- More room each: You get 75cm each for two sharing, which is 7.5cm more than a UK double and enough to stop elbows meeting when one of you turns over.
- Extra length for taller sleepers: At 200cm long (6ft 6in), the UK king is 10cm longer than a UK double, so a partner over six foot can stretch out without their feet overhanging.
- A little distance from a restless partner: The 15cm of extra width over a UK double puts slightly more space between you, which helps when one partner rises hours before the other.
- Space for pillows and shifting position: If you're pregnant or recovering and need a wedge of pillows, the UK king leaves your partner a usable half of the bed.
- Fits more rooms than a super king: We suggest allowing at least 2.7m x 2.9m, which is less floor space than the UK super king needs, so it suits many standard master bedrooms.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and have started to feel cramped on a UK double, or one of you is over six foot and needs the extra 10cm of length. It also fits well when your working hours differ and you want a little more space between you on early mornings.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is under our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m, although you lose 10cm of length.

Is the Rest Assured Knowlton UK king long enough if you're over 6ft?
The UK king is 200cm long, or 6ft 6in, which is 10cm longer than the UK double. For most sleepers over six foot, that extra length is the main reason to choose it. The UK super king is the same length, so sizing up beyond the UK king adds width only.
How much space do two people get on a Knowlton UK king?
Two people sharing get 75cm each. That is 7.5cm more each than the UK double, which gives 67.5cm each. It is a modest gain on paper, but you'll notice it most when one of you shifts position or gets up in the night.
Should couples who disturb each other choose the Knowlton UK king or UK super king?
The UK super king gives 90cm each, which is 15cm more each than the UK king, so it puts more distance between you. It needs at least 3m x 2.9m, though. If your room can't take that, the UK king is a sensible middle step up from a UK double.
What size bedroom do I need for a Rest Assured Knowlton UK king?
We suggest allowing at least 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king, so you can walk around the bed and open drawers comfortably. Measure after wardrobes are in, as fitted furniture in a new build can take more space than you expect.
