Layer Details
Surface upholstery
Blended British fleece wool and cotton sit directly under the ticking, which means the surface feels naturally soft rather than synthetic. Wool also helps regulate temperature through the night.
Comfort layer
A layer of bonded wool provides consistent comfort throughout the night. Bonding the wool helps it keep its shape rather than compressing unevenly over time.
Spring system
A hand-nested calico pocket spring unit with 1,254 springs in the 150 x 200cm size, arranged in a single layer. Each spring works independently, which means better contouring and less motion transfer to a partner.

Key benefits
- Sized for real rooms: At 135 x 190cm, the UK double sits comfortably in a typical second bedroom or first flat, leaving space to open a wardrobe door without climbing over the bed.
- Quieter shared nights: Each spring is sewn into its own calico pocket, which means a partner turning over at 3am is less likely to jolt you awake on a narrower shared surface.
- Cooler for two: Two bodies in a UK double generate plenty of heat, and the wool and cotton upholstery lets that warmth escape more readily than a foam surface would.
- Bedding is easy to find: Double sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet are stocked almost everywhere, so dressing this mattress won't mean hunting for specialist sizes.
- Generous for one: If you sleep alone with a dog or cat who claims the bottom corner, a UK double gives you both room without committing half the bedroom to the bed.
This size suits you if...
You share a bed with a partner in a standard UK bedroom and want to keep space for furniture, or you sleep alone and like room to stretch out, with a pet taking its usual corner.
Consider another size if...
You're tall enough that your feet already reach the end of a 190cm bed, or your bedroom falls under our suggested minimum of 2.6m x 2.8m. This listing only offers the UK double.

FAQ's
Is the Vispring Elite double wide enough for two people?
A UK double gives 67.5cm each for two sharing, which suits most couples of average build. That is 7.5cm less each than a UK king offers. The independent pocket springs help here, because one person moving has less effect on the other, although broad-shouldered couples may still feel a little close.
Will a Vispring Elite UK double fit in my bedroom with bedside tables?
We suggest allowing at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, with around 3m x 3m being the comfortable norm. At the smaller end you'll fit the bed and a slim table either side, but a wardrobe and drawers as well will feel tight. Measure your walkway space before you commit.
What is a Vispring Elite double in feet and inches?
The UK double measures 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in, which is 135 x 190cm. That's the traditional British double, so it will fit any standard double bed frame or divan base sold in the UK.
What fitted sheet size do I need for the Vispring Elite double?
Buy UK double fitted sheets with deep pockets. The mattress is 21cm deep, but its natural doming of around 6cm, give or take 2cm, brings the overall height to roughly 27cm, so shallow sheets may ping off the corners. A 200 x 200cm double duvet completes the set.
How much shorter is the Vispring Elite double than a king?
A UK double is 10cm shorter than a UK king and 15cm narrower. For most couples the length is fine, but if either of you is tall and likes to sleep stretched out, those 10cm are the bit you'd notice first.
