On a king size mattress, each person gets around 75cm of sleeping width.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s the point where most people can sleep comfortably without constantly noticing their partner\u2019s movements. On a double, where each person has around 67.5cm, the difference sounds small but in practice it often isn\u2019t. That slightly reduced space is usually where movement starts to be felt more easily, which is why couples tend to notice the upgrade straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The extra length is talked about less, but it matters just as much for the right person. A king size mattress is 200cm long compared to 190cm for a standard double, which makes a noticeable difference for taller sleepers. As a rough guide, a double tends to suit people up to around 5ft 11in, while a king size is more comfortable up to around 6ft 3in. If you or your partner are over 6ft, the extra length alone can make a real difference to how well you sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"king-size-personal-space-table\">\n\n<style>\n.ksp-table-wrap {\n  background-color: #f7f5f2;\n  border: 1px solid #e5e0d8;\n  border-radius: 12px;\n  overflow: hidden;\n  margin: 30px 0;\n}\n\n.ksp-table {\n  width: 100%;\n  border-collapse: collapse;\n  font-size: 15px;\n}\n\n.ksp-table th {\n  text-align: left;\n  padding: 16px 18px;\n  font-size: 12px;\n  text-transform: uppercase;\n  letter-spacing: 0.5px;\n  color: #7a7a7a;\n  background-color: #f1eee9;\n  border-bottom: 1px solid #e5e0d8;\n}\n\n.ksp-table td {\n  padding: 16px 18px;\n  vertical-align: top;\n  border-bottom: 1px solid #eee6dc;\n  color: #2a2a2a;\n  line-height: 1.6;\n}\n\n.ksp-table tr:last-child td {\n  border-bottom: none;\n}\n\n\/* Zebra striping *\/\n.ksp-table tr:nth-child(even) td {\n  background-color: #fbfaf8;\n}\n\n\/* Highlight king row *\/\n.ksp-table tr.highlight td {\n  font-weight: 600;\n}\n\n\/* First column *\/\n.ksp-table td:first-child {\n  font-weight: 600;\n  color: #4a4a4a;\n  width: 20%;\n}\n\n\/* Mobile *\/\n@media (max-width: 768px) {\n  .ksp-table-wrap {\n    overflow-x: auto;\n  }\n\n  .ksp-table {\n    min-width: 700px;\n  }\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n<div class=\"ksp-table-wrap\">\n\n<table class=\"ksp-table\">\n\n  <tbody><tr>\n    <th>Mattress size<\/th>\n    <th>Per person width<\/th>\n    <th>Equivalent to<\/th>\n    <th>What this means in practice<\/th>\n  <\/tr>\n\n  <tr>\n    <td>Double (135cm)<\/td>\n    <td>67.5cm each<\/td>\n    <td>Less than a standard single<\/td>\n    <td>Movement is more noticeable, and couples are more likely to disturb each other.<\/td>\n  <\/tr>\n\n  <tr class=\"highlight\">\n    <td>King size (150cm)<\/td>\n    <td>75cm each<\/td>\n    <td>More space than a double, but less than a standard single each<\/td>\n    <td>The point where most couples start to sleep more comfortably without regularly disturbing each other.<\/td>\n  <\/tr>\n\n  <tr>\n    <td>Super king (180cm)<\/td>\n    <td>90cm each<\/td>\n    <td>Roughly equivalent to a standard single each<\/td>\n    <td>More generous personal space, with less awareness of movement during the night.<\/td>\n  <\/tr>\n\n  <tr>\n    <td>Small emperor (200cm)<\/td>\n    <td>100cm each<\/td>\n    <td>Wider than a standard single each<\/td>\n    <td>Very spacious.

It\u2019s very easy to fall in love with the idea online, but the reality comes down to space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The mattress itself measures 150 \u00d7 200cm, but the room you need is always more than that. You need space to walk around the bed comfortably, room to open drawers if you\u2019re choosing a storage bed, and enough clearance to access wardrobes without everything feeling squeezed in.

