- More room each: At 150cm across, the UK king gives each of you 7.5cm more than a UK double, which means a little less elbow contact through the night.
- Length for taller sleepers: The 200cm length, or 6ft 6in, adds 10cm over a UK double, which means a taller partner can stretch out without their feet hanging off the end.
- Space between different body clocks: If one of you gets up hours before the other, the extra width puts slightly more distance between you, although SleepSoul doesn't say how well the springs limit movement.
- A smaller footprint than a super king: We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king, against 3m x 2.9m for the UK super king, so it suits bedrooms that can't take the bigger bed.
- Easier to get upstairs: The UK king arrives rolled and compressed, so it is far easier to carry up a tight staircase than a flat mattress measuring 150 x 200cm.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and a UK double has started to feel cramped, one of you is six foot or taller and would like the extra length, or you keep different hours and want a little more distance between you.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than our suggested minimum of 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king. We'd recommend the UK double instead, for which we suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

Is the SleepSoul Space Memory Pocket 2000 UK king long enough for a tall person?
The UK king is 200cm long, or 6ft 6in, which is 10cm longer than a UK double. If one of you is six foot or more, that extra length is often the bigger gain from sizing up, more so than the width.
How much extra space do couples get on a UK king SleepSoul pillowtop compared with a double?
The UK king gives each of you 75cm of width. A UK double gives 67.5cm each, so you gain 7.5cm per person. That sounds small, but it adds up across a night of turning over and shifting position.
Should we choose the UK king or UK super king SleepSoul Space Memory Pocket 2000?
The UK super king gives 90cm each, which is 15cm more per person than the UK king. It also needs more floor space: we suggest at least 3m x 2.9m for the UK super king, against 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king. If your room is tight, the UK king is the safer fit.
Will a UK king mattress fit in a new build master bedroom?
Often, yes, but measure after the wardrobes are in, because fitted furniture eats into floor space. We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king, and 3.2m x 3.2m if you want room to walk round both sides comfortably.
Does a king size help if my partner gets up much earlier than me?
The extra 7.5cm each over a UK double puts you slightly further apart, which can help when one of you is up hours before the other. SleepSoul doesn't publish how well this mattress limits movement, so look through owner comments on the retailer listing before you commit.
