mattress fit through the stairs in an older house?
A 135 x 190cm mattress is manageable in most homes, but pillowtop pocket-sprung mattresses can be heavy and less flexible than foam, and Millbrook doesn't publish handling details for this model. If you have a turning staircase in an older terrace or a tight new build landing, measure the awkward points and check with the retailer before ordering.
What bedding fits the Millbrook Allure in a UK double?
Standard UK double sheets fit the 135 x 190cm footprint, paired with a 200 x 200cm double duvet. The pillowtop adds height to the surface, so if you buy fitted sheets, deeper-pocketed ones are the safer bet. Double bedding is the most widely stocked size in the UK, so replacements are easy to find.
