European Double Mattresses

Our European double mattresses measure 140cmW x 200cmL with a minimum of 25cm depth depending on the range and model. The European double size is available in our Hybrid® Original, and the Hybrid® Pro and Hybrid® Luxe models; you’ll find a standard UK double size in the rest of our Hybrid® range and our Earth range. 

If you need a bigger EU size mattress for your bed, we also have roomy EU Queen Size Hybrid® Original Mattresses, and EU Queen Hybrid® Pro and Hybrid® Luxe Mattresses. And if you’re after a smaller EU size, our European Single Mattresses are an ideal choice for kids or guest beds. 

European double mattresses are slightly longer than UK double mattresses, so do check the size of your bed carefully before you make your choice. The extra length may also mean you need to measure your bedroom, carefully making sure you have plenty of room around the bed and that you can open any drawers, cupboards and doors.  

Once you’ve put your tape measure away, you need to consider who your new EU double mattress is for, and how often it’s going to be used. We often recommend European double mattresses for taller people or growing teenagers, so they get adequate support for their whole body when they sleep. 

Yes, we offer a range of UK mattresses sizes across our ranges – including UK Standard Single Mattresses. If you’re looking for a slightly roomier sleep, you might want to consider our wider Double Mattresses, King Size Mattresses or go all-out with a Super King Mattress.

Our mattresses are designed to offer responsive support to your body, rather than being firm or soft. 

So what does that feel like? It’s about the correct balance between a top layer that reacts to your body shape and weight, on top of a layer that gently stops that response. For optimum support to be achieved you need both these layers and their functions: without the responsive comfort layer it would be like sleeping on a wooden plank, without the firmer support layer it would be like sleeping on a bouncy trampoline.

Looking to buy a European double mattress but not sure which one? Simba’s award-winning, patented mattress technology underpins all our EU double Hybrid® mattresses. Whether you sleep on your front, side or back, the unique combination of our responsive Aerocoil® springs and our Simbatex® foam is designed to offer tailored support and superior comfort for your body. That goes for any size mattress in our range, including our EU double size mattresses.

There’s no need to turn it over to prolong its life, but we do recommend you rotate your European double mattress head to foot once a month for the first three months. After that it’s a good idea to do this once every three months for the rest of its life.  

Selected Simba EU double bed mattresses feature a removable cover which you can wash, but we also recommend you get one of our machine washable, quilted cotton Mattress Protectors to help keep your new European double mattress fresh and clean. 

We aim to refurbish or recycle all the mattresses that are returned to us. Not only is it kinder to the planet to give mattresses another life, we’re also striving to keep them from landfill. We’re proud to say most mattresses returned to us during their trial period are refurbished by our trusted third partner. It puts our unique Simba sleep tech within reach to more people, because everyone deserves a great night’s sleep. 

So yes, we definitely do sell refurbished European double mattresses. When you send them back to us, they’re 100% tested, sanitised, and certified by Simba, and include a 1-year guarantee.

We don’t want any of our mattresses to go to landfill, so all the European double mattresses for sale at Simba are suitable for recycling via our collection service or certain specialist providers. If you return yours during your 200-night trial (or under our 10-year guarantee), it’ll be refurbished; any with too much wear and tear are recycled. When your mattress reaches the end of its life, we offer a specialised Simba Mattress Recycling Service on our website. All you need to do is pay a small fee, and we collect it for you. It doesn’t matter what brand or size it is, and there’s no Simba purchase necessary.   

Yes, we offer guaranteed free delivery on your European double mattress, even in sale periods. It’ll arrive conveniently rolled and boxed, just give it a couple of days to fully regain its shape. You’ll also get a 200-night free trial period, completely risk free. If you’re not happy withing that time, let us know and we’ll collect it for free. 

There’s no universal industry system that scores one so-called ‘firm mattress’ against another. But we believe a medium-firm EU double mattress is most likely to offer the comfort our customers need for quality sleep, so we’ve created our Hybrid® mattresses accordingly. They’re designed to offer supportive body alignment alongside soothing pressure relief.
