The Vispring Baronet Superb uses 1,326 hand-nested calico pocket springs made from vanadium steel, which means each spring responds to your body independently rather than as a single unit. The base depth is 21cm, with an additional 6cm of doming from the generous fillings. Vispring lists it as a firm mattress, although spring tensions are available in Soft, Medium, Firm and Extra Firm, so you can tailor the feel. It's a serious outlay, but this is handmade construction with premium natural materials throughout.

Why should you choose this mattress?
Choose the Baronet Superb if you want traditional craftsmanship and entirely natural fillings, with no synthetic foam in sight. Horsehair and wool are naturally breathable, which means they wick moisture away and help regulate temperature. If you're a hot sleeper, that matters more than any cooling gimmick. The hand-nested calico springs are sewn together by hand rather than glued, a slower method that tends to last. The choice of four spring tensions means couples of different weights, or anyone unsure about firmness, can get a feel matched to them. Yes, the price is high, but you're paying for hand tufting, natural materials and a construction method few makers still use.
Key features & layer details
Upholstery - Horsehair and wool blend
The fillings are entirely natural: horsehair, bonded British fleece wool and cotton, plus a blended British fleece wool and cotton layer, all encased in high-quality ticking. It's hand-tufted with felt washers, which keeps the fillings anchored so they don't shift or clump over time.
Spring system
A single layer of 1,326 vanadium steel pocket springs, hand-nested in calico pockets. Because each spring sits in its own fabric pocket and moves independently, you get support that follows your shape and less disturbance from a partner moving at night.

Best suited for?
Warm sleepers
Horsehair and wool fillings are naturally breathable, which means they wick moisture away and help regulate temperature, so the bed should feel less clammy overnight.
Couples
Each spring sits in its own calico pocket and moves independently, which means you feel less disturbance when your partner turns over at night.
Eco-conscious buyers
Fillings are entirely natural, using horsehair, British fleece wool and cotton, with no synthetic foam, so the whole mattress is built from natural materials.
Heavier sleepers
A firm feel and 1,326 vanadium steel pocket springs, with Firm and Extra Firm tensions available, give a supportive base that follows your shape.
This is a firm mattress at heart, so lightweight side sleepers may find the standard tension a little unforgiving, although softer spring options exist. Vegans should look elsewhere given the horsehair and wool. And if your budget doesn't stretch to the starting price, there are perfectly good pocket sprung options for less.
Save on an earlier or ex-display model
Some retailers still sell the earlier version of this mattress, or ex-display and returned stock at a lower price. These are the sizes where it costs less than the current model's best price.

FAQ's
How firm is the Vispring Baronet Superb?
Vispring describes it as a firm mattress, although spring tensions are available in Soft, Medium, Firm and Extra Firm. That flexibility means you can choose a feel to suit your weight and sleeping position rather than accepting one fixed firmness.
What is the Vispring Baronet Superb made of?
The fillings are entirely natural: horsehair, bonded British fleece wool and cotton, hand-tufted with felt washers. Underneath sits a hand-nested calico pocket spring unit with 1,326 vanadium steel springs. There's no synthetic foam in the construction.
How deep is the Vispring Baronet Superb mattress?
The base depth is 21cm, with an additional 6cm of doming on top from the natural fillings, give or take 2cm. That doming is normal for traditionally upholstered mattresses and settles gradually with use.
