In the 5 foot size, the Vispring Superb contains 2112 vanadium steel springs, each hand-nested in its own calico pocket, which means the springs respond to your body individually rather than moving as one block. It's available in soft, medium or firm comfort levels, so you can match the tension to your build and sleeping position. It's a serious outlay, but you're paying for hand-nested springs and entirely natural fillings rather than foam and synthetics.

Why should you choose this mattress?
This is a mattress for people who want traditional craftsmanship and natural materials, and are prepared to pay for both. The fillings, wool, cotton and horsetail, breathe far better than foam, which means it should sleep noticeably cooler if you tend to overheat at night. The calico-pocketed springs move independently, so a restless partner is less likely to disturb you. You can choose soft, medium or firm tension rather than settling for one house feel. Furniture Village, which lists this model, backs it with a 20-year guarantee, a long span that reflects how these mattresses are built to last. The price is high, but the construction justifies it better than most.
Key features & layer details
Ticking
The outer cover is made from soft, finest quality ticking. It's the surface you'll actually feel through your sheets, so the softness matters more than it might sound.
Fillings
Beneath the cover sit British fleece wool, cotton, horsetail and real Shetland wool. These natural fibres wick moisture and regulate temperature, which means less of the clammy warmth you can get with foam layers.
Springs
The 5 foot size holds 2112 vanadium steel springs, each with 6 coils, hand-nested in calico pockets and topped with a wool protector pad. Because each spring works independently, the mattress contours to your shape and limits movement transferring across the bed.
Borders
The wool-upholstered borders include air vents and handles. The vents help the natural fillings breathe, and the handles make turning the mattress far less of a struggle.

Best suited for?
Warm sleepers
Wool, cotton and horsetail fillings wick moisture and regulate temperature, which means you should feel less of the clammy heat that foam layers can trap.
Couples
Each spring sits in its own calico pocket and moves independently, which means a restless partner is less likely to disturb you across the bed.
Eco-conscious buyers
Entirely natural fillings such as British fleece wool, cotton and real Shetland wool are used instead of foam and synthetics, so the materials stay traditional and natural.
Side sleepers
Soft, medium or firm tension options let you match the mattress to your build, while individually working springs contour to your shape.
Combination sleepers
Because the springs respond individually and the tension comes in three levels, the mattress can follow your shape as you change position through the night.
If your budget sits anywhere near the mainstream, this isn't the mattress for you: it costs more than many people spend on a whole bedroom. It's also unavailable in sizes smaller than a UK Double, and anyone wanting the pressure-cradling feel of memory foam should 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
What sizes does the Vispring Superb come in?
It's available in UK Double, UK King, UK Super King and UK Grand Super King. There's no single size, so it won't suit a child's room or a small guest bed.
How firm is the Vispring Superb mattress?
It's available in soft, medium or firm comfort levels, so you choose the tension when you order. As a rough guide, lighter sleepers and side sleepers usually get on better with softer tensions, while heavier builds tend to prefer firm.
How many springs does the Vispring Superb have?
The 5 foot size contains 2112 vanadium steel springs, each with 6 coils, hand-nested in individual calico pockets. Nesting each spring in its own pocket means they compress independently, so the mattress follows your shape closely.
Does the Vispring Superb come with a guarantee?
Furniture Village, which lists this mattress, states a 20-year guarantee. That's the retailer's stated term, so if you're buying elsewhere it's worth confirming the guarantee with that seller before you order.
How long does delivery take for the Vispring Superb?
Furniture Village lists delivery within 28 days, with a paid Premium Delivery Service for mattresses. These are that retailer's terms, so timings and charges may differ if you buy from another stockist.
