Layer Details
- Damask Cover. A breathable Belgian damask fabric cover. It lets air move through the sleep surface, which helps if you run warm at night.
- Comfort Fillings. A blend of British wool and silk. Both are natural fibres that wick moisture, so the surface feels comfortable without trapping heat.
- Support Layer. A layer of Ecobond that supports your spine and relieves pressure whatever position you sleep in. This is where the extra firm character of the mattress comes from.
- Comfort Fillings. Polyester and cotton layers with good rebound and recovery, which means the mattress springs back to shape rather than developing body impressions quickly.
- Support System. 1,600 barrel-shaped pocket springs, each mounted in its own fabric pocket and working independently. You get support that follows your body's shape, and less motion transfer from a restless partner.

- Fits the bedrooms most couples actually have: At 135 x 190cm, it leaves floor space for a wardrobe and a chest of drawers where a UK king would crowd the room.
- Less disturbance at close quarters: With 67.5cm each you sleep near one another, and individually pocketed springs mean less of your partner's turning over travels across to you.
- A more manageable size to turn: The double-sided fillings need turning now and again, and the UK double is a slightly easier shape to flip than the UK king or UK super king.
- Room for bedside tables on both sides: In a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m, which we suggest as a minimum, you can usually fit a table each side without squeezing past the bed.
- A firm spare bed for visiting couples: In a guest room, it sleeps two adults who prefer a solid surface without committing the whole room to the bed.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a partner who also likes a properly firm feel, and your bedroom is a typical UK size where floor space has to stretch to storage as well. It also fits if you're setting up a guest room for couples who visit, or you sleep alone and like room for a dog or cat at your feet.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner both sprawl, or either of you is tall and wants more length. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which gives 75cm each and is 10cm longer; allow at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

How much space does each person get on the Ortho Bespoke Silver 1600 UK double?
Each of you gets 67.5cm of width on the UK double. That suits couples who sleep fairly close together. If you both like to spread out, the UK king gives 75cm each, which is 7.5cm more per person, though it also needs a larger room.
Will I feel my partner move on a UK double Sleepeezee Ortho Bespoke Silver 1600?
You'll feel less than on an open coil mattress. On a UK double you lie closer together than on larger sizes, so the 1,600 springs moving independently of each other help keep a partner's shifting on their own side. On a firm mattress like this, some movement will still come through, particularly when someone gets in or out.
What room size suits the Sleepeezee Ortho Bespoke Silver 1600 in a UK double?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for this mattress in a UK double, with around 3m x 3m giving comfortable space around the bed. That covers most master bedrooms and many second bedrooms, which is a big part of why couples choose the UK double over the UK king.
Is the UK double Ortho Bespoke Silver 1600 easy to turn on your own?
Sleepeezee doesn't publish a weight for this mattress, so check the brand's own guidance before buying. At 26cm deep with natural fillings it's substantial, but a UK double is narrower than the UK king or UK super king, so turning it is a slightly more manageable job, ideally with two people.
Should a couple go for the Ortho Bespoke Silver 1600 in a UK double or size down to a UK small double?
For two adults sharing every night, the UK double is the better choice. It's 15cm wider than the UK small double at the same length. The UK small double suits a solo sleeper or a very tight room, and we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for it.
