Layer Details
- Sleep Surface. A Belgian damask viscose cover that feels silky against the skin and is highly breathable. That breathability helps create a fresher sleeping environment through the night.
- Comfort Fillings. Silk, cotton, cashmere and sustainably sourced British wool make up the plump comfort layer. Wool in particular is a natural temperature regulator, so this layer adds softness without trapping heat.
- Support System. 2000 pocket springs, each mounted in its own separate fabric pocket. Because they work completely independently, you get targeted support and less disturbance from a partner's movement.

- Room to sprawl on your own: At 120 x 190cm it is 30cm wider than the UK single, which means you can roll over and spread out without meeting the edge.
- Kinder to a tight floor plan: Being 15cm narrower than the UK double leaves a little more floor beside the bed, which can decide whether a door or wardrobe still opens freely.
- Calm when someone stays over: The 2000 pocket springs each move on their own, so when a couple shares for a night, one person turning over sends less movement across to the other.
- Firm support without a bigger footprint: Back sleepers get steady spinal support from the firm sprung base, which suits a teenager moving up from a UK single into a room that cannot give up floor space.
- Easy to dress and frame: At 4ft x 6ft 3in it is a standard UK size, so you won't struggle to find a bed frame or fitted sheets to match.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and want space to stretch out, your bedroom is too compact for a UK double, or the bed is mostly for guests and couples only stay the occasional night.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed with a partner every night. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each; we suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for it.

Is the Ortho Brilliance 2000 small double good for a teenager outgrowing a single?
It is a sensible step up. The UK small double is 30cm wider than the UK single but the same length, so it gives a growing teenager more room to turn over while taking only a little more floor. The firm build suits back sleepers, although a lightweight teenager who sleeps on their side may find it a little unyielding.
What size bedroom do I need for a Tuft & Springs small double?
We suggest allowing at least 2.4m x 2.8m for a UK small double. That leaves space to walk around the bed and open drawers. If your room is smaller, measure the door swing and any wardrobe carefully before you order, as the bed frame usually adds a little to the 120 x 190cm mattress footprint.
Is a firm small double mattress a good choice for a guest room?
For most guests, yes. Solo visitors get plenty of room, and couples staying a night or two benefit from the independent pocket springs, which reduce disturbance when one person moves. The one flaw is firmness: guests who prefer a soft, sink-in feel, or lightweight side sleepers, may find it firmer than they are used to.
Will a small double fit a loft conversion better than a double?
Often, yes. A UK small double is 15cm narrower than a UK double, which can free up usable floor on the side where a sloping ceiling cuts your standing room. The length is the same as a UK double, so measure the full-height area of your loft room rather than the floor alone.
Should one person choose the small double or single Ortho Brilliance 2000?
If your room allows it, the UK small double gives a solo adult noticeably more space, being 30cm wider than the UK single at the same length. Choose the UK single if floor space is very tight: we suggest at least 2.1m x 2.8m for it, against 2.4m x 2.8m for the UK small double.
