Fillings
High-density polyester layers sit at the top, which means a resilient comfort surface that resists dipping over time. It won't feel plush, but on a firm mattress that's rather the point.
Springs
Beneath the fillings sit 1,400 individually pocketed springs in the king size, each responding independently to your body shape and weight. In practice that means targeted support and less motion carrying across the bed to a partner.

Key benefits
- Room to sprawl alone: The UK small double is 30cm wider than the UK single, which means a back or front sleeper can stretch out on a firm surface without an arm hanging off the edge.
- Same length as a single: At 190cm long, the UK small double matches the UK single, so a teenager moving up gains width without the bed pushing further into the room.
- Fits tighter rooms: Being 15cm narrower than the UK double can leave enough clearance for a door to swing or for you to stand beside the bed under a sloping loft ceiling.
- Easy frames and bedding: At 4ft x 6ft 3in, the UK small double is a standard British size, which means matching bed frames and fitted sheets are straightforward to find.
- Firm feel for guest stays: Couples visiting for a night or two get pocket springs that move independently, so one guest turning over disturbs the other a little less.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone on your back or front and want more width than a single without losing much floor space, or you're furnishing a guest room or loft conversion where a couple stays occasionally but nobody shares the bed nightly.
Consider another size if...
You and a partner share the bed every night. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each for two sharing; allow at least 2.6m x 2.8m for it.

FAQ's
What size room do I need for the Sleepeezee Ortho Legacy 1400 small double?
We suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for the UK small double. That leaves space to get in and out comfortably and to turn a 30cm deep, double-sided mattress when it's due. If your room is tighter, measure door swing and any sloping ceiling before committing.
Is the Ortho Legacy 1400 small double good for a teenager who has outgrown a single?
It can be, provided they like a firm feel. The UK small double is 30cm wider than the UK single but the same length, so it takes a little more width from the room and no extra length. Lightweight side sleepers may find the firm surface presses on the shoulder and hip.
Small double or double Ortho Legacy 1400 for a guest room?
If couples only stay occasionally, the UK small double is usually enough and is 15cm narrower, which helps in a compact room. If guests share regularly, the UK double gives 67.5cm each; we suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for that size.
Does the Sleepeezee Ortho Legacy 1400 small double fit a 4ft bed frame?
Yes. The UK small double measures 120 x 190cm, which is 4ft x 6ft 3in, the standard UK small double frame size. Check your frame's internal measurements, as some bedsteads run slightly snug.
Is the Ortho Legacy 1400 small double long enough for a tall person?
At 190cm, the UK small double is the same length as the UK single and UK double. If your feet already touch the end of a standard bed, the UK king is 10cm longer, though it needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m of floor space.
