Layer Details
- More room each: At 75cm each for two sharing, the UK king gives you 7.5cm more each than the UK double, which means fewer nights woken by a stray arm or a stolen pillow.
- Extra length for taller partners: The UK king is 10cm longer than the UK double, so a partner over six foot is far less likely to find their feet at the very edge.
- Less disturbance from each other: Pocket springs respond individually, and a UK king also puts more distance between you, so an early alarm on one side is slightly less likely to rouse the other.
- Fits where a super king won't: We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king against 3m x 2.9m for the UK super king, handy in a new build bedroom once wardrobes are fitted.
This size suits you if...
you share the bed every night and have started waking each other on a UK double, or one of you is tall enough that the extra length matters as much as the extra width.
Consider another size if...
your bedroom is smaller than our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

Is the Millbrook Luxury 1000 Ortho UK king big enough for two people?
For most couples, yes. The UK king gives 75cm each for two sharing, which is 7.5cm more each than the UK double. That extra space is small on paper but you notice it when you turn over at night. If you both sprawl, the UK super king offers 90cm each.
Will a tall person fit on the Millbrook Luxury 1000 Ortho in a UK king?
The UK king is 200cm long, or 6ft 6in, and 10cm longer than the UK double and UK small double. If one of you is over six foot, that length is often the real reason to upgrade. The UK super king is the same length, so sizing up adds width only.
UK king or UK super king Millbrook Luxury 1000 Ortho: which should I choose?
The UK king is 30cm narrower than the UK super king and the same length, giving 15cm less each. The trade is floor space: we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king and 3m x 2.9m for a UK super king. In a tighter room, the UK king is the sensible choice.
Will I feel my partner move on a UK king Millbrook Luxury 1000 Ortho?
Less than on a smaller bed, although probably not never. The 1,000 pocket springs move independently, so one person shifting has a limited effect on the other side, and the UK king adds distance between you. That helps if you keep different hours and one of you leaves the house early.
Is a UK king Millbrook Luxury 1000 Ortho a good size during pregnancy?
The UK king's 75cm each leaves room for a support pillow and frequent changes of position without crowding your partner. The catch is feel: Millbrook doesn't publish a firmness rating, and ortho-style mattresses can feel firm for side sleepers, so check the retailer's own description before buying.
