Inside the Vispring Magnificence Firm you'll find hand-teased Shetland wool blended with cashmere and mohair, Austrian Moosburger® horsetail and two layers of hand-nested vanadium steel pocket springs, 2,812 of them in the 150 x 200cm size. Vispring describes this tension as the ultimate in firm support, which means a noticeably solid, supportive feel rather than a soft, enveloping one. It comes in UK King and UK Super King, and the base mattress measures 25cm deep with an additional 6cm of doming on top. Firm is one of four tensions available, so lighter sleepers can choose a gentler option.

Why should you choose this mattress?
You'd choose the Magnificence for its natural fillings and traditional handwork. The top layer combines Shetland wool with cashmere and mohair, fibres that breathe well and help regulate temperature, so hot sleepers should feel the benefit. Beneath that sits hand-opened Austrian Moosburger® horsetail, a springy natural fibre that adds resilience without synthetic foams. The two layers of hand-nested pocket springs respond to your body independently, which means less motion transfer if you share the bed and support that follows your shape. This Firm tension suits heavier bodies and confirmed back sleepers, although lightweight side sleepers may find it a little unyielding. Yes, the price is extraordinary, but the materials and construction here are genuinely rare.
Key features & layer details
Top upholstery layer
Hand-teased real Shetland wool blended with cashmere and mohair. These natural fibres wick moisture and breathe, which means a cooler, drier feel through the night.
Middle upholstery layer
Hand-opened Austrian Moosburger® horsetail. Horsetail is naturally springy and resilient, adding gentle bounce and helping the mattress keep its shape over time.
Base upholstery layer
Blended real Shetland wool and cotton. This layer cushions the transition between the soft upper fillings and the springs below.
Spring layer 1
Hand-nested vanadium steel pocket springs arranged in two layers, with 2,812 springs in the 150 x 200cm size. Each spring moves independently, which means the mattress responds to your shape and limits disturbance from a partner.

Best suited for?
Heavier sleepers
The firm tension and two layers of hand-nested pocket springs give a solid, supportive feel that suits heavier bodies.
Back sleepers
Vispring describes this tension as the ultimate in firm support, which means a flat, solid feel that suits confirmed back sleepers.
Warm sleepers
Shetland wool, cashmere and mohair in the top layer breathe and wick moisture, which means a cooler, drier feel through the night.
Couples
Each pocket spring moves independently, which means less disturbance from a partner and support that follows each person's shape.
Eco-conscious buyers
Natural fillings such as wool, horsetail and cotton are used throughout, so you get resilience and comfort without synthetic foams.
This is a genuinely firm mattress, so lightweight side sleepers may find too little give at the shoulder and hip; the Medium or Soft tensions of this model would suit them better. It also has a premium starting price, and only comes in UK King and UK Super King, so anyone needing a smaller size will need to look elsewhere.
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 Magnificence Firm mattress?
Vispring describes it as the ultimate in firm support, so expect a solid, supportive surface with limited sink. Firm is one of four tensions available for this model alongside Soft, Medium and Extra Firm, so you can choose a gentler feel if this sounds too much.
What is the Vispring Magnificence made of?
The fillings are entirely natural: hand-teased Shetland wool blended with cashmere and mohair on top, hand-opened Austrian Moosburger® horsetail in the middle, and a Shetland wool and cotton base layer. Support comes from two layers of hand-nested vanadium steel pocket springs, with coir and high-quality ticking also used.
How many springs does the Vispring Magnificence have?
There are 2,812 pocket springs in the 150 x 200cm size, arranged in two hand-nested layers. Spring counts scale with mattress size, so other sizes will differ slightly.
How deep is the Vispring Magnificence mattress?
Vispring lists the base mattress depth as 25cm, with a further 6cm of doming on top, give or take 2cm. So the overall profile you'll see on the bed is deeper than the base figure suggests.
What sizes does the Vispring Magnificence Firm come in?
It's available in UK King and UK Super King.
