Do you have a super king size bed?

How much do you love it?

Ours is being delivered this week, I'm so excited!

What size duvet do you have? And what about long pillows or regular?

Love to hear all about yours!

Absolutely adore but will really change things when deciding on a hotel room from now on

We have an emperor. It is 200cm
wife and I absolutely love it. Bought emperors size bedding from The Duvet Store as it was the cheapest retailer for that quality by far.

To the people who use two single divers, don’t you find them about 6 inches too short? I tried it one summer and found this.

No haven't found that at all

I have! And nothing compares. I chose my new home because the new bedroom had to house it properly.

I just love our super king size bed. Can be split into two singles. I bought amazing bed linen in Tesco last week for £24 pound which is a bargain for super king. I just could not sleep in a double bed with my husband.

We share ours with a great Dane and a cat so whilst we love it, I wouldn't say we enjoy it optimally.

Love ours and have no problem getting bedding - usually from Dunelm.
Currently have a super king duvet but seriously considering two singles instead. Would be easy to change, wash/dry and no more fighting DP!

We have a super king DH is 6'4 and he can lay straight without his feet sticking out at the end which he said was a revelation!
SK duvet, normal pillows, but ds bought me a giant squishmallow for Christmas last year that now lives in the gap (yes DH should've intervened and not facilitated that purchase....) , also have a Dreamland SK dual control heated mattress topper, honestly it's my favourite place to be.

PublicEnemyNo2 · 20/10/2024 22:29

another one who hated them. Only good if they’re in a huge room with hired help to change the duvet cover.

cannot bear double beds for couples so kingsize is the sweet spot unless you live in a castle or massive house

unstableunicorn · 20/10/2024 22:35

Not me but my parents upgraded to a super king recently with a super king duvet I believe! My dad loves it as he's quite tall and he can stretch out now, mum isn't fussed but does feel it looks a bit too big for their room and is harder to change bedding

StressedQueen · 20/10/2024 22:38

Yes it's gorgeous and accommodates tall DH!

King bed with super king duvet.
Double bed with king duvet.
Single bed with double duvet.

BERB24 · 20/10/2024 23:06

We absolutely love ours but it’s basically ruined holidays for us.

Superking duvet, regular pillows.

cassiefromlondon · 20/10/2024 23:20

King size bed and super king duvet

NewUserNewName · 20/10/2024 23:23

We have 2 double duvets, and 3 pillows, so DS can come into our bed, and we can share a blanket with him.

Notaflippinclue · 20/10/2024 23:53

Big enough for 3 or 4!

bettysyourauntie · 21/10/2024 00:08

Yes! The best thing ever! Just love it.
Could easily go a bit bigger if it was available in this country (not as bespoke size)... zzz

I LOVE mine. Will never be without one after this!

We use super king bedding but a lot use two single duvets. We can't, however, seem to find a fitted sheet that fits properly. The 25cm depth ones are slightly too short (even though our mattress is 25cm deep) and the extra deep ones are far too baggy. It's a first world problem but pisses me off.

You need sheet suspenders / bed sheet clips.
