In a UK Double, the Vispring Tiara Superb sits firmly in luxury territory, so this is a considered purchase rather than an impulse one. It's listed as Medium, although Vispring offers it in Soft, Medium, Firm and Extra Firm tensions, which means you can match the feel to your build and sleeping position. The 23cm base depth comes with around 6cm of doming on top, giving it a plumper profile than the number alone suggests.

Why should you choose this mattress?
Choose the Tiara Superb if you want traditional craftsmanship over foam and gel. The two-layer construction uses 2,244 hand-nested vanadium steel pocket springs in the 150 x 200cm size, sewn into calico pockets, which means each spring moves independently and responds to your body rather than pushing back as one unit. Natural fillings such as Shetland wool and horsetail breathe far better than synthetic foams, a genuine help if you sleep hot. The choice of four tensions lets couples or particular sleepers get the feel right at the point of order. Yes, the price is steep, but the materials and hand-finished construction are the sort you rarely see at any level of the market.
Key features & layer details
Upholstery - Top Layer
A blend of real Shetland wool and cotton, plus hand-teased horsetail blended with more Shetland wool, all encased in high-quality ticking. Wool and horsetail regulate temperature and wick moisture naturally, which means a drier, cooler feel through the night than foam comfort layers tend to give.
Springs
A two-layer hand-nested calico pocket spring construction, with 2,244 vanadium steel pocket springs in the 150 x 200cm size. Two layers of springs working together means finer, more graduated support, so the mattress contours to your shape while keeping your spine level.
Borders
The borders are upholstered with protective coir and wool, finished with three rows of hand side-stitching, horizontal handles and air vents. Side-stitching anchors the outer springs to the border, which means firmer edge support and less roll-off feeling when you sleep near the side.

Best suited for?
Warm sleepers
Shetland wool and horsetail fillings regulate temperature and wick moisture naturally, which means a drier, cooler feel through the night than foam comfort layers tend to give.
Couples
Four tension options let partners choose the feel at the point of order, while independently moving pocket springs respond to each person rather than pushing back as one unit.
Side sleepers
Two layers of hand-nested pocket springs give finer, more graduated support, so the mattress contours to your shoulders and hips while keeping your spine level.
Combination sleepers
Three rows of hand side-stitching anchor the outer springs to the border, giving firmer edge support and less roll-off feeling as you move around near the side.
This is a poor fit for anyone on a modest budget, as it's a serious outlay. It's also currently listed in one size only, so if you need a King or Single you may struggle. And if you prefer the contouring hug of memory foam, a traditional sprung feel will seem quite different.
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 is the Vispring Tiara Superb made of?
It combines natural fillings, real Shetland wool, cotton and hand-teased horsetail, over a two-layer construction of hand-nested vanadium steel pocket springs in calico pockets. The borders are upholstered with protective coir and wool, with three rows of hand side-stitching.
How firm is the Vispring Tiara Superb?
It's catalogued as Medium, but Vispring makes it in four tensions: Soft, Medium, Firm and Extra Firm. That means you can choose the feel that suits your weight and sleeping position, which is a real advantage over one-feel mattresses. Lighter sleepers often suit softer tensions, heavier sleepers firmer ones.
How deep is the Vispring Tiara Superb mattress?
The base depth is 23cm, with around 6cm of doming on top (give or take 2cm), so the finished mattress sits noticeably plumper than the base figure suggests. Worth bearing in mind if you're buying fitted sheets.
How much does the Vispring Tiara Superb cost?
It comes in UK Double only, and the price table on this page shows the current price. It's a lot to spend. The cost reflects hand-nested calico springs, hand side-stitching and natural fillings such as horsetail and Shetland wool, materials and techniques that are slow and expensive to produce.
Does the Vispring Tiara Superb come with a trial or guarantee?
Vispring's product page doesn't state a trial period, guarantee length or delivery terms for this mattress, so check directly with your chosen retailer before ordering. Given the price, it's sensible to confirm returns terms in writing.
