- More room each: Two people sharing get 75cm each, which is 7.5cm more per person than a UK double, enough to stop elbows meeting halfway through the night.
- Extra length for taller partners: At 200cm long, the UK king adds 10cm over a UK double, so a partner over six foot can stretch out without their feet reaching the edge.
- A little more distance from a restless partner: The extra 15cm of width over a UK double puts slightly more space between you, which helps when one partner turns over or gets up early.
- Space without a super king room: We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for this size, a more achievable footprint than the 3m x 2.9m we recommend for a UK super king.
- Easier to get upstairs: As a mattress in a box it arrives compressed and rolled, which means a king size is far easier to carry up a tight staircase than a flat one.
This size suits you if...
You share a UK double and keep bumping into each other, one of you is over six foot and has run out of length, or your alarms are hours apart and you'd like a little more distance when the early riser slips out of bed.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m once wardrobes are in. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

Is the SleepSoul Heaven Gel Pocket 2000 UK king long enough if you're over 6ft?
The UK king is 200cm long, or 6ft 6in, which is 10cm longer than the UK double. For a partner around or just over six foot, that extra length is often the real reason to upgrade, because it lets you lie straight with a pillow at the top and room to spare at your feet.
How much space does each person get on a SleepSoul Heaven Gel Pocket 2000 king size?
Two people sharing get 75cm each. The UK double gives 67.5cm each, so the UK king adds 7.5cm per person. That sounds modest, but it is the difference between touching and not touching when you both lie on your backs.
Should a couple choose the UK king or UK super king SleepSoul Heaven Gel Pocket 2000?
The UK super king gives 90cm each, 15cm more per person than the UK king, at the same length. It needs more floor, though: we suggest at least 3m x 2.9m, against 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king. If your room clears the larger figure and you still disturb each other, size up.
Will a UK king mattress fit a new build master bedroom?
Often, but measure after the wardrobes and bedside tables are in, not from the floor plan. New build bedrooms can feel tighter than their listed size once furniture is placed. We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king so you can still walk round both sides and open drawers.
Will a king size SleepSoul Heaven Gel Pocket 2000 stop me feeling my partner move?
SleepSoul doesn't publish detail on how well this mattress isolates movement, so check the brand's own guidance. What the UK king does reliably give you is 15cm more width than a UK double, and that extra distance helps if one of you gets up hours before the other.
