- Space for bedside tables: We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, and around 3m x 3m usually leaves a bedside table on each side with room to walk past.
- Calmer shared nights: Each pocket spring moves on its own, which means one person getting up for work early is less likely to wake the other.
- Bedding is easy to find: Double sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet are sold almost everywhere, a real help if you're kitting out a whole home at once.
- A sensible guest room choice: Visiting couples get a proper shared bed, while the room avoids the larger footprint of a UK king, for which we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m.
- Easy to check against older frames: In imperial the UK double measures 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in, the figure to hold up against an inherited or older bed frame before ordering.
This size suits you if...
You share a bed with a partner in a standard-sized bedroom and still need floor space for a wardrobe and drawers, or you're furnishing a guest room for visiting couples and want a proper shared bed that doesn't take over the room.
Consider another size if...
One or both of you likes to sprawl, or either of you finds 190cm too short. We'd recommend the UK king instead, and suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for it.

How much space does each person get on a Spring King Wool Ortho Pocket UK double?
Two people sharing the UK double get 67.5cm each. That suits most couples who sleep fairly still, though it is a little snug if either of you spreads out. The UK king gives 75cm each, so moving up adds 7.5cm per person.
Will a UK double fit in my bedroom with bedside tables on both sides?
We suggest a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double. At that minimum the fit is workable but tight. Around 3m x 3m is the more comfortable norm, giving room for a table either side and space to open wardrobe doors.
Spring King Wool Ortho Pocket UK double size in feet?
The UK double measures 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in, or 135 x 190cm. Measure your frame's internal base rather than its outer edge, as a headboard or raised sides can reduce the usable space.
Is the Spring King UK double long enough for a tall sleeper?
The UK double is 190cm long, the same as the UK single. If your feet already reach the end of your current bed, the UK king and UK super king are both 10cm longer, which is the more comfortable option for taller sleepers.
Does the Spring King Wool Ortho Pocket come in a UK small double?
No. This mattress is listed in UK single, UK double, UK king and UK super king only. The UK double is 15cm wider than a UK small double and the same length, so check that your frame takes the full 135cm width.
