Layer Details
- Cover. A fine quality ticking encases the mattress. It is the finishing layer you will feel through your sheet.
- Fillings. British fleece wool sits alongside hand-teased horsetail blended with Devonshire wool. These natural fibres breathe well, which means less heat build-up overnight than you would get from synthetic foams.
- Springs. The king size holds 2,030 vanadium steel, six-turn pocket springs in calico pockets. Each spring moves independently, so you feel support where you need it and less disturbance from a partner's movement.

- Real distance from a restless partner: You each get 90cm, which means a partner's turning and fidgeting reaches your side far less often.
- Wider than a UK king, no longer: You get 15cm more each than on the UK king at the same 200cm length, so the extra space goes into width rather than further across the floor.
- Two feels in one bed: Split tension is offered on the UK super king, so a lighter partner can choose Medium while you sleep on Firm or Extra Firm.
- Cooler with extra bodies aboard: The horsetail and wool fillings breathe well, which helps when a child or dog adds body heat to the middle of the bed.
- In proportion in a big room: In a period bedroom or a generous master, the 6ft width sits comfortably in the space, where a UK king can look slightly lost.
This size suits you if...
You share with someone who turns, kicks or gets up often and you want genuine space between you, a child or a large dog regularly joins you overnight, or your bedroom comfortably clears 3m x 2.9m and anything smaller would look undersized.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is under our suggested 3m x 2.9m, or door swing and bedside space are already tight. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

Can you get split tension on a Vispring Kingsbridge super king?
Yes. Split tension is offered on the UK super king and the UK king, so each half can have a different tension from Soft, Medium, Firm or Extra Firm. It suits couples whose builds differ, because neither of you has to settle on a feel that only suits the other.
How much room does each person get on a Vispring Kingsbridge super king?
Two people sharing get 90cm each. That is 15cm more each than the UK king and 22.5cm more each than the UK double. If your partner sprawls or turns a lot, that extra width does more to stop you being woken than any change of tension.
Is the Kingsbridge super king worth it over the UK king?
It is worth it if you have the floor space and share with a restless sleeper, a child or a dog. The UK super king is 30cm wider and the same length. If your room is closer to 2.7m x 2.9m than 3m x 2.9m, the UK king will leave you more space to move around the bed.
Can a family with children or a dog share a Vispring super king?
It is the most practical size of this mattress for a shared family bed, with 180cm of width to divide up. The pocket springs move independently, so a child climbing in disturbs you less, and the natural fillings breathe well when extra bodies warm up the middle.
Will a Vispring Kingsbridge super king fit in a loft conversion bedroom?
It can, but check the usable floor rather than the total. We suggest at least 3m x 2.9m, and in a loft the sloping ceiling usually decides which wall the headboard goes against. Measure where you can stand upright on both sides, because you will need to reach the bed at full height.
