Layer Details
Memory foam
A layer of memory foam that contours to your body, which means pressure points like hips and shoulders get cushioned rather than pushed against. Nectar highlights this as the pressure-relieving comfort layer.
Pocket springs
A base of 15cm pocket springs, each moving independently, which means support adapts to where your weight sits and your partner's movements are less noticeable. Springs also let air circulate, helping the mattress sleep cooler.

Key benefits
- Room for two in a normal bedroom: At 135 x 190cm, the UK double leaves space for bedside tables on both sides in most rooms, where a UK king often wouldn't.
- Springs earn more with a partner: The 15cm pocket springs respond to each sleeper separately, which means one of you shifting at 3am doesn't ripple across to the other.
- 67.5cm each for two sharing: That's the standard couples' allowance, comfortable for most pairs, although restless sleepers or broad shoulders may notice the limit.
- A sensible pick for a tight budget: If you're furnishing a whole home at once, this size at Nectar's affordable end covers the main bedroom without swallowing the budget.
- Easiest size to dress: Double sheets and 200 x 200cm duvets are sold everywhere at every price point, useful if you're starting from scratch.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed most nights and your room comfortably takes a 135 x 190cm footprint, or you sleep alone and want space to spread out, perhaps with a pet claiming a corner. It also suits a guest room that hosts visiting couples: the memory foam layer flatters different body shapes without you needing to guess each guest's preference.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner both sleep restlessly, or one of you is tall, because 67.5cm each and 190cm of length can feel tight. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which gives 75cm each; allow at least 2.7m x 2.9m for it.

FAQ's
Is the Nectar Classic Hybrid UK double big enough for a couple?
Yes for most couples. The UK double gives 67.5cm each for two people sharing, which is the long-standing British standard, and the pocket spring base keeps a partner's movement from travelling across the bed. Lighter or stiller sleepers will be perfectly happy; if either of you sprawls, the UK king gives 75cm each.
What size room do I need for the Nectar Classic Hybrid in a UK double?
We suggest allowing at least 2.6m x 2.8m, with around 3m x 3m the comfortable norm. That leaves walking space on both sides and room for bedside tables, which the UK double usually permits where a UK king would crowd the wardrobe or drawers.
Should I choose the Nectar Classic Hybrid in a UK double or a UK king?
The UK double is 15cm narrower and 10cm shorter than the UK king, and the UK king gives 75cm each for two sharing, 7.5cm more per person than the UK double. If your room meets our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king and you share every night, size up. Otherwise the UK double is the sensible fit.
Will the Nectar Classic Hybrid double fit up narrow stairs?
Nectar doesn't publish delivery dimensions or a weight for this size, so we can't say for certain. Hybrids with pocket springs are typically less flexible than all-foam mattresses, so if you have a turning staircase in an older terrace or a tight new build landing, check Nectar's own delivery guidance before you order.
How does the UK double compare with the UK small double for this mattress?
The UK double is 15cm wider than the UK small double and the two are the same length. For a couple, that extra width is the difference between standard comfort and a squeeze, so we'd only pick the UK small double where the room is genuinely short on space; we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for it.
