Layer Details
Stretch knit micro-quilted cover
A soft-touch, micro-quilted knitted cover that adds plushness and a breathable surface. It gives the mattress a gentle feel when you first lie down.
Cooling gel layer
A gel-infused layer designed to dissipate excess body heat. It helps you stay at a comfortable temperature through the night.
Pocket spring unit
Rows of small-diameter pocket springs, each wrapped in its own cloth sleeve and not attached to the springs around it. Each spring can move on its own, so the mattress responds to your body where you lie.
Foam encapsulated border
A high-density foam border around the perimeter springs. It gives edge-to-edge support, so the sides feel more stable when you sit or sleep near them.

Key benefits
- More space between you: The UK king is 15cm wider than the UK double, which means a little more room to turn over before you meet your partner's side of the bed.
- Fewer shared wake-ups: Each pocket spring moves on its own, so when an early riser gets up hours ahead, the movement stays largely on their half of the bed.
- Length for taller sleepers: At 200cm, or 6ft 6in, the UK king lets a partner over six foot stretch out without their feet ending up past the edge.
- Usable to the very edge: The foam-encapsulated border firms up the perimeter, which means both sleepers can use the full width instead of drifting towards the middle.
- Cooler for two bodies: Two people generate more warmth, and the gel layer is designed to draw excess heat away so neither of you wakes up overheated.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and keep nudging each other on a UK double, one of you gets up long before the other, or a partner over six foot is tired of feet hanging off the end.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom measures under 2.7m x 2.9m once wardrobes are in, as many new build master bedrooms do. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

FAQ's
Is the Oura Gel Pocket 1000 UK king long enough for someone over six foot?
Yes, for most tall sleepers. The UK king is 200cm long, which is 6ft 6in, and 10cm longer than the UK double. That extra length means a six-foot partner can lie flat with their pillow in place and still have room at the foot end, which is often the real reason couples move up from a UK double.
How much space does each person get on a UK king Oura Gel Pocket 1000?
Two people sharing get 75cm each. That is 7.5cm more each than the UK double gives, and 15cm less each than the UK super king. Because the pocket springs work independently and the foam border supports the edges, you can use your full 75cm without rolling towards the middle.
What size bedroom do I need for a UK king Oura Gel Pocket 1000?
We suggest allowing at least 2.7m x 2.9m, with 3.2m x 3.2m giving comfortable space to walk around. New build master bedrooms can feel tighter than their floor plan suggests once wardrobes and bedside tables go in, so measure the room as it will actually be furnished.
Should I get the Oura Gel Pocket 1000 in a UK king or UK super king?
The UK super king is 30cm wider and gives 90cm each for two, but we suggest at least 3m x 2.9m of room. If your bedroom fits it and one of you sprawls, size up. If space is tighter, the UK king still gives 75cm each at the same 200cm length.
What bedding fits the Oura Gel Pocket 1000 in a king size?
Standard UK king sheets fit the 150 x 200cm surface, and a 230 x 220cm king duvet covers two sleepers comfortably. The mattress is 29cm deep, so check the pocket depth on any fitted sheet before buying to make sure it holds firmly at the corners.
