Frequently Asked Questions
What size is a European small single mattress?
A European small single is 80 x 200cm (2ft8). It is 10cm longer than a UK small single and a little wider. Measure your frame carefully before ordering, because it will not fit a UK small single frame.
Will it fit a UK small single frame?
No. A UK small single frame is shorter and narrower than this mattress. Only order for a frame that is 80 x 200cm, and measure the inside of your frame carefully before you buy to avoid a poor fit.
Is it a medium pocket sprung mattress?
Yes, medium comfort with independent pocket springs. The springs move separately for targeted support, and the medium feel suits many sleepers. Comfort is personal, so check the product page for the full description and depth before ordering.
What sheets fit an 80 x 200cm mattress?
You need 80 x 200cm fitted sheets, made for European small single mattresses. UK small single sheets are shorter and may not fit. Check the size and pocket depth on the label against the mattress depth on the product page.
Who is it for?
It suits taller teens and adults in narrow European beds, where the extra 10cm of length helps. It is also a practical choice for compact rooms. Check your frame is 80 x 200cm and think about how you like to sleep before ordering.
Is it quiet?
Pocket springs are generally quiet because each spring moves independently in its own fabric pocket. No mattress is silent, and noise also depends on your bed base, so keep slats or the frame in good condition.
Does it sleep warm?
Springs help airflow, so a pocket sprung mattress usually feels cooler than all foam. Bedding and room temperature matter too. Breathable bedding and a ventilated room help if you tend to sleep warm, and comfort varies from person to person.
Should I rotate it?
Yes, rotate it head to foot every few months to spread wear evenly across the springs. Check the care label for guidance. Keep it on a supportive, ventilated base, and air the room regularly to keep the mattress fresh.
Will it fit a bunk bed?
Check your bed's maximum mattress depth first. Bunk and cabin beds often have depth limits and minimum guard rail heights, and the frame must also be 80 x 200cm. Follow the bed manufacturer's guidance and check the depth on the product page.
How long will it last?
Several years with care and regular rotation. How long it lasts depends on use, sleeper weight and care, so take this as a general guide. Replace any mattress that sags noticeably or stops feeling supportive.
