Layer Details
- Deep open-cell memory foam. An open-cell comfort layer that actively cools as you sleep, which means the pressure-relieving hug of memory foam with less of the heat build-up the material is known for. This is the layer you'll feel first when you lie down.
- 5000 dual-layer pocket springs. A dual-layer arrangement of 5,000 pocket springs with multi-zoned support and an encapsulated edge, which means precise contouring to your body and a firmer perimeter so you can use the full width of the bed. It also gives superior motion isolation, so a restless partner is less likely to wake you.

- Room to spread out alone: At 30cm wider than a UK single, you can lie diagonally or curl round a pillow, while the 7.5/10 tension keeps your spine supported as you shift.
- Usable right to the sides: The encapsulated spring edge means you can sleep close to the perimeter without feeling you'll roll off, which matters more on a narrower mattress.
- Leaves space for the door: Being 15cm narrower than a UK double can be the difference between a bedroom door that swings freely and one that catches the frame in a box room or studio.
- Calm for occasional sharers: When two guests do share, the zoned pocket springs help stop one person's turning from travelling across to the other.
- Easier under a sloping ceiling: In a loft conversion, the narrower footprint lets you tuck one side under the slope and keep more headroom on the side you climb out of.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and have outgrown a UK single but still want to spread out, or you're setting up a compact guest room where couples stay now and then rather than every night, and the room clears our suggested 2.4m x 2.8m.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed every night, as two adults will feel cramped on a mattress this narrow. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each; allow at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

Is the Rem-Fit 5000 Lux Elite small double big enough for one adult?
For most solo sleepers, yes. At 120 x 190cm (4ft x 6ft 3in) it gives 30cm more width than a UK single, so there is room to move and stretch. The length matches a UK single, though, so if you're tall and like your feet fully on the mattress, check your height against the 190cm length first.
Should I buy the Rem-Fit 5000 Lux Elite in a small double or a double?
Choose the UK small double if you sleep alone or your room is tight, since it's 15cm narrower and we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m. If two of you share nightly, the UK double gives 67.5cm each and needs a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m.
Will a Rem-Fit 5000 Lux Elite small double fit in a box room?
Often, yes, as long as the room is around our suggested minimum of 2.4m x 2.8m. Before buying, measure where the door swings and where any wardrobe opens, because a narrow room can fit the mattress but still leave you squeezing past it.
Is the Rem-Fit 5000 Lux Elite small double a good guest bed?
It suits a guest room well if most visitors come alone and couples stay only occasionally. Two people can manage a weekend on it, and the pocket springs help limit disturbance, but it's a snug fit for two, so regular sharing guests would be more comfortable on the UK double.
Is a small double Rem-Fit 5000 Lux Elite suitable for a teenager?
It's a sensible step up for a teenager who has outgrown a UK single, adding 30cm of width without a longer footprint. One caution: at a medium-firm 7.5/10, a slim teenager who sleeps on their side may find it a little firm at the shoulder.
