Layer Details
- Cover. A QuickRefresh™ cover with SmartCool™ technology, which unzips all the way round so you can remove it easily. It washes at 60°C, which means allergens and sweat can actually be dealt with rather than just aired out.
- Filling. TEMPUR® Advanced Material, a slow-response foam that softens with your body heat and contours closely to you. You'll feel cradled rather than bounced, with very little motion transferring across the bed.

- 75cm each for two people sharing: The UK king gives 75cm each for two people sharing, which means you can change position without negotiating for space.
- Movement stays on one side: Slow-response foam absorbs motion rather than bouncing it across, so a partner leaving for an early shift is far less likely to wake you.
- 200cm of length for taller sleepers: At 200cm long, the UK king suits anyone approaching or over six foot whose feet currently hang off a standard 190cm bed.
- A washable cover at a shared-bed size: The QuickRefresh™ cover unzips fully and washes at 60°C, useful when two people, and perhaps a dog, use the bed every night.
- Wide without dominating the room: It is 15cm wider than a UK double yet needs less floor space than a UK super king, so most master bedrooms can take it.
This size suits you if...
You and your partner keep different hours and want movement on one side to stay there, you've outgrown a UK double and want genuinely more room each, or one of you is tall enough that the 200cm length is the real draw. It also suits households where the dog has claimed a corner and a cover that washes at 60°C sounds appealing.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than the 2.7m x 2.9m we suggest as a minimum for a UK king, or you sleep alone. For solo sleepers, the UK double gives ample space and asks less of the room; we'd recommend it instead.

Is the Tempur Pro Plus SmartCool in a UK king big enough for a couple?
Yes, comfortably for most. At 150cm wide it gives 75cm each for two people sharing, and the slow-response foam keeps one person's movement from travelling across the bed. If you both sprawl, or a dog routinely joins you, the UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king and may suit you better.
What room size do I need for a UK king Tempur Pro Plus SmartCool?
We suggest a minimum of 2.7m x 2.9m, with around 3.2m x 3.2m feeling comfortable. That's our guidance, not Tempur's. Measure with wardrobes and door swings in mind: new build master bedrooms in particular can feel tighter than the floor plan suggests once furniture is in place.
Is the UK king long enough for someone over six foot?
At 200cm, or 6ft 6in, it should be. That extra length over a standard 190cm bed is often the real reason taller sleepers upgrade, more so than width. Tempur also makes long variants of this mattress, but for most people over six foot the UK king's 200cm is enough.
Will my partner getting up early wake me on this mattress?
Less than on most. TEMPUR® Advanced Material responds slowly and absorbs movement rather than bouncing it, and the 150cm width puts real distance between you. Across a UK king, one person sitting up or climbing out at 5am creates very little disturbance on the other side.
