Layer Details
Top upholstery
Bonded British fleece wool and cotton sit alongside hand-teased South American horsetail, Real Shetland wool and naturally breathable bamboo. Together these give a soft, dry surface feel with genuine airflow, which means less overheating through the night.
Spring system
A two-layer, hand-nested calico pocket spring construction with 2,664 vanadium steel pocket springs in the 150 x 200cm size. Each spring moves independently, so you feel support where your body needs it and less disturbance from a partner.
Support layer
Blended Real Shetland wool and cotton form the base layer. This cushions the spring unit and adds a little more of that natural, breathable padding beneath you.

Key benefits
- Real distance from a restless partner: You get 90cm each for two people sharing, which means a partner who turns all night is further away than any comfort layer alone could manage.
- Space when the family piles in: The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king, so a small child or a dog can settle in the middle without pushing either adult to the edge.
- Independent springs across a wide surface: The springs move independently, so on a bed this wide one sleeper shifting is felt only a little, if at all, on the far side.
- Proportioned for a large room: In a big master bedroom or a period property with high ceilings, the UK super king fills the space properly where a UK king can look slightly lost.
- Full length for taller sleepers: The UK super king matches the UK king at 200cm long and is 10cm longer than the UK double, so feet stay on the mattress.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a genuinely restless partner and want real distance between you, or children and dogs regularly end up in your bed by morning. It also suits you if you have a large master bedroom that comfortably clears our suggested 3m x 2.9m.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom falls short of our suggested 3m x 2.9m, or nobody else ever joins you in bed. We'd recommend the UK king instead, for which we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

FAQ's
Is the Vispring Distinction super king big enough for two adults and a child?
For occasional night visits, yes. The UK super king gives 90cm each for two people sharing, so a small child can settle between you without either adult ending up on the edge. If a child sleeps with you every night as they grow, expect it to feel snugger, although it remains the widest mainstream UK size.
Vispring Distinction super king or king for a restless partner?
If your partner's movement is the main problem, the UK super king is the better choice. It gives 15cm more each than the UK king, and the two are the same length, so the entire difference goes into the gap between you. The independent pocket springs help too, but at this level of disturbance, distance matters more.
What size bedroom do I need for a UK super king Vispring Distinction?
We suggest at least 3m x 2.9m, and around 3.5m x 3.2m feels right once you add bedside tables and space to walk round. In a loft conversion, measure where the ceiling is at full height, because the slope usually decides which wall the headboard goes against.
Can a large dog share a Vispring Distinction super king with two people?
More comfortably than on any smaller size of this mattress. The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king, which leaves room for a dog at the foot or between you. With a big dog every night, two adults will still give up some of their 90cm each, so a room that allows the full width helps.
How much longer is the Vispring Distinction super king than the double?
The UK super king is 10cm longer than the UK double, at 200cm against 190cm, and 45cm wider. If you're tall and moving up from a UK double, that extra length means your feet stay on the mattress. It also gives 22.5cm more each for two people sharing.
