Layer Details
Cool-to-touch sleep surface
The SensICE fabric gives an instant cooling effect against your skin, drawing heat away from your body. In practice, that means the bed feels cool when you climb in rather than warming up straight away.
Gel infused comfort layer
A responsive gel infused layer that adapts as you move and bounces back. You get cushioning without the slow, stuck-in feeling some soft foams can have.
Extremely breathable foam
Silentnight states this foam is 5X more breathable than memory foam, working alongside the gel layer. Air moves through it more freely, which helps stop heat gathering under you overnight.
Plush pillowtop
A boxtop layer that adds a soft, soothing top surface. It's a big part of why this mattress feels so cushioned on first contact.
Spring support system
2,000 Mirapocket springs combine with 1,000 mini springs for pressure relief and undisturbed sleep. Each spring moves on its own, so you feel supported where you need it and less of your partner's movement.

Key benefits
- Leaves floor space free: At 3ft x 6ft 3in, the UK single leaves space for a wardrobe, desk and toy storage in a compact bedroom, and we suggest a room of at least 2.1m x 2.8m.
- Two beds in one spare room: Two UK singles can sit side by side with a walkway between them, which suits siblings sharing a room or a guest room that sleeps two friends apart.
- A cool surface for warm sleepers: The SensICE fabric feels cool when a teenager or guest first gets in, which helps because a soft pillowtop lets you sink further into warmer layers.
- Cushioned feel for side sleepers: The plush pillowtop over 2,000 Mirapocket springs and 1,000 mini springs gives a sink-in softness that lighter side sleepers, including many older children, tend to find comfortable.
- A sensible upgrade for a student room: If a first flat or student room comes with a single frame but no decent mattress, the UK single slots straight in and feels far plusher than a basic foam one.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and like a soft, cushioned bed that feels cool when you get in, or you're furnishing a child's or teenager's room where the bed has to share space with a desk and storage. It also suits a spare room that doubles as an office, where a narrow bed keeps the rest of the floor usable.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed, or you're tall and want extra length. We'd recommend the UK king instead: it gives 75cm each for two sharing, and we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king.

FAQ's
Will the UltraGel CoolTouch 3000 single fit a bunk bed or mid sleeper?
It will fit the 90 x 190cm base of a standard UK single frame, but depth is the catch. At 37cm, it's a lot taller than most bunk mattresses, and raised frames usually set a maximum depth so the safety rail stays high enough. Check the frame maker's limit before buying, and choose a lower-profile mattress if the UltraGel exceeds it.
Is the Silentnight UltraGel CoolTouch 3000 single good for a child or teenager?
For a teenager on a standard-height bed it can suit well, particularly one who sleeps on their side or runs warm, since the SensICE surface feels cool on contact. It's a soft mattress, so a child who sleeps mainly on their front may be better on something firmer. For younger children in raised beds, the 37cm depth is the main thing to check.
What size room do I need for a Silentnight UltraGel CoolTouch 3000 single?
We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space for a UK single. That gives room to walk around the bed and open drawers. If you're fitting two singles for siblings or guests, plan for a clear walkway between them as well.
Is a UK single UltraGel CoolTouch 3000 big enough for an adult?
For one adult of average height, the UK single's 90 x 190cm (3ft x 6ft 3in) is workable, and plenty of solo adults sleep well on it. If you're tall, bear in mind that the UK king is 10cm longer. If you like to spread out, the UK small double is 30cm wider and the same length.
Is the UltraGel CoolTouch 3000 single a good choice for a guest room?
Yes, if your guests tend to prefer a soft bed. The pillowtop gives an immediately cushioned feel that most visitors find welcoming. Two UK singles also let you host friends who won't share a bed. Guests who need a firm surface for back or front sleeping may find it a little too soft.
