Silentnight Airmesh 1600 Eco Comfort Single Mattress
The Silentnight Airmesh 1600 Eco Comfort is a pocket spring mattress with a medium firm feel, which means the springs respond to your body individually rather than moving as one unit, so you should feel less disturbance from a restless partner.
- Medium-firm feel suits most sleepers

Layer Details
Coolmax cover
A soft, tactile cover made with Coolmax, which is designed to feel cool against the skin. It gives you a smooth, fresh-feeling surface to settle onto.
Comfort Breathe Fibre
A breathable fibre filling with a soft feel. It adds a little cushioning under the cover while letting air move through, so heat is less likely to build up.
1000 mini pocket springs
1,000 mini pocket springs that respond instantly to small movements through the night. This means the surface adjusts as you shift, rather than pushing back in one go.
Airmesh layer
A 3D honeycomb design that uses your body movement to push air around inside the mattress. The aim is better air circulation, which should help you stay fresher as you sleep.
600 Mirapocket springs
600 pocket springs that give deeper support and are designed to improve posture. This is the layer that helps keep your hips and spine in line.
Support pad
A supportive foundation for the layers above. You won't feel it directly, but it gives the springs a stable base to work from.

Key benefits
- Fits where other sizes won't: At 3ft x 6ft 3in it slots into box rooms, loft conversions and under sloped ceilings where a wider mattress simply wouldn't go.
- Supportive enough to grow into: The medium firm pocket springs keep a growing teenager's spine level, which means this can carry a child from first big bed through to sixth form.
- Room to live around it: We suggest just 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space, leaving space for a desk, wardrobe and toy storage in a typical child's bedroom.
- Pairs up in a guest room: Two UK singles with a walkway between them suit a spare room that hosts varied guests, from grandchildren to visiting couples who prefer separate beds.
- Cheap, easy bedding: Standard single sheets and a 135 x 200cm duvet fit, and they're the most widely stocked and least expensive bedding of any UK size.
This size suits you if...
You're setting up a child's or teenager's room and want a mattress firm enough to last the growing years, you're furnishing a spare room or study that doubles as guest space, or you sleep alone in a compact bedroom, student room or first flat where every centimetre of floor matters.
Consider another size if...
You're an adult who likes to stretch out, or you find 90cm of width restrictive. We'd recommend the UK double instead: it's 45cm wider than the UK single and the same length, and we suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m of floor space for it.

FAQ's
What size is the Silentnight Airmesh 1600 in a UK single?
The UK single measures 90 x 190cm, which is 3ft x 6ft 3in. That's the standard one-person size in the UK, so it fits ordinary single bed frames, standard single sheets and a 135 x 200cm duvet without any hunting for special bedding.
Is the UK single Silentnight Airmesh 1600 good for a child or teenager?
Yes, with one caveat. The medium firm pocket springs keep hips level as a child grows, and the springs respond individually rather than as one unit, so it should hold its shape through years of use. Lightweight side sleepers may find it slightly firm at the shoulder, so consider how your child sleeps.
What room size do I need for a UK single mattress?
We suggest at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space. That's our own guidance, not Silentnight's, and it allows for a bedside table and a walkway. In a child's room it leaves reasonable space for a desk and wardrobe alongside the bed.
Will the Silentnight Airmesh 1600 single fit a bunk or mid sleeper frame?
The 90 x 190cm footprint matches standard UK bunk and mid sleeper frames. Raised frames often have depth limits and guard rail requirements, though, and Silentnight doesn't publish full construction detail for this mattress, so check its depth against your frame's guidance with the retailer before ordering.
Is a UK single big enough for an adult guest room?
For occasional guests, yes. A UK single sleeps one adult comfortably, and the medium firm feel suits most back and stomach sleepers. If your spare room regularly hosts couples and the space allows, the UK small double is 30cm wider and the same length; we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for it.
