It is not possible to have good, refreshing sleep without really being comfortable. At SAMIRAQ, we think that having the right bed can make all the difference. We're an established UK firm that manufactures and retails well-made upholstered beds, mattresses, and headboards. What we primarily wish to do is ensure that you sleep well at night. One of the key — but commonly neglected — aspects of making the ultimate sleep space is deciding on the ideal bed size. Whether you are remodeling your bedroom or purchasing your first bed, selecting the optimal UK bed size can enhance your sleep, help you feel more at ease, and even enhance your overall well-being.
In this blog, we will discuss the influence of bed sizes, the role of space in sleep quality, how SAMIRAQ designs its double beds and bigger models with comfort and quality as a priority, and how selecting the right bed size can revolutionize your bedtime routine.
Why Bed Size Matters More Than You Think
You may think that any bed, provided that it has a good mattress, will suffice. However, the fact is, the size of the bed actually affects sleep. Consider your sleep movements: you may turn over, stretch out, curl up, or spread out.If the bed is not big enough you may be waking several times through the night, disrupting your sleep and depriving you of proper rest.
For couples this can be even worse. A bed that is too small can result in any number of bad sleeping experiences ranging from discomfort, to backaches or even fighting over space. This is where SAMIRAQ comes in - to provide beautifully designed beds that are made around standard bed sizes UK, that give you the best nights sleep ever.
The Standard Bed Sizes in the UK
Before diving deeper, let’s review the most common bed sizes UK:
- Single – 90 x 190 cm
- Small Double – 120 x 190 cm
- Double – 135 x 190 cm
- King – 150 x 200 cm
- Super King – 180 x 200 cm
- Emperor – 200 x 200 cm (Available upon request at SAMIRAQ)
Each of these bed sizes has varying needs, and choosing the correct one is determined by factors such as room space, number of sleepers, sleeping patterns, and lifestyle choice.
How SAMIRAQ Ensures Comfort Through Bed Sizes
1. Thoughtful Design Meets Function
SAMIRAQ beds are handcrafted. Each bed, from a double to a super king, is individually made with skill by skilled craftspeople in the UK. What this means is that each frame is carefully cut and upholstered to your preferred bed size for structural integrity, symmetry, and ergonomic support.
2. Materials That Matter
A bigger bed size requires superior materials to provide comfort throughout the entire surface. SAMIRAQ employs a sturdy combination of hardwood, high-density chipboard, and top-grade foams. This means that the bed not only appears luxurious — it feels supportive and lasts for years without sagging or squeaking.
3. The Role of Headboards and Storage
All SAMIRAQ double beds and larger feature matching, head-turning headboards that are as functional as they are fashionable. Our bigger beds also have storage options — particularly necessary for UK homes where making the most of space is key.
Choosing the Right Bed Size for Your Lifestyle
Small Double vs. Double: Ideal for Solo Sleepers
If you’re a solo sleeper with a preference for stretching out, a small double is ideal, but if you sleep with a partner or do a lot of tossing and turning in the night, a double bed is more appropriate, ensuring that each can move around without constraint.
King and Super King: Premium Comfort
A king size bed provides that little extra stretch without dominating your whole bedroom. It's perfect for couples, particularly those with children or pets who sometimes get in on the snuggles.
A super king is pure luxury. With each sleeper having roughly the width of a single bed to themselves, this choice promises the best sleep possible — particularly when paired with a SAMIRAQ premium mattress.
Emperor Beds: Ultimate Space
Rarely available in mainstream stores, our Emperor beds are one of our most sought-after made-to-measure products. At an enormous 200 x 200 cm, this is the bed of choice for those who like movie nights in bed, co-sleepers, or for anyone who simply loves having maximum space.
Bed Sizes UK: Adapting to Modern Lifestyles
Since lifestyle changes have altered considerably in contemporary times, bed sizes UK are more significant than ever. Individuals now work from their beds, savor breakfast in bed, spend leisure time watching TV, and cohabit the space with children, pets, or partners. The added usage translates to a higher need for beds that are both comfortable and long-lasting.
At SAMIRAQ, we acknowledge these trends and offer bed size personalization options to fit modern living styles without sacrificing aesthetics or quality.
