With the average person being taller these days, we have seen an increase in demand for extra-long double mattresses and European size double mattresses. A standard UK double mattress measures 4ft6 x 6ft3 (135cm x 190cm), while a European style mattress measures 4ft7 x 6ft6. So, no need to curl up just to keep your feet warm.

Selecting the right mattress is essential for a restful night’s sleep, and IKEA double mattresses offer various options to suit different needs and preferences. At Archers Sleepcentre, we provide an extensive selection of IKEA double mattresses, including reflex foam, open coil, and pocket sprung varieties. In this article, we’ll explore the differences in mattress sizes, the types of mattresses available, the benefits of memory foam layers, the advantages of vacuum-rolled mattresses, and how to care for your new mattress.
Mattress Size Differences: European Double vs. UK Double and King Size
Understanding the size differences between various mattresses is crucial for making an informed decision. Let's compare European double mattresses with standard UK double and king-size mattresses.
European Double Mattress (140 x 200 cm)
A European double mattress, often found at IKEA, measures 140 x 200 cm. This size is slightly wider and 10cm longer than the standard UK double, offering more room for a comfortable sleep.
UK Double Mattress (135 x 190 cm)
A standard UK size double mattress measures 135 x 190 cm. It is narrower and shorter than its European counterpart, making it a better fit for smaller bedrooms while still providing ample space for two people.
UK King Size Mattress (150 x 200 cm)
The UK king-size mattress measures 150 x 200 cm. It offers extra width compared to both the European double and UK double, providing additional space for couples who prefer more room to stretch out.
Please note that a Ikea double mattress will require a European double bed frame and will not fit a standard UK double bed.
Types of Mattresses Available
Choosing the right type of mattress can significantly impact your sleep quality. Here’s an overview of the different mattress types of European double size mattresses available at Archers Sleepcentre.
Reflex Foam Mattresses
Reflex foam mattresses are known for their durability and support. Made from high-density foam, they provide excellent back support, making them ideal for people with back issues. Reflex foam also contours to your body shape, ensuring a comfortable night's sleep.
Open Coil Mattresses
Open coil mattresses feature a system of interconnected springs that offer good support and are usually more affordable. These mattresses are lightweight and easy to move, making them a practical choice for many households. They provide a supportive sleep surface, suitable for those who prefer a traditional mattress feel.
Pocket spring mattresses contain individually wrapped springs that move independently, providing tailored support to different areas of the body. This design helps reduce motion transfer, making pocket sprung mattresses an excellent choice for couples. They offer superior comfort and support, ensuring a restful and undisturbed sleep.
Benefits of a Memory Foam Layer in Your 140 x 200 Mattress
Choosing a mattress with a memory foam layer can enhance your sleep experience. Let’s look at the specific benefits of memory foam in a 140 x 200 mattress.
Enhanced Comfort and Support
A memory foam layer in your 140 x 200 mattress can significantly enhance comfort and support. Memory foam conforms to your body's shape, providing personalised support and relieving pressure points. This helps to reduce aches and pains, ensuring a more restful sleep.
Motion Isolation
Memory foam excels at isolating motion, meaning that movements on one side of the bed do not disturb the other side. This is particularly beneficial for couples, as it minimises disturbances caused by a partner's movements during the night.
Benefits and Features of Vacuum Rolled IKEA Double Mattresses
Vacuum-rolled mattresses offer numerous advantages, making them a popular choice for many. Here’s why you should consider a vacuum-rolled IKEA double mattress.
Convenience and Ease of Transport
Vacuum rolled mattresses, often referred to as mattresses in a box, are compressed and rolled for easy transport and handling. This makes it simple to move the mattress through narrow hallways and staircases, and it's more convenient for home delivery.
Quick Setup
Once unboxed, these mattresses quickly expand to their full size, allowing you to enjoy a good night's sleep without a long wait. They are designed to regain their shape and structure within a few hours.
How to Care for Your New Mattress
Proper care can extend the lifespan of your mattress and maintain its comfort and support. Here’s how to take care of your new IKEA double mattress.
Regular Rotation
Rotate your mattress regularly to ensure even wear and extend its lifespan. If your mattress is double sided, then it should also be flipped regularly.
Use a Mattress Protector
A mattress protector can help safeguard against spills, stains, and dust mites, keeping your mattress clean and hygienic.
Clean Up Spills Immediately
If spills occur, clean them immediately with a damp cloth to prevent stains and damage. Avoid soaking the mattress, and ensure the area is thoroughly dried.
Hoover Regularly
Hoover your mattress regularly using a vacuum cleaner with an upholstery attachment. This helps to remove dust, allergens, and dirt, maintaining a clean and healthy sleeping environment.
