Layer Details
- Top upholstery. Bonded British fleece wool and cotton, with South American horsetail blended with British fleece wool. Horsetail is naturally resilient, which means the surface springs back rather than developing lasting body impressions, while the wool and cotton keep it breathable.
- Middle upholstery. Layered Real Shetland wool and cotton. This cushions the transition between the soft top layers and the spring unit, and wool's temperature-regulating quality helps if you tend to sleep warm.
- Spring system. A two layer hand-nested calico pocket spring construction with 2,112 springs in the 150 x 200cm size. Two tiers of springs mean the upper layer responds to smaller movements while the lower layer handles deeper support, which you feel as steady, even pressure relief.
Layer details from vispring.com product page, September 2026.
- 7.5cm more each than a UK double: The UK king gives you 75cm each against 67.5cm on a UK double, which means a little more clearance between you before shoulders and elbows meet.
- Room to stay settled when your partner moves: Each calico-pocketed spring moves on its own, and with 75cm each you have space to lie undisturbed while an early riser climbs out on the other side.
- Extra length for taller sleepers: At 200cm long, or 6ft 6in, the UK king is 10cm longer than a UK double, so taller sleepers can stretch out with their feet still on the mattress.
- 2,112 springs in this size: Vispring quotes 2,112 springs for the 150 x 200cm size, which means dense, independent support across the full width you share.
- Fits rooms a UK super king won't: We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king against 3m x 2.9m for the UK super king, which matters in a master bedroom already lined with fitted wardrobes.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and a UK double has started to feel narrow, one of you wakes and leaves hours before the other, or one of you is tall enough that length matters as much as width.
Consider another size if...
Your room is under our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m, or 75cm each still feels tight. We'd recommend the UK double for a smaller room (allow 2.6m x 2.8m), or the UK super king for more width (allow 3m x 2.9m).

Will I feel my partner move on a Vispring Superb Bedstead UK king?
Less than on a smaller size, because two things help at once. The springs are hand-nested in individual calico pockets, so movement on one side stays largely local. The UK king also gives you 75cm each rather than 67.5cm on a UK double, which puts a little more distance between you and a restless or early-rising partner.
Is the Vispring Superb UK king long enough for someone over six foot?
The UK king is 200cm long, or 6ft 6in, which is 10cm longer than the UK double. The UK super king is exactly the same length. So if length is your main reason for upgrading, the UK king gives you the full extra length without asking for a bigger bedroom.
Vispring Superb Bedstead UK king or UK super king for a couple?
The UK super king gives 90cm each, 15cm more per person than the UK king, but we suggest at least 3m x 2.9m for it. If your room is closer to 2.7m x 2.9m, or extra length matters more to you than extra width, the UK king is the more practical choice.
How much space does a Vispring Superb Bedstead UK king need in the bedroom?
The mattress measures 150 x 200cm, and we suggest a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m, with 3.2m x 3.2m comfortable. New build master bedrooms can feel smaller once fitted wardrobes go in, so measure the clear floor space left after furniture rather than relying on the floor plan.
Is a UK king Vispring Superb a good size during pregnancy?
The extra width helps when you're propping pillows and shifting position through the night. The UK king gives 75cm each, 7.5cm more than a UK double, and the firm, consistent feel Vispring describes gives you a steady surface to push up from. Lightweight side sleepers may want to choose a softer spring tension.
