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
- Room to spread out alone: At 120 x 190cm (4ft x 6ft 3in), it's 30cm wider than a UK single, so you can turn over or throw an arm out without meeting the edge.
- Fits a compact bedroom: We suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for a UK small double, which keeps more clear floor around the bed than a UK double would allow.
- Usable right to the sides: The high-density foam border keeps the perimeter stable, which helps on a 120cm bed where you'll often sit or sleep close to the edge.
- Help if you wake up warm: The gel layer is designed to dissipate excess body heat, a useful trait if a snug, small bedroom tends to leave you too warm overnight.
- Calmer for the odd shared night: Each pocket spring moves on its own, so when a visiting couple share it, one person shifting position is less likely to unsettle the other.
- Easy to make up: Small double fitted sheets go straight on, and a standard double duvet covers it without hanging short at the sides.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and have outgrown a single, your bedroom can't spare the floor a UK double would take, or the bed sleeps one person most nights with a couple staying over now and then.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed every night, as two adults will feel squeezed. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each and needs a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

FAQ's
Can two adults sleep on a UK small double Oura Gel Pocket 1000?
For a weekend, yes. Guests staying a night or two will manage, and the independent springs help keep one person's movement from disturbing the other. For nightly sharing, we'd recommend the UK double, which is 15cm wider and gives 67.5cm each.
What size bedroom do I need for a UK small double mattress?
We suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for a UK small double. If your room is a little bigger and you'd like the extra width, the UK double needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m by our guidance. Measure with the door swing and any wardrobe doors open.
Is a UK small double big enough for a teenager?
Usually, yes. It's 30cm wider than a UK single and the same length, so a teenager gains plenty of width without losing much floor space. If they're already very tall, the UK king is 10cm longer, although it needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m by our guidance.
What sheets and duvet fit the Oura Gel Pocket 1000 small double?
Use small double fitted sheets, not double ones, which will slide around. A standard double duvet covers it well. The mattress is 29cm deep, so check that the fitted sheet's pocket depth is generous enough to tuck under comfortably.
Will a UK small double fit in a loft conversion bedroom?
Often, yes, because its 4ft x 6ft 3in footprint leaves more space beside the bed under a sloping ceiling than a UK double does. Check headroom where you'll actually climb in. Measure the stairs and landing turn too, then compare the retailers listed on this page.
