Layer Details
Microquilted cover
A quilted cover made with eco-friendly Tencel®, a natural fabric that helps control moisture, so the surface stays drier through the night. It's also a gentle choice if you have sensitive skin.
Reflex foam
A layer of Reflex foam, a firmer, more responsive alternative to memory foam. You get cushioning without the slow, sinking feel, which suits people who move around in the night.
Open coil springs
Open coil springs form the support core, with reinforced sprung edges so you can use the full width of the mattress without the sides collapsing. This is what gives the mattress its firm, supportive feel.

Key benefits
- Edges you can sleep on: Reinforced sprung edges hold firm right to the side, which means each partner's 67.5cm feels usable rather than losing a strip where the border sags.
- Fits a typical UK bedroom: We suggest a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m, so bedside tables on both sides are realistic in most standard master bedrooms and many second bedrooms.
- A cooler surface for two: Two bodies on a UK double generate more warmth, and the moisture-wicking Tencel cover helps keep the surface drier if either of you runs hot.
- Simple to dress: Standard double sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet fit, which helps when you're kitting out a first flat or a spare room in one go.
- Firm support that stays level: The open coil core gives a firm, even feel across the whole 135cm width, so neither side of the bed dips towards the middle.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a partner and your room sits around our suggested 2.6m x 2.8m, or you're furnishing a guest room for visiting couples and want a proper shared size that still leaves space for a wardrobe and drawers.
Consider another size if...
Either of you is tall or you both like to spread out. We'd recommend the UK king instead: it is 10cm longer, gives 7.5cm more each, and needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

FAQ's
Is the Sleep Story Cool Sleep UK double wide enough for two people?
For most couples, yes. The UK double gives 67.5cm each, and the reinforced sprung edges mean you can sleep close to the side without feeling you'll roll off. The open coil springs do pass movement across the bed more than pocket springs, so a light sleeper sharing this width may notice a restless partner.
Will the Sleep Story Cool Sleep in a UK double fit a room with bedside tables?
We suggest allowing at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, with around 3m x 3m feeling comfortable. In a room around our minimum, slim bedside tables on both sides usually work. If your room is smaller, measure the walk-around space before you order.
Sleep Story Cool Sleep double or king for a couple?
The UK king is 15cm wider and 10cm longer than the UK double, giving each person 7.5cm more. It also needs more floor space: we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king, against 2.6m x 2.8m for the UK double. If your room is tight, the UK double is the more practical fit.
Should I get the Sleep Story Cool Sleep in a small double or a double?
The UK double is 15cm wider than the UK small double, with the same length. For two adults sharing nightly, that extra width matters. The UK small double suits a solo sleeper or an occasional guest bed, and we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for it.
Is the Sleep Story Cool Sleep UK double a good guest bed?
It suits a guest room well if you host couples, since the UK double fits most spare rooms and takes standard bedding. Bear in mind the feel is firm, so lighter guests who sleep on their side may find it a little unforgiving on shoulders and hips.
