Layer Details
- Room to sleep apart, together: At 75cm each for two people sharing, you can both turn over without negotiating territory, which matters if one of you is a restless sleeper.
- Pocket springs plus distance: Pocket springs respond individually rather than moving the bed as a whole, and the wider UK king means your partner's early alarm registers less on your side.
- Extra length for taller sleepers: The UK king is 10cm longer than the UK double at 200cm, which stops anyone approaching six foot pressing their feet against the footboard.
- A softened surface across a bigger bed: The memory foam comfort layer eases the surface feel, which means the firmer spring support underneath arrives a little more gently wherever you settle.
- An affordable route into the size: This model sits at the accessible end for a pocket sprung and memory foam combination, so upgrading to a UK king costs less than it might elsewhere.
This size suits you if...
You and your partner keep different hours, with one of you slipping out well before the other wakes, and you want the movement to go unnoticed. Or you've simply outgrown a UK double: perhaps one of you is over six foot and the 200cm length is the real draw, or a pregnancy has turned the bed into a landscape of pillows that a double can no longer hold.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is under our suggested minimum of 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king. In that case we'd recommend the UK double instead, which needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m and still gives couples a proper shared bed.

Is the Silentnight Mirapocket 1200 Memory in a UK king good for couples?
It suits couples well. The UK king gives 75cm each for two people sharing, and the pocket springs move independently, so one partner shifting position transfers less through the mattress. The memory foam layer holds some warmth, so two hot sleepers may prefer a cooler top layer, but for reducing disturbance the size and spring type work together.
Will a UK king stop me feeling my partner get up early?
It helps on two fronts. Pocket springs respond to each body separately rather than tilting the whole surface, and the extra width of the UK king, 15cm more than a UK double, puts more distance and more springs between you. No mattress removes movement entirely, but this combination softens a 5am departure considerably.
Is the UK king long enough for someone over six foot?
At 200cm, the UK king gives 10cm more length than the UK double, and for many taller sleepers that length is the real reason to upgrade. It converts to 5ft x 6ft 6in, so someone a little over six foot fits with room to spare. If you need width as well, the UK super king is 30cm wider at the same length.
Should I get this mattress in a UK king or a UK super king?
The UK king suits most couples: it needs a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m by our guidance, against at least 3m x 2.9m for the UK super king. Both are the same 200cm length, so sizing up buys width alone, 30cm of it. If a dog routinely claims part of the bed, that extra width may be the better spend.
Where can I buy the Silentnight Mirapocket 1200 Memory in a UK king?
Compare the retailers listed on this page. The prices shown here are updated as retailers change them, so it's worth checking back before you commit, and always confirm you're ordering the UK king (150 x 200cm) rather than a EU king, which has different dimensions and needs different bedding.
