Layer Details
- Cover. A quilted cover enriched with aloe vera and antimicrobial properties, which means a fresher, softer sleep surface. It's a small touch, but a pleasant one for allergy-prone sleepers.
- Comfort Fillings. Eco Comfort Fibres, breathable sustainable fibres that are 100% recyclable, sit alongside a natural silk layer known for its softness and lightweight feel. Together they give the surface its gentle, airy cushioning.
- Support System. 2000 individually pocketed springs work independently, which means tailored support where your body presses hardest, typically hips and shoulders. This also helps limit motion transfer between partners.
- Base. A sturdy, non-slip base keeps the mattress stable on your bed frame. Nothing fancy, but it does its job.

- More room each: At 75cm per person, you get 7.5cm more each than on the UK double, enough to stretch an arm out without it landing on someone.
- Quieter early starts: Independent pocket springs, combined with the wider UK king surface, mean a partner leaving before dawn is less likely to send movement across to your side.
- Length for taller sleepers: At 200cm, the UK king is 10cm longer than the UK double, so feet stay on the mattress rather than hanging over the end.
- Space to shift position: If pregnancy has you building a wall of support pillows, the extra width leaves room for them without pushing your partner towards the edge.
- Fits more bedrooms than a super king: We suggest allowing at least 2.7m x 2.9m, a slightly smaller footprint than the UK super king needs.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and have started to feel cramped on a UK double, one of you is tall enough to be pressed against the footboard of a 190cm mattress, or your working hours differ and each other's movements keep waking you.
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 Minerva 2000 UK king big enough for two adults?
For most couples, yes. The UK king gives 75cm each for two sharing, compared with 67.5cm each on the UK double, so you gain 7.5cm of personal width. If you still want more elbow room than that, the UK super king gives 90cm each.
Is the Minerva 2000 in a UK king long enough if you're over 6ft?
The UK king measures 200cm long, which is 6ft 6in, and that is 10cm longer than the UK double. For a partner approaching or just over 6ft, that extra length is often the real reason to upgrade, since it stops feet reaching the very end of the mattress.
Will I feel my partner getting up on a Minerva 2000 UK king?
Less than on a narrower size. The 2000 pocketed springs move independently, so pressure on one side stays mostly local, and the 75cm each on a UK king puts a little more distance between you. A heavier partner getting out quickly may still register slightly.
Minerva 2000 UK king or super king for a couple?
The UK king is 30cm narrower than the UK super king and the same length, giving 15cm less each. The UK super king needs at least 3m x 2.9m by our guidance, against 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king, so room size usually decides it.
Will a Minerva 2000 king size fit in a new build master bedroom?
Measure after wardrobes and drawers are in, because new build rooms often shrink once furniture arrives. We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king, with 3.2m x 3.2m feeling comfortable. If you fall short, the UK double needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m.
