The Vispring Realm uses 1,326 vanadium steel springs in the 5 foot size, each hand-nested in its own calico pocket, which means every spring responds to your body independently rather than pulling on its neighbours. The listed tension is Firm, so this is a bed for people who like solid, supportive comfort rather than a soft, sinking feel. It's a serious spend, although the handmade construction and natural fillings go some way to explaining it.

Why should you choose this mattress?
Choose the Realm if you want traditional craftsmanship rather than foam and synthetics. The springs are hand-nested in calico pockets and topped with a wool protector pad, which means the support feels responsive and the bed breathes well, a genuine help if you sleep hot. Hand tufting with felt washers holds the fillings in place so they settle evenly over time rather than shifting into lumps. Two rows of hand side-stitching firm up the edges, so you can sleep right up to the side without feeling you might roll off. Furniture Village backs it with a 20-year guarantee, longer than most brands offer, which says something about how it is built.
Key features & layer details
Ticking
The mattress is covered in soft, finest quality ticking. It is the surface you will actually feel through your sheet, so the softness here matters.
Hand tufting and side-stitching
Hand tufting with felt washers anchors the fillings so they stay evenly distributed rather than migrating. Two rows of hand side-stitching strengthen the edge, giving you usable sleeping space right to the border.
Springs and pockets
The 5 foot size holds 1,326 vanadium steel springs, each with 6 coils and hand-nested in its own calico pocket, sitting beneath a wool protector pad. Individual pockets mean each spring moves on its own, which reduces the ripple you feel when a partner turns over.
Borders
The borders are upholstered in wool and fitted with air vents and handles. The vents let the mattress breathe while the handles make turning and repositioning it a little easier.

Best suited for?
Couples
Each spring sits in its own calico pocket and moves independently, which reduces the ripple you feel when your partner turns over.
Warm sleepers
A wool protector pad and air vents in the borders let the mattress breathe, which helps you stay comfortable if you sleep hot.
Back sleepers
The Firm tension and responsive pocket springs give solid, supportive comfort, which suits anyone who prefers a flat, steady feel rather than sinking in.
Heavier sleepers
Firm tension with 1,326 vanadium steel springs in the 5 foot size gives a solid, supportive feel that should resist sinking under more weight.
Eco-conscious buyers
Natural fillings, wool upholstery on the borders and a wool protector pad mean you get traditional materials rather than foam and synthetics.
This is a Firm tension mattress, so lightweight side sleepers may find it too unyielding on the shoulder and hip. It is also a considerable investment, and if you prefer the contouring hug of memory foam, a traditional pocket sprung feel will disappoint you.
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 Realm mattress?
The Furniture Village listing states this mattress as Firm tension. That suits back and front sleepers, and heavier bodies generally, although lightweight side sleepers may find it a little too solid for comfortable pressure relief at the shoulder.
How many springs does the Vispring Realm have?
The 5 foot size contains 1,326 vanadium steel springs, each with 6 coils and hand-nested in its own calico pocket. Spring counts vary with mattress size, so smaller sizes will contain fewer.
What is the Vispring Realm made of?
Natural materials feature heavily: British fleece wool, bamboo and cotton, alongside vanadium steel springs in calico pockets and felt washers under the hand tufts. Natural fibres breathe better than synthetic foams, which helps if you tend to overheat at night.
Does the Vispring Realm come with a guarantee?
Furniture Village lists a 20-year guarantee on this mattress. That is the retailer's own offer, so if you buy elsewhere, check the terms with that seller before you commit.
How much does the Vispring Realm cost?
It depends on the size you choose, and the price table on this page shows the current price for each size. It comes in UK Single, Double, King and Super King. Furniture Village lists delivery within 28 days, with a paid Premium Delivery Service covering room delivery.
