Layer Details
- Room to sleep apart, together: At 75cm each for two people sharing, you can both settle into your own space rather than negotiating a shared middle.
- Independent springs across a wider bed: Each of the 1,000 Mirapocket springs responds separately, which means a partner getting up early transmits less movement across the extra width.
- Length for taller sleepers: At 200cm long, the UK king adds 10cm over the UK double, welcome if either of you is nearing six foot.
- Firm support suits restless nights: The ortho-style feel keeps the surface stable when someone is propping pillows or changing position often, though it won't feel plush.
- A modest room requirement for the space gained: We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m, which many UK master bedrooms can manage where a UK super king would crowd them.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and a double has started to feel like a compromise, especially if one of you keeps different hours and gets up while the other sleeps on. It also fits if either partner is tall enough to appreciate the 200cm length, or if you like a firmer, supportive feel rather than a soft, sink-in surface.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom falls short of our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m minimum, or you sleep alone. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which is 15cm narrower and needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m of room.

Is a UK king big enough for a couple with a dog on the bed?
It helps. With 75cm each for two people sharing, a dog claiming the foot or middle of the bed eats into space you can actually spare, which isn't true of a UK double. If the dog is large and permanent, the UK super king is 30cm wider still, though it demands at least 3m x 2.9m of room.
Will the Silentnight 1000 Pocket Ortho king fit a new build master bedroom?
Usually, but measure first. New build masters often look bigger empty than they are once wardrobes go in. We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king, with more space feeling comfortable. If your room is tighter, the UK double needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m and gives up 15cm of width.
Does the king size reduce partner disturbance on this mattress?
Two things work together here. The 1,000 Mirapocket springs compress independently, so movement doesn't travel across the bed the way it does on a single tensioned surface, and the 150cm width puts more distance between you. If one of you leaves for work hours before the other, that combination matters most.
Is the UK king long enough for someone over six foot?
At 200cm, or 6ft 6in, it suits most tall sleepers, and it's 10cm longer than the UK double. If length is your main reason for upgrading, the UK king already gives you the maximum this mattress offers, since the UK super king is the same length and only adds width.
How much wider is the king than the small double for this mattress?
The UK king is 30cm wider than the UK small double and 10cm longer, a substantial jump for a sharing couple. The small double works for one person or very occasional sharing; at this mattress's firmer, ortho-style feel, two adults sleeping close together every night would find it restrictive.
