Layer Details
COOLMAX sleep surface
A soft-touch, highly breathable COOLMAX fabric that channels heat and moisture away from your body. It should feel dry and fresh against the skin, which helps if you tend to sleep warm.
Comfort Breathe Fibre
A fibre layer made with extra breathable fibres to keep you cool and comfortable. It adds a soft cushion under the cover while letting air move through.
Mini springs
1000 mini springs that respond to even the smallest movement and improve airflow. You get a responsive, comfortable feel, and the springs help air circulate through the mattress.
Airmesh comfort layer
A 3D honeycomb layer that increases airflow around your body by making use of your natural movement in your sleep. It is there to keep you cooler without relying on foam.
Mirapocket springs
600 Mirapocket pocket springs that adjust to your body and give zoned support to improve spinal alignment. They are the main support layer, so they do most of the work of keeping your back well positioned.
Protective layer
A base layer that spreads the pressure from each spring over the full surface of the mattress. This helps the mattress last longer, though you won't feel it as part of the comfort.

Key benefits
- Fits compact rooms: At 90cm wide, it leaves floor space free in a child's room where the bed competes with a wardrobe, desk and toy storage.
- A medium feel for growing sleepers: The medium firmness suits children and teens whose weight and sleeping position will change over the years, without being so soft they sink in.
- Pocket springs, sized for one: Each spring moves independently, which means the support follows a single sleeper's shape rather than sagging toward the middle.
- Cheap, easy bedding: Standard single sheets and a single duvet fit, and both are the most widely stocked bedding sizes in UK shops.
- Sensible for spare rooms: In a study that doubles as guest space, the UK single takes up far less room than a double while still sleeping an adult comfortably.
This size suits you if...
You're buying for a child or teenager moving up from a cot or toddler bed, you're a single adult in a compact bedroom or first flat where a wider bed simply won't fit, or you're kitting out a spare room that spends most of its life as an office. The medium feel is forgiving enough for lighter, younger sleepers while still offering proper spring support.
Consider another size if...
You're an adult who has outgrown 90cm of width, or you share the bed even occasionally. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which is 45cm wider and the same length; allow at least 2.6m x 2.8m of floor space for it.

FAQ's
Is the Silentnight Eco Comfort Airmesh 1600 UK single big enough for an adult?
Yes for one adult sleeping alone. At 90 x 190cm it's the standard UK one-person size, and the pocket springs support a single sleeper well. Taller adults should note the 190cm length, which is 10cm shorter than a UK king. If you regularly share, or you like to spread out, size up.
Will the UK single Eco Comfort Airmesh 1600 fit a bunk or mid sleeper frame?
The 90 x 190cm footprint matches standard UK bunk and mid-sleeper frames, so width and length should be fine. Raised frames also have depth limits for the guard rail, though, and Silentnight's published details for this mattress don't include depth, so check the brand's own guidance against your frame's maximum before buying.
Is a UK single Eco Comfort Airmesh 1600 a good choice for a child's room?
It's a sensible fit. The medium pocket spring feel suits children and teens as they grow, and the 90cm width leaves space for a desk and storage in a smaller bedroom. If two siblings share, two UK singles plus a walkway need more floor space, so measure before ordering a pair.
How much room do I need for a single Eco Comfort Airmesh 1600?
We suggest at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space, which gives you room to walk around the bed and open drawers or a wardrobe. That's our own guidance rather than Silentnight's. Loft conversions and box rooms often meet it comfortably, which is part of why the UK single remains the default for smaller spaces.
Where can I buy the Eco Comfort Airmesh 1600 in a single?
Availability shifts, so the most reliable answer is the live comparison table on this page, where prices are updated as retailers change them. Stock can differ by size, so a retailer listing the UK double won't always carry the UK single. Compare what's shown here rather than assuming every Silentnight stockist has it.
