Layer Details
Cool-to-the-touch fabric cover
The top cover is designed to feel cool when you first lie down. It's a small thing, but a pleasant one on warm nights.
Nectatex® memory foam
This layer cushions pressure points at the shoulders and hips. Nectar states it's 30x more breathable than regular memory foam, so it should trap less heat than the memory foam of old.
Dynamic support foam
A transition layer that promotes spinal alignment, which means your back stays in a more neutral position as you sink into the comfort layer above.
Nectacoil® pocket springs
Each spring flexes independently to adapt to your body, giving more personalised support than foam alone. The springs also improve airflow and help minimise motion transfer between partners.
High-density foam
A firmer foam surround encases the spring layer to shore up the edges. This helps prevent that roll-off feeling when you sleep near the side of the bed.

Key benefits
- The classic couples' footprint: At 135 x 190cm it's the long-standing UK standard for two, giving a shared bed without swallowing an average-sized room.
- Room for bedside tables: In most bedrooms a UK double leaves space for tables on both sides, something a UK king can quietly take away.
- Cooling matters more when you share: Two bodies mean more heat, so the cool-touch cover and breathable Nectatex® foam are especially useful in this shared size.
- Springs that keep the peace: The Nectacoil® pocket springs limit motion transfer, which means a partner turning over at 2am is less likely to wake you.
- Usable edge to edge: With 67.5cm each, the high-density foam edge support counts, letting both of you sleep near the sides without that roll-off feeling.
This size suits you if...
You're a couple in a typical UK bedroom and want a shared bed that still leaves walking space, you're kitting out a first flat or second bedroom where the bed has to coexist with a wardrobe and drawers, or you sleep alone and want space to spread out. Allow at least 2.6m x 2.8m of floor space, with around 3m x 3m the comfortable norm.
Consider another size if...
You share every night and either of you feels hemmed in by 67.5cm each. We'd recommend the UK king instead: 15cm wider and 10cm longer, giving 75cm each, provided your room allows at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

FAQ's
Is the Nectar Elite Cool Hybrid UK double wide enough for two people?
For most couples, yes. You get 67.5cm each, the traditional UK sharing allowance, and the pocket springs reduce the disturbance of a partner moving about. If either of you is broad-shouldered or a sprawler, the UK king gives 75cm each, which is a noticeable difference night to night.
What room size do I need for the Nectar Elite Cool Hybrid in a UK double?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m, with around 3m x 3m the comfortable norm. The mattress itself is 135 x 190cm, and in a room near the minimum you should still manage bedside tables on both sides, though check your door swing and wardrobe placement first.
Should I get the Nectar Elite Cool Hybrid in a UK double or a UK king?
It usually comes down to your room. The UK double suits spaces where a bigger bed would dominate, while the UK king is 15cm wider and 10cm longer, giving couples 75cm each rather than 67.5cm. If your bedroom allows at least 2.7m x 2.9m, sizing up is worth considering.
Is a UK double Nectar Elite Cool Hybrid good for a guest room?
It's a strong guest room choice, since a UK double accommodates visiting couples as well as solo guests, and the medium feel suits a wide range of sleepers you can't predict in advance. The cooling cover is a bonus in a room that only gets occasional airing.
