2000 Zoned Mirapocket spring system
- A width most rooms can take: At 135cm wide, the UK double fits comfortably in rooms where a larger bed would crowd the walkways and wardrobe doors.
- 67.5cm each for two people sharing: Each partner gets 67.5cm of that plush box top surface, enough for most couples who sleep reasonably close.
- Springs that keep movement quiet: The Mirapocket spring system spreads weight evenly, which means one of you can turn over without waking the other.
- Bedding is easy and cheap to find: Double sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet are stocked everywhere, though the 39cm depth means you'll need deep fitted sheets.
- Room for bedside tables: In a room of around 3m x 3m, a UK double usually still leaves space for a bedside table on each side.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed as a couple and your bedroom is a typical UK size, roughly 2.6m x 2.8m or a little more. It also suits you if you sleep alone but like to spread out, or share your side with a dog or cat who has claimed a corner. A soft, sink-in feel appeals more than a firm surface.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner both like plenty of personal space, or one of you is a restless sleeper. The extra 15cm of width and 10cm of length in the UK king makes a real difference; allow at least 2.7m x 2.9m for it.

Is a UK double Mirapocket 2000 Deluxe Box Top big enough for a couple?
For most couples, yes. You each get 67.5cm of width, and the Mirapocket springs limit how much you feel a partner moving. If either of you is broad-shouldered or you both sprawl, the UK king adds 15cm of width and 10cm of length, provided your room allows at least 2.7m x 2.9m.
What room size do I need for this mattress in a UK double?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m, with around 3m x 3m the comfortable norm. That larger figure gives you space for bedside tables on both sides plus a wardrobe, which matters in a first flat or a second bedroom where the bed shares the room with storage.
Will standard double fitted sheets fit this mattress?
Double sheets are the easiest bedding to buy in the UK, stocked everywhere at every price. The one catch is depth: this mattress is 39cm deep, taller than many standard fitted sheets allow for, so choose deep or extra-deep double fitted sheets. A 200 x 200cm double duvet is the usual pairing.
Is the double a good choice for a guest room?
Yes, it's arguably the ideal guest size: visiting couples can share it comfortably, and the 135 x 190cm footprint fits rooms a king would dominate. The medium soft feel divides opinion more than a medium would, so it suits guests who like a cushioned surface rather than a firm one.
How much bigger is the UK double than the UK small double?
The UK double is 15cm wider than the UK small double, and the two are the same length at 190cm. For one person the difference is a luxury; for a couple it's meaningful, since that extra width is shared between you. The UK small double needs a room of at least 2.4m x 2.8m.
