Ticking
The outer cover is made from soft to the touch, finest quality ticking. This is the surface you'll actually feel through your sheets, so the quality here matters more than it might seem.
Fillings
The fillings include British fleece wool and cotton, horsetail and real Shetland wool. Natural fibres like these breathe and wick away moisture, which means a drier, more temperature-stable feel through the night.
Springs
The 5 foot size contains 2,112 vanadium steel springs with a wool protector pad, each spring with 6 coils and hand-nested in its own calico pocket. Individually pocketed springs move independently, so the mattress contours to your shape and limits motion transfer.
Borders
The wool-upholstered borders include air vents and handles. The vents help the natural fillings breathe, and the handles make turning this substantial mattress a little easier.

Key benefits
- A full 90cm each: Two people sharing get 90cm each, which means a restless partner can roll over without ending up on your side of the bed.
- 15cm more each than a UK king: The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king at the same length, so each sleeper gains 15cm without the bed getting any longer.
- Distance plus independent springs: Individually pocketed springs limit how far movement travels, and the extra width puts more mattress between you, so the two work together for light sleepers.
- Room for small visitors: When a child wanders in during the night, the UK super king leaves space for two adults and a small visitor without anyone clinging to the edge.
- In proportion with a large bedroom: In a period property or a generous master bedroom, a UK king can look a little lost, while the UK super king fills the wall more naturally.
- Handles for a big mattress: The wool-upholstered borders have handles, which helps when you turn a mattress this wide, although you'll still want a second person to help.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a genuinely restless partner and want real distance between you, your children or a large dog end up in the bed most nights, or your bedroom is large enough that a smaller bed would look undersized against the wall.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than our suggested 3m x 2.9m, or you rarely share the bed. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

FAQ's
Vispring Superb UK super king or UK king: which should I choose?
The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king, and both are the same length. That gives each of two sleepers 15cm more, at 90cm each against 75cm each on the UK king. If you share with a restless partner or children often join you, the UK super king is the better fit. Otherwise the UK king needs less room.
Is a super king Vispring Superb good for a restless partner?
Yes, and the width does a lot of the work here. At 90cm each, a partner who turns over a lot has more space to do it without reaching you. The calico-pocketed springs also move independently, so less of that movement travels across the mattress. A medium tension suits most sleepers, although you may prefer the firmer variant if you like a distinctly firm feel.
Can two adults, a child and a dog share a Vispring Superb super king?
For a child who arrives in the night, the UK super king usually leaves everyone a workable share. A large dog sleeping on the bed every night is a bigger ask, and a dog and a child together will make the bed feel crowded. The natural wool and cotton fillings wick moisture, which helps the bed stay drier with extra bodies in it.
Will a Vispring Superb super king fit in a loft conversion bedroom?
It can, but the sloped ceiling usually decides which wall the bed goes on, because you need standing height at the sides and the foot. The mattress is 180 x 200cm, and we suggest a room of at least 3m x 2.9m, with around 3.5m x 3.2m feeling comfortable. Measure the usable floor area at full head height, not the total footprint.
What should I check before ordering the Vispring Superb in a UK super king?
Check how the bedroom door swings and whether the mattress can get round tight landing turns, because a 6ft-wide mattress is hard to angle. Vispring doesn't publish a weight for this mattress, so ask the retailer. You'll also need super king sheets and a 260 x 220cm duvet.
