Layer Details
Knitted cover
A soft knitted finish that adds cosiness and warmth to the sleep surface. Hand tufting locks the fillings in place, which means the comfort layers stay put rather than migrating over the years.
Soft White Fibres
Synthetic fillings made from recycled polyester create a cosy top layer, and they're highly breathable, which helps heat escape rather than build up. It's a softer touch above the firmer support beneath.
Pocket Springs
1,000 individual springs, each encased in its own fabric pouch, respond to your body shape independently. That means movement on one side of the bed is absorbed rather than passed across to your partner.

Key benefits
- Room to sprawl on your own: At 120cm wide, you can lie diagonally or starfish without an arm dropping over the side, something a UK single rarely allows an adult.
- Leaves space for the door: Being 15cm narrower than a UK double, it can leave enough floor for a door to swing open fully in a box room or studio flat.
- Copes with the occasional couple: Two guests can share it for a weekend, and the independent springs absorb much of one person's movement, so the other is less likely to be woken.
- Easier to live with under a sloping ceiling: In a loft conversion, the narrower frame keeps more of the full-height floor free, so you can stand beside the bed rather than stooping.
- Straightforward to furnish: At 4ft x 6ft 3in it matches a common UK frame size, so finding a base, headboard or fitted sheets should be simple.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and keep ending up at the edge of a UK single, your bedroom meets our suggested minimum of 2.4m x 2.8m but feels cramped with anything bigger, or you're setting up a guest room where couples stay only now and then.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed with a partner every night and you both want room to move. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each; allow at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

FAQ's
Will a Novaro 1000 UK small double fit in a box room?
We suggest a room of at least 2.4m x 2.8m for the UK small double. The mattress measures 120 x 190cm (4ft x 6ft 3in), so check the arc of your door and any wardrobe doors before ordering. In a tight box room, that clearance often matters more than the total floor area.
Is the Novaro 1000 small double big enough for two adults?
For occasional stays, yes, and the independent pocket springs help limit disturbance when one of you turns over. The UK small double is 15cm narrower than the UK double, though, so for sharing every night the UK double, which gives 67.5cm each, will feel noticeably more comfortable.
Is a UK small double Novaro 1000 a good upgrade from a single for a teenager?
It's a sensible step up if the room can't spare much floor space. The UK small double is 30cm wider than the UK single but the same 190cm length, so a growing teenager gains room to spread out sideways, although very tall teens won't get any extra length.
Does the Novaro 1000 in a UK small double suit a loft conversion?
It often does. Sloping ceilings limit where you can stand, and the 120cm width leaves more of the full-height floor clear than a UK double would. Measure the usable area rather than the whole room, and aim for at least 2.4m x 2.8m.
Novaro 1000 small double or double if I sleep alone?
If your room allows at least 2.6m x 2.8m and you like plenty of space, the UK double gives you more. If floor space is tight, the UK small double still offers 30cm more width than a single. Compare the retailers listed on this page, as prices shown here update when retailers change them.
