Layer Details
- Upholstery. Every filling is natural: British fleece wool, hand-teased horsetail blended with real Shetland wool, silk and mohair, plus blended Shetland wool and cotton, all encased in high-quality ticking. In practice that means a breathable, temperature-regulating surface that softens with body shape rather than trapping heat the way foam can.
- Springs. Two layers of hand-nested calico pocket springs made from vanadium steel, with 2,520 springs in the 150 x 200cm size. Nesting the springs by hand in calico pockets lets each one move independently, which you feel as support that follows your shape closely.
- Borders. The borders are upholstered with protective coir and wool and finished with four rows of hand side-stitching. This stiffens the edges, so the mattress holds its shape over time and supports you when you sit or sleep near the side.

- Fits a typical bedroom: At 135 x 190cm, a UK double usually leaves space for bedside tables on both sides in rooms where a UK king would crowd the walls.
- Less disturbance when sharing: The springs sit in individual calico pockets, which means your partner's movement stays mostly on their side even with 67.5cm each.
- Usable right to the edge: Four rows of hand side-stitching keep the border supportive, so both of you can use the full width of a UK double without rolling off.
- Cooler for two: Wool and horsetail fillings let heat escape, which helps because two people on a UK double can run slightly warmer than on a bigger bed.
- A proper bed for visiting couples: In a second bedroom, a UK double gives guests a genuine shared bed while still leaving floor for a wardrobe or chest of drawers.
This size suits you if...
You share your bed with a partner in a standard UK bedroom and want to keep room for bedside tables, or you're furnishing a guest room where visiting couples need a comfortable soft bed that doesn't swallow the floor space.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner want more room each, or one of you is tall. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which gives 75cm each and is 10cm longer; allow at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

How much space does each person get on a Vispring Sublime Superb double?
A UK double gives 67.5cm each for two people sharing. That suits most couples of average build, and the stitched edges stay firm, so the outer few centimetres are genuinely usable. If either of you sprawls, the UK king gives 75cm each.
Will a Vispring Sublime Superb UK double fit in my bedroom?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, with around 3m x 3m the comfortable norm. In a room that size you can usually keep a bedside table on each side and still walk round the bed.
Vispring Sublime Superb double vs king: how much smaller is the double?
The UK double is 15cm narrower and 10cm shorter than the UK king, and gives 7.5cm less each for two sharing. By our guidance the UK king needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m, against 2.6m x 2.8m for the UK double.
How long is a Vispring Sublime Superb UK double?
It is 190cm long, or 6ft 3in, the same length as the UK single and UK small double. If you or your partner need more length, the UK king is 10cm longer.
Is the soft Vispring Sublime Superb a good guest room double?
It can be, if your guests are mostly couples of light to average build. The Soft tension may feel too yielding for heavier sleepers or stomach sleepers. A UK double keeps a second bedroom usable, with space left for a wardrobe.
