1. Small Single
2ft6″ x 6ft3″ (76cm x 190cm)
Best for:
• Young children transitioning from a cot.
• Smaller guest rooms or box rooms where space is limited.
Considerations:
Ideal for compact spaces, but may feel cramped for teenagers or adults.
2. Single
3ft x 6ft3″ (90cm x 190cm)
Best for:
• Teenagers and young adults.
• Solo sleepers who want just enough space.
Considerations:
Great for narrow rooms, but may not provide enough room for taller individuals or those who toss and turn.
3. Small Double
4ft x 6ft3″ (120cm x 190cm)
Best for:
• Couples who don’t mind sharing a cosy space.
• Single sleepers who like extra room to stretch out.
Considerations:
A practical option for smaller bedrooms, though it might feel tight for two.
4. Double
4ft6″ x 6ft3″ (135cm x 190cm)
Best for:
• Couples in standard-sized bedrooms.
• Single sleepers wanting more comfort.
Considerations:
The most popular size in the UK, offering versatility. However, larger couples may prefer more space.
5. King
5ft x 6ft6″ (150cm x 200cm)
Best for:
• Couples who want extra width and length.
• Taller individuals needing additional legroom.
Considerations:
Works well in larger bedrooms but ensure your room has enough space to move around comfortably.
6. Super King
6ft x 6ft6″ (180cm x 200cm)
Best for:
• Couples who prioritise maximum space and luxury.
• Families where children or pets occasionally share the bed.
Considerations:
The ultimate in comfort, but it requires a spacious bedroom to avoid feeling cramped.
Common Issues and Solutions
1. Small Bedrooms
• Choose a Small Double or Single to maximise space without sacrificing comfort.
2. Taller Individuals
• Opt for King or Super King for extra legroom. A mattress length of 6ft6″ (200cm) ensures no dangling feet!
3. Couples Sharing a Bed
• Consider body size and sleep habits. A Double may feel cramped for two, especially if one partner is a restless sleeper.
4. Family Sleepers
• Super King is ideal if kids or pets join you in bed occasionally.
Quick Tips
• Always measure your bedroom space before buying. Leave at least 24 inches (60cm) of walking space around the bed.
• Don’t forget bed frames! The overall size, including the frame, can add extra bulk.

Description
The Shallow 1000 Mattress is proudly manufactured in the UK by Dura Beds, a respected British manufacturer recognised for exceptional product quality and customer service.
With an 18cm depth, this mattress is specially designed for bunk beds, guest beds, trundle beds, and day beds where a lower profile mattress is required. At its core is a supportive 1,000 pocket spring system that works independently to contour to the body, helping to relieve pressure points and support healthy spinal alignment for a more comfortable night’s sleep.
The pocket spring unit is reinforced with a durable rod edge frame for added edge support and stability, while layers of soft comfort fillings provide a medium support feel suitable for a wide range of sleepers.
Finished in a quality stitchbond fabric cover, the mattress features a quilted sleeping surface for added comfort and a zig-zag stitched border to improve durability and extend lifespan. Air vents are included to encourage airflow and breathability, while hand tufting helps keep the fillings securely in place for long-lasting performance.
Please note: Due to its lightweight construction, this mattress is not recommended for use with Ottoman Divan Bases. Divan base and headboard are not included.

60-Night Comfort Trial
60-Night Comfort Trial
This mattress comes with a free 60-night comfort trial, just like all of our mattresses.
We encourage you to sleep on your new mattress for at least 30 nights, as it can take time for your body to adjust. If, after 30 nights, it’s not feeling quite right, simply get in touch — we’ll be happy to swap it for you.
Still not in love by night 60? No worries. The comfort trial gives you the flexibility to find the perfect fit.
