Extra Long Mattresses

Standard extra long mattresses typically measure 200cm, 210cm, or 220cm in length. Custom manufacturing allows any specific length up to 220cm. Most people over 6ft find 200cm comfortable, whilst those over 6ft 6in often prefer 210cm or longer. The width remains standard - single, double, king, or super king - only the length extends beyond the usual 190cm.

Extra long mattresses typically cost 15-25% more than standard equivalents due to additional materials and custom manufacturing. A standard double might cost £400, whilst a 200cm extra long double could cost £480-500. The exact price depends on mattress type, thickness, and materials chosen. Custom cutting and individual manufacturing add to production costs compared to mass-produced standard sizes.

Lead times typically range from 7-14 working days depending on seasonal demand and current production capacity. Each extra long mattress gets manufactured individually rather than selected from existing stock. Spring and autumn see higher demand, potentially extending delivery times. Free UK delivery is standard, with most orders dispatched within the quoted timeframe once manufacturing completes.

Yes, guarantees up to 10 years are available depending on mattress type and construction. Memory foam and pocket spring extra long mattresses typically carry longer guarantees than basic open coil versions. The guarantee covers manufacturing defects and premature sagging, not normal wear or damage. Custom-made mattresses receive the same guarantee terms as standard sizes from the same range.

All mattress types are available in extra long dimensions - memory foam, pocket springs, open coil, latex, and hybrid constructions. Memory foam extra long mattresses offer pressure relief for tall sleepers, whilst pocket springs provide targeted support across the extended length. Hybrid options combine memory foam comfort with spring support, particularly beneficial for longer sleeping surfaces requiring consistent support.

Most extra long mattresses can navigate standard UK doorways when carried at an angle. The additional 10-20cm length rarely causes access issues compared to standard mattresses. Vacuum-packed memory foam versions compress for easier delivery. If access looks tight, delivery teams can assess the route beforehand. Stairways and tight corners pose more challenges than doorways for any mattress size.

Extra long mattresses are available in thicknesses from 15cm up to 35cm, matching standard mattress ranges. Thicker options provide more comfort layers and support, particularly beneficial for taller, heavier sleepers who need extra long dimensions. Memory foam versions often start at 20cm thickness, whilst pocket spring extra long mattresses typically range from 25-30cm for optimal support and durability.
