Layer Details
Bamboo-infused stretch knit cover
A stretch knit fabric infused with bamboo covers the sleep surface. It's the first layer you feel, sitting over the memory foam below.
Memory foam
A 45mm layer of memory foam sits beneath the cover. It moulds to your shape, which helps ease pressure where your body presses into the mattress.
Pocket springs
Individually sleeved pocket springs form the core, with a wire edge border round the outside. Each spring moves on its own, so the support follows your body.

Key benefits
- More room each than a double: You each get 7.5cm more width than on a UK double, which means fewer elbows and knees crossing the middle of the bed.
- Length for taller sleepers: At 200cm long, or 6ft 6in, the UK king is 10cm longer than a UK double, so feet are less likely to hang over the end.
- Quieter nights on different schedules: Independent pocket springs combined with the extra width should keep an early riser's movements from carrying across to the partner still asleep.
- Space without super king room demands: We suggest a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m, a little less than the 3m x 2.9m we'd allow for the UK super king.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and wake when your partner gets up hours before you, or one of you is over six foot and has spent years with feet pressed against a footboard. It also fits a pregnancy, when an extra pillow or two needs somewhere to go.
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, which we suggest for rooms of at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

FAQ's
Is the Mayfair Bamboo Pocket 1500 UK king big enough for two adults?
Yes, for most couples. The UK king gives 75cm each for two people sharing, which is 7.5cm more each than the UK double. If you both sleep in a starfish position, or a dog joins you most nights, you may still find the UK super king's 90cm each more comfortable.
Is a king size Mayfair Bamboo Pocket 1500 long enough for someone over 6ft?
The UK king is 200cm long, which is 6ft 6in, and 10cm longer than the UK double. That extra length gives a taller sleeper more room at the head and foot. The UK super king is the same length, so sizing up beyond the UK king adds width, with no extra length.
Mayfair Bamboo Pocket 1500 king or super king: which should I choose?
Both are 200cm long, so the difference is width: the UK king is 30cm narrower, giving 15cm less each. We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king and 3m x 2.9m for the UK super king. If your room fits the UK king comfortably but the super king would feel tight, stay with the UK king.
Will a king Mayfair Bamboo Pocket 1500 stop me waking when my partner gets up early?
It should help, though no mattress removes movement entirely. Pocket springs move independently, so a shift on one side travels less across the bed. The UK king adds a little distance too, with 7.5cm more width each than the UK double, which gives the light sleeper a slightly bigger buffer.
What size bed frame fits the Sweet Dreams Mayfair Bamboo Pocket 1500 king?
You need a UK king frame, built for a 150 x 200cm mattress, which is 5ft x 6ft 6in. A European or American king frame is a different size, so check the frame's stated mattress dimensions before buying.
