- Fits a typical bedroom: We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, so many second bedrooms and first flats can take the bed alongside a wardrobe and a chest of drawers.
- Room for two who sleep close: Each sleeper gets 67.5cm of width, which is comfortable for couples who like to be near each other, although restless sleepers may miss the extra 7.5cm each a UK king gives.
- Springs that suit sharing: The springs are individually pocketed and move independently, which means one partner turning over should disturb the other a little less on a shared surface.
- Simple to dress: Double sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet fit, and double bedding is sold almost everywhere, which helps if you are furnishing a whole home on a stretched budget.
- The compact option in this range: The UK double is the smallest size of this mattress, so it is the sensible choice when a UK king would crowd your bedroom.
This size suits you if...
You share a bed with a partner in a typical UK bedroom and still want bedside tables on both sides, or you sleep alone and like enough width for a dog or cat to claim a corner without pushing you to the edge.
Consider another size if...
One of you is tall, or you regularly disturb each other at night. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which is 10cm longer and allows 75cm each; we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for it.

Will a Mayfair Bamboo Pocket 1500 UK double fit with bedside tables on both sides?
In most rooms, yes. We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, with around 3m x 3m giving a comfortable amount of space. At the minimum, bedside tables will fit but walkways get tight, so measure from the wall to any wardrobe doors before you order.
How much room does each person get on the Mayfair Bamboo Pocket 1500 UK double?
Two people sharing get 67.5cm each. That suits couples who sleep close together. If either of you sprawls, the UK king gives 75cm each, which is 7.5cm more per person, and the UK super king gives 90cm each.
Is the Mayfair Bamboo Pocket 1500 UK double long enough for a tall person?
The UK double is 190cm long, or 6ft 3in. Taller sleepers, or anyone who likes their feet fully on the mattress with a pillow behind them, may find it slightly short. The UK king and UK super king are both 10cm longer than the UK double.
Is a UK double Mayfair Bamboo Pocket 1500 a good choice for a guest room?
It suits a guest room where visiting couples stay for a few nights, since 67.5cm each is fine for short stays and double bedding is easy to find. The UK double is also the smallest size this mattress comes in, so it takes up the least space in a spare room.
Can one person and a pet share a double pocket sprung mattress comfortably?
At 135cm wide, a UK double leaves a solo sleeper plenty of room with a dog or cat curled at the foot or side. Pocket springs move independently, which means a pet jumping up or resettling should send less movement across to you than on an open coil mattress.