It\u2019s usually measured in centimetres and can range from around 15cm for basic rolled mattresses up to 35cm or more for premium, hand-crafted designs with deeper comfort layers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s one of those details that\u2019s easy to overlook, but it has a real impact on how the mattress feels and how it works in your space. There are three main reasons it matters<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"mattress-depth-breakdown\">\n\n<style>\n.depth-section {\n  margin: 30px 0;\n}\n\n.depth-row {\n  display: flex;\n  gap: 30px;\n  padding: 20px 0;\n  border-top: 1px solid #eee6dc;\n}\n\n.depth-row:first-of-type {\n  border-top: none;\n}\n\n.depth-title {\n  min-width: 180px;\n  font-weight: 600;\n  color: #2a2a2a;\n}\n\n.depth-content {\n  flex: 1;\n  color: #4a4a4a;\n  line-height: 1.7;\n  font-size: 15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n<div class=\"depth-section\">\n\n  <div class=\"depth-row\">\n    <div class=\"depth-title\">Bedding fit<\/div>\n    <div class=\"depth-content\">\n      Fitted sheets and mattress protectors need to accommodate the depth of your mattress as well as any topper you\u2019re using. For example, a 30cm mattress with a 5cm topper will usually need sheets designed for at least 35cm depth. Standard fitted sheets often fit mattresses up to around 25 to 28cm, so it\u2019s worth checking before you buy new bedding or choose a deeper mattress.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"depth-row\">\n    <div class=\"depth-title\">Bed height<\/div>\n    <div class=\"depth-content\">\n      The combined height of your base, whether that\u2019s a divan or slatted frame, plus your mattress determines how high your bed sits overall. A thicker mattress on a tall base can make getting in and out feel less comfortable, while a thinner mattress on a lower base can leave the bed feeling a little low. It\u2019s worth thinking about the overall height, not just the mattress on its own.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"depth-row\">\n    <div class=\"depth-title\">Quality indicator<\/div>\n    <div class=\"depth-content\">\n      A deeper mattress often means more substantial comfort layers, whether that\u2019s additional filling above the spring unit or deeper foam layers. It\u2019s not a perfect measure of quality, as densely packed fillings can sometimes be shallower than lighter ones, but as a general guide, mattresses under 20cm are less likely to have a meaningful comfort layer above the springs.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"mattress-depth-table\">\n\n<style>\n.mdt-table-wrap {\n  background-color: #f7f5f2;\n  border: 1px solid #e5e0d8;\n  border-radius: 12px;\n  overflow: hidden;\n  margin: 30px 0;\n}\n\n.mdt-table {\n  width: 100%;\n  border-collapse: collapse;\n  font-size: 15px;\n}\n\n.mdt-table th {\n  text-align: left;\n  padding: 16px 18px;\n  font-size: 12px;\n  text-transform: uppercase;\n  letter-spacing: 0.5px;\n  color: #7a7a7a;\n  background-color: #f1eee9;\n  border-bottom: 1px solid #e5e0d8;\n}\n\n.mdt-table td {\n  padding: 16px 18px;\n  vertical-align: top;\n  border-bottom: 1px solid #eee6dc;\n  color: #2a2a2a;\n  line-height: 1.6;\n}\n\n.mdt-table tr:last-child td {\n  border-bottom: none;\n}\n\n\/* Zebra striping *\/\n.mdt-table tr:nth-child(even) td {\n  background-color: #fbfaf8;\n}\n\n\/* First column emphasis *\/\n.mdt-table td:first-child {\n  font-weight: 600;\n  color: #4a4a4a;\n  width: 18%;\n}\n\n\/* Mobile *\/\n@media (max-width: 768px) {\n  .mdt-table-wrap {\n    overflow-x: auto;\n  }\n\n  .mdt-table {\n    min-width: 650px;\n  }\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n<div class=\"mdt-table-wrap\">\n\n<table class=\"mdt-table\">\n\n  <tr>\n    <th>Depth range<\/th>\n    <th>What it typically indicates<\/th>\n    <th>Fitted sheet needed<\/th>\n  <\/tr>\n\n  <tr>\n    <td>15\u201320cm<\/td>\n    <td>Entry level or rolled mattresses with lighter comfort layers<\/td>\n    <td>Standard sheets (around 25cm depth)<\/td>\n  <\/tr>\n\n  <tr>\n    <td>20\u201325cm<\/td>\n    <td>Mid range mattresses with a reasonable comfort layer above the support core<\/td>\n    <td>Standard to deep sheets (25\u201330cm)<\/td>\n  <\/tr>\n\n  <tr>\n    <td>25\u201330cm<\/td>\n    <td>Premium designs with more substantial natural or foam comfort layers<\/td>\n    <td>Deep sheets (30\u201335cm)<\/td>\n  <\/tr>\n\n  <tr>\n    <td>30cm+<\/td>\n    <td>Luxury mattresses with thicker comfort layers, often using natural fillings and more detailed construction<\/td>\n    <td>Extra deep sheets (35cm+)<\/td>\n  <\/tr>\n\n<\/table>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"european-king\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is a European king size mattress?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is one of the most common mistakes people make when buying a mattress, and it\u2019s worth getting clear on before you order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A European king size mattress measures 160cm \u00d7 200cm, which makes it 10cm wider than a standard UK king size while keeping the same length.

Once connected, it looks and feels like a single mattress, but each side can be a completely different tension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For couples with different support needs, it\u2019s one of the most practical options available. One person can choose a firmer feel for back support, while the other can opt for something softer to relieve pressure at the hips and shoulders, without either having to compromise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s also a flexibility to it that standard king size mattresses don\u2019t offer.

