Layer Details
- Cover. A cotton cover, which means a breathable, natural surface next to your bedding rather than a synthetic one.
- Fillings. High-density polyester layers, which give a resilient comfort layer that holds its shape well over time. Expect cushioning rather than the deep sink of memory foam.
- Spring system. 950 individually pocketed springs in the king size, each responding independently to your body's shape and weight. That means targeted support and less motion transfer across the bed.

- Leaves room for everything else: At 90cm wide, the UK single leaves space for a desk and wardrobe in a small bedroom, which means the bed doesn't have to take over the room.
- Firm support for one: The pocket springs respond to one body's shape and weight, which suits a solo adult or older teen who sleeps better on a properly firm surface.
- Easier to turn in this size: This is a double-sided mattress that needs turning seasonally, and a UK single is far more manageable for one person to flip than the larger sizes.
- Fits a narrow floor plan: In a loft conversion where only the space beneath the slope is free, the slim UK single footprint is often the only layout that works.
- Two can sit side by side: A pair of UK singles makes a flexible guest room, letting you host friends who won't share a bed, or siblings who need separate beds and a walkway between them.
- Suits allergy-conscious sleepers: The hypoallergenic certification and cotton cover are useful for a child or guest whose allergies disturb their sleep.
This size suits you if...
You're a solo adult or older teenager who prefers a genuinely firm mattress, and your room is compact enough that a wider bed would crowd it. It also suits you if you're furnishing a guest room with two separate beds, or you want a mattress you can turn each season without asking for help.
Consider another size if...
You're a lightweight side sleeper, or you want more room to spread out alone. The UK small double would suit you better: it is 30cm wider, and we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m.

Will the Sleepeezee Ortho Legacy 950 single fit a bunk bed or mid sleeper?
It depends on the frame. At 30cm deep, this mattress is thicker than many raised frames allow, and a deep mattress can bring the sleeper above the safety rail. Check the frame maker's maximum mattress depth before buying. On a standard divan or low bedstead, the 90 x 190cm UK single fits as normal.
Is a firm single mattress like the Ortho Legacy 950 good for a child?
It can be, although younger, lighter children may find it a little too firm, especially if they sleep on their side, because there is less body weight pressing into the springs. An older teenager or a heavier child who sleeps on their back or front is more likely to find the firmness comfortable.
Is the Ortho Legacy 950 UK single easy to turn?
Easier than the larger sizes, yes. It is double-sided and needs turning seasonally, and a 90cm wide mattress is far more manageable for one adult to flip than a UK king or UK super king. Sleepeezee doesn't publish a weight for the UK single, so allow for a substantial 30cm deep mattress.
What size bedroom do I need for a Sleepeezee Ortho Legacy 950 single?
We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space for a UK single. That gives you room to walk around the bed and open drawers or a wardrobe. In a child's room or study, it usually leaves space for a desk alongside.
Should I get the Ortho Legacy 950 in a UK single or UK small double for a guest room?
Choose the UK single if you want two separate beds or need to keep floor space for a desk. The UK small double is 30cm wider and the same length, which suits one guest who likes more room, and we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for it.
