Layer Details
- Damask Cover. A breathable cover made from Belgian damask fabric. Breathability here means air can move through the surface, which helps the mattress feel less stuffy on warm nights.
- Polyester and Wool Blend. A comfort layer blending polyester with wool, which is naturally temperature regulating. In practice that means it helps even out warmth rather than trapping heat against you.
- Soft White Fibres. Fibre fillings made from 100% polyester, chosen for recovery and durability. They spring back into shape after use, which helps the surface resist dips over time.
- 1000 Pocket Springs. Up to 1000 springs, each pocketed so it works completely independently of the others. This gives targeted support and reduces the ripple you feel when a partner moves.

- Room for two without filling the room: At 135 x 190cm, the UK double usually leaves space for bedside tables on both sides, provided your bedroom is at least the 2.6m x 2.8m we suggest.
- Less disturbance from a restless partner: Each spring sits in its own pocket and moves independently, which means a partner turning over on their half is less likely to send a ripple across to yours.
- No roll towards the middle: Because the springs respond to each body separately, a heavier partner is less likely to create a slope that tips a lighter partner towards them during the night.
- A slightly cooler shared bed: The wool blend comfort layer helps even out warmth, a useful help when two people share the heat of a UK double on a close summer night.
- Simple to dress: Double sheets are stocked almost everywhere, and a 200 x 200cm double duvet gives enough overhang for two people to share it without a nightly tug of war.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a partner in a typical UK bedroom and want firm support without the frame dominating the space, or you're furnishing a spare room where visiting couples need a proper shared bed.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner both sprawl or have broad shoulders, and your bedroom can take a bigger frame. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which gives 75cm each and needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

Will a Sleepeezee Ortho Firm 1000 UK double fit in my bedroom?
The UK double measures 135 x 190cm, or 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in. We suggest a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m, although around 3m x 3m is more comfortable if you want bedside tables on both sides plus a wardrobe or chest of drawers you can open without shuffling round the bed.
Is the Ortho Firm 1000 in a UK double good for couples of different weights?
It suits them well. The pocket springs work independently, so each of you is supported on your own 67.5cm half rather than drifting towards the heavier sleeper. Yes, the firm feel may seem unyielding to a lightweight side sleeper, but a heavier partner is less likely to sink or create a dip in the middle.
Sleepeezee Ortho Firm 1000 double or king for two people?
The UK king is 15cm wider and 10cm longer than the UK double, giving 75cm each against 67.5cm. That extra 7.5cm per person matters if either of you is tall or restless. The UK king needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m, so in a smaller bedroom the UK double is the more practical choice.
Is the UK double Ortho Firm 1000 a good guest room mattress?
For a spare room that hosts visiting couples, a UK double is the size most guests expect, and double bedding is easy to find. The firm feel suits guests who sleep on their back or front, though lighter guests who prefer a softer surface may find it a little firm for an occasional stay.
Should a single sleeper choose the Ortho Firm 1000 in a UK double or UK small double?
If you sleep alone and share the bed with a dog or cat, the UK double gives you 15cm more width than the UK small double at the same length. If your second bedroom or first flat is tight, the UK small double would suit you better, and we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for it.