A king size mattress works best in a space of around 3.5m \u00d7 3.5m, which gives you enough room to move comfortably on all sides. If your room is smaller, a well-made double can often be the better choice, especially if it means you avoid squeezing a larger bed into a space that doesn\u2019t quite support it.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ks-row\">\n    <div class=\"ks-question\">Are you sharing with a partner?<\/div>\n    <div class=\"ks-answer\">\n      If you are, a king size is usually the point where things start to feel noticeably more comfortable. The space per person increases from around 67.5cm on a double to 75cm on a king size, which is often the difference between regularly noticing movement and sleeping more undisturbed. It\u2019s one of the upgrades people tend to feel straight away.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ks-row\">\n    <div class=\"ks-question\">Are you taller than 5ft 11in?<\/div>\n    <div class=\"ks-answer\">\n      A king size mattress gives you 200cm in length, compared to 190cm for a standard double. That extra 10cm makes a real difference for taller sleepers. As a general guide, adding around 20cm to your height helps you find the right mattress length, so anyone around 5ft 9in or taller will benefit from the extra space.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ks-row\">\n    <div class=\"ks-question\">Do you co-sleep with children or pets?<\/div>\n    <div class=\"ks-answer\">\n      In this situation, a king size is often the minimum worth considering. Two adults and a child in a double can quickly feel crowded, while a king size gives you a bit more breathing room. If co-sleeping is something you do regularly, a super king is usually the more comfortable long-term option.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"faqs\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">King size mattress FAQs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"king-size-faqs\">\n\n<style>\n.ks-faq {\n  margin: 30px 0;\n}\n\n.ks-faq-item {\n  padding: 20px 0;\n  border-top: 1px solid #eee6dc;\n}\n\n.ks-faq-item:first-of-type {\n  border-top: none;\n}\n\n.ks-faq-question {\n  font-weight: 600;\n  color: #2a2a2a;\n  margin-bottom: 8px;\n}\n\n.ks-faq-answer {\n  color: #4a4a4a;\n  line-height: 1.7;\n  font-size: 15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n<div class=\"ks-faq\">\n\n  <div class=\"ks-faq-item\">\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-question\">What size is a UK king size mattress?<\/div>\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-answer\">\n      A standard UK king size mattress measures 150cm wide by 200cm long (5ft by 6ft 6in). That makes it 15cm wider and 10cm longer than a standard UK double mattress. Each person gets around 75cm of personal space.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ks-faq-item\">\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-question\">Is a king size the same as a super king?<\/div>\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-answer\">\n      No, they are different sizes. A UK king size is 150cm wide, while a super king is 180cm wide. Both are 200cm long. That extra 30cm gives each person around 90cm of space instead of 75cm, which can feel noticeably more generous. It is a meaningful upgrade, but it also requires a larger room, usually around 4m by 4m, and comes with higher costs for both the bed frame and bedding.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ks-faq-item\">\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-question\">Will a UK king size fit an IKEA bed frame?<\/div>\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-answer\">\n      No, not usually. IKEA bed frames are made to European king size dimensions, which are 160cm wide rather than 150cm. A UK king size mattress will be too narrow and will leave a visible gap. For an IKEA frame, you will need a European king size mattress measuring 160 \u00d7 200cm.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ks-faq-item\">\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-question\">What room size do I need for a king size bed?<\/div>\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-answer\">\n      As a general guide, a king size bed works best in a room of around 3.5m by 3.5m. This allows for comfortable clearance around the bed, particularly on the sides you use most often. If your room is smaller, it is worth measuring carefully and checking that doors, wardrobes, and walkways still function properly once the bed is in place.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ks-faq-item\">\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-question\">What\u2019s the difference between a UK king and a US king?<\/div>\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-answer\">\n      A US king size, sometimes called an Eastern King, measures 193cm by 203cm. That makes it wider and slightly longer than a UK king size. They are completely different sizes, so mattresses and bedding are not interchangeable. If you have a US bed frame, you will need to buy a US-sized mattress and bedding to match.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ks-faq-item\">\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-question\">How deep should a king size mattress be?<\/div>\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-answer\">\n      There is no single ideal depth, as it depends on the type and quality of the mattress. As a general guide, mattresses under 20cm tend to be more basic, while 25 to 30cm usually offers a more comfortable, mid to premium feel. Depths over 30cm are often found in higher-end mattresses with more substantial comfort layers. It is always worth checking that your fitted sheets are suitable for the depth, especially if you are using a topper as well.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"ks-faq-item\">\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-question\">Can I use a king size mattress on a double bed frame?<\/div>\n    <div class=\"ks-faq-answer\">\n      No, it is not recommended. A king size mattress is both wider and longer than a double frame, so it will overhang the edges. This does not just affect how it looks, it also means the mattress is not properly supported, which can lead to uneven wear over time. It is always best to match your mattress size exactly to your bed frame.\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-avatar\"><img alt='Alice Littler avatar' src='https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/208517f7735f86df4e4344face0d1f45397e33dad59c50d46db6838ed67fa3af?s=96&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g' srcset='https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/208517f7735f86df4e4344face0d1f45397e33dad59c50d46db6838ed67fa3af?s=192&#038;d=mm&#038;r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-96 photo wp-block-avatar__image' height='96' width='96' \/><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Written by Alice Littler<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alice brings a background in marketing, design, and branding to Land of Beds, where she focuses on making sleep advice simple, relatable, and practical for everyday life.
