King Mattresses
Having enough space to relax in is hugely important to the quality of your sleep. A king mattress is the most popular size in the UK. But don’t think there is just one version, in fact there are two. We also sell the slightly larger special size euro king to ensure customers with continental bed bases or frames measuring 160cm x 200cm find their perfect mattress too.

How to choose the correct king sized mattress
King size mattress: the most popular bed size for couples in the UK. Size matters, and measuring 150 x 200cm, a king mattress means you will have more space to sleep in. This is hugely important to the quality of your night’s rest. King size mattresses give you room to turn over and change your sleeping position without disturbing your partner. Match your mattress to the perfectly styled bed base and you have a recipe for relaxation. In America, a ‘Queen’ is the equivalent to a UK king mattress. In the Far East it may be known as a ‘Wide Double’.
