Beneath the Vispring Magnificence's upholstery layers sit 2,812 hand-nested vanadium steel pocket springs in a two layer calico construction, which means each spring responds to your body independently rather than as one stiff unit. Vispring describes it as the ultimate in firm support, with a choice of tensions from Soft through to Extra Firm. The price is a serious sum by any measure. It is a mattress for buyers who want traditional craftsmanship and natural fillings, and are prepared to pay for it.

Why should you choose this mattress?
The case for the Magnificence rests on its materials and how they are put together. Wool, cashmere and mohair on top give a soft, breathable sleeping surface, while horsetail underneath adds resilience, which means the mattress springs back rather than developing body impressions quickly. Natural fibres also wick moisture, a genuine help if you sleep warm. The two layer calico pocket spring unit, with 2,812 hand-nested springs, gives progressive support: gentle at first contact, firmer as you settle in. The base mattress depth is 25cm, with around 6cm of doming on top. Yes, the price is extraordinary, but you are paying for hand-teased fillings and hand-nested springs, not machine-made shortcuts. Tension options from Soft to Extra Firm let you tailor the feel.
Key features & layer details
Top upholstery layer
Hand-teased real Shetland wool blended with cashmere and mohair. These fibres are naturally breathable and soft against the body, which means a gentler surface feel and better temperature regulation than synthetic fillings.
Middle upholstery layer
Hand-opened Austrian Moosburger® horsetail. Horsetail is prized for its resilience, which means it recovers its shape night after night and helps the mattress resist sagging.
Base upholstery layer
Blended real Shetland wool and cotton. This layer cushions the transition between the soft upper fillings and the springs below, so you feel support without feeling the spring unit itself.
Spring layer
A two layer hand-nested calico pocket spring construction with 2,812 vanadium steel pocket springs. Two tiers of springs give progressive support, which means a softer initial feel that firms up as you sink in.

Best suited for?
Warm sleepers
Wool, cashmere and mohair on top are naturally breathable and wick moisture, which means the surface stays comfortable if you tend to sleep hot.
Back sleepers
The extra firm tension and progressive two layer spring unit give level support that firms up as you settle, which suits lying flat on your back.
Couples
With 2,812 hand-nested pocket springs responding independently, each person gets support that follows their own body rather than moving as one stiff unit.
Eco-conscious buyers
Hand-teased wool, cashmere, mohair and horsetail fill the layers above the springs, giving a mattress built from natural fibres rather than synthetic padding.
If your budget is anywhere near the mainstream, this is not your mattress. It is also unsuitable if you prefer the contouring hug of memory foam, as natural fillings over springs feel more buoyant. And if any tension chosen proves wrong, there is little margin for error at a premium starting price.
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 mattress?
Vispring describes it as the ultimate in firm support, and it is available in a choice of tensions: Soft, Medium, Firm and Extra Firm. So rather than one fixed feel, you select the tension that suits your weight and sleeping position when you order.
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 base layer of Shetland wool and cotton. These sit over 2,812 hand-nested vanadium steel pocket springs in a two layer calico construction.
How deep is the Vispring Magnificence mattress?
The base mattress depth is 25cm, with around 6cm of doming on top from the generous natural fillings, give or take 2cm. The doming settles slightly with use, which is normal for a hand-filled mattress of this kind.
How much does the Vispring Magnificence cost?
It depends on the size you choose, and the price table on this page shows the current price for each size. Sizes available are UK Single, Small Double, Double, King and Super King. It sits at the very top end of the market, reflecting the handmade construction and natural fillings.
