Layer Details
- Surface upholstery. Blended British fleece wool and cotton sit directly beneath the ticking, which means a naturally soft, breathable sleeping surface. Wool also helps manage moisture and temperature through the night.
- Comfort layer. A layer of bonded wool provides consistent comfort throughout the night. Bonding the wool helps the filling keep its shape rather than settling unevenly.
- Spring system. A hand-nested calico pocket spring unit with 1,254 vanadium steel springs in a single layer, a count specified for the King size. Each spring works independently, which means balanced support and less disturbance when a partner moves.

- Sized for an ordinary bedroom: We suggest a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m, which means most main bedrooms can take the UK double with space left for a wardrobe and drawers.
- Less disturbance when sharing: Each spring sits in its own calico pocket and moves independently, so when a partner rolls over you are a little less likely to feel it on your side.
- Cooler for two in close quarters: The wool and cotton surface breathes and manages moisture, which helps when two people share 67.5cm each and body heat builds up between you.
- A proper bed for visiting couples: In a guest room, the UK double gives friends or family a genuine shared bed with natural fillings without letting it take over the whole floor.
- Room left for bedside tables: At 135cm wide, the UK double usually leaves enough clearance for a bedside table on each side, so neither of you is stuck climbing over the other.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a partner and your bedroom sits around our suggested 2.6m x 2.8m minimum, or you're furnishing a guest room for visiting couples and want wool fillings and pocket springs in a footprint smaller than a UK king.
Consider another size if...
One of you is tall, or you both like to spread out and want more than 67.5cm each. We'd recommend the UK king instead, provided your room allows at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

How much space does each person get on a Vispring Elite UK double?
Two people sharing get 67.5cm each on the UK double. That is fine for couples who sleep close. The independent pocket springs mean one partner's movement travels less across the bed, which helps at that width. If you both sprawl, the UK king gives 7.5cm more each.
Will a Vispring Elite UK double fit in my bedroom with bedside tables?
We suggest a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, with around 3m x 3m being the comfortable norm. At that larger size you should have space for a bedside table on both sides and a clear path round the bed. Measure your walking gaps before you order.
What are the Vispring Elite UK double dimensions in feet?
The Vispring Elite UK double measures 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in, which is 135 x 190cm. The mattress is 21cm deep, plus around 6cm of doming from the wool fillings, so check that your fitted sheets have deep enough pockets.
Vispring Elite UK double or UK king for a couple?
The UK king is 15cm wider and 10cm longer than the UK double, and gives each of you 7.5cm more space. It needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m, against 2.6m x 2.8m for the UK double. If your room is tight, the UK double keeps the bedroom usable.
Is the Vispring Elite UK double long enough for a tall sleeper?
The UK double is 190cm long, the traditional British length. Most adults fit comfortably. If either of you is tall enough for your feet to reach the end, the UK king adds 10cm of length, which matters more over a full night than the extra width does.
