Vispring Baronet Superb Firm Mattress

Assessed from Vispring's published specification for this mattress, captured September 2026, and from regular price comparison across our UK retail partners.

Choose the Baronet Superb if you want traditional craftsmanship with no synthetic foams. The fillings are horsehair, bonded British fleece wool and cotton, natural fibres that breathe well, which means less heat build-up overnight if you tend to sleep warm. The hand-nested calico springs are sewn into individual pockets, so you feel supported where you press down and less disturbance from a partner's movement. The Firm tension suits back and front sleepers who like a supportive, less yielding feel, although lightweight side sleepers may find it a little too unyielding at the shoulder and hip. Yes, the price is high, but the materials and hand construction go some way to justifying it.

Back sleepers
The Firm tension gives a supportive, less yielding feel, while the middle wool and cotton layer adds a softer transition above the springs.

Front sleepers
A firm tension keeps the surface supportive and less yielding, which suits anyone who likes to feel held up rather than sunk in.

Warm sleepers
Horsehair, British fleece wool and cotton are natural fibres that breathe well, which means less heat build-up overnight than you would get from synthetic foams.

Couples
Each of the 1,326 pocket springs works independently and sits in its own calico pocket, so you feel less disturbance when your partner moves.

Eco-conscious buyers
With no synthetic foams at all, the fillings are natural horsehair, bonded British fleece wool and cotton, built around hand-nested springs.

If you're on a tight budget, this isn't your mattress. It's also only made in UK King and Super King, so smaller rooms are out. Lightweight side sleepers may find the Firm tension too hard, and anyone wanting memory foam contouring should look elsewhere, as there's no foam here at all.

How firm is the Vispring Baronet Superb?

This version is a Firm mattress, suiting sleepers who prefer solid support over a sinking feel. Vispring's own page shows the model is also made in Soft, Medium and Extra Firm tensions, so check which tension you're buying if firm isn't right for you.

What is the Vispring Baronet Superb made of?

Entirely natural fillings: horsehair, bonded British fleece wool and cotton, over 1,326 hand-nested vanadium steel pocket springs in calico pockets. There's no foam anywhere in the build, which means better breathability and a more traditional feel than most modern mattresses.

How deep is the Vispring Baronet Superb mattress?

The mattress is 21cm deep, plus around 6cm of doming from the natural fillings, with a variation of plus or minus 2cm. That's shallower than many modern hybrids, so deep fitted sheets may be looser than you're used to.

What sizes does the Vispring Baronet Superb come in?

It's available in UK King and UK Super King. Smaller sizes such as Single and Double aren't listed, so it's limited if you need a compact option.

Does the Vispring Baronet Superb come with a trial or guarantee?

Vispring's product page doesn't mention a trial period, guarantee length or delivery terms. Check directly with the retailer you buy from, as any trial or guarantee will depend on their own policies.
