Layer Details
- Bonded upholstery layer. Bonded British fleece wool and cotton, which means the fibres are held together for consistent support and stability. This is the layer closest to you, so you feel its evenness night after night.
- Layered filling. A second layer of British fleece wool and cotton. Wool wicks moisture and regulates temperature naturally, so hot sleepers should find it slightly more forgiving than synthetic fillings.
- Spring system. Hand-nested calico pocket springs in a single layer, with 1,254 springs in the 150 x 200cm size. Each spring works independently, which means less motion transfer to a partner and support that follows your shape.
Layer details from vispring.com product page, September 2026.
- 90cm each for two: Each of you gets 90cm of width, which means a partner who tosses about is far less likely to end up on your side of the bed.
- Independent springs over a wider surface: Each spring sits in its own calico pocket and moves on its own, so across a UK super king a partner's restlessness travels even less before it fades.
- Space for small visitors: When a child arrives at 3am or the dog settles at the foot, the UK super king still leaves both adults a proper share rather than a narrow strip.
- Wool across a larger surface: With more of you and your family in one bed, the breathable wool and cotton fillings help keep things from turning stuffy by morning.
- Proportioned for bigger rooms: In a period bedroom or large master where a UK king can look a little lost, the UK super king fills the space properly.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a genuinely restless partner and want 90cm each, or children and dogs regularly join you overnight, and your bedroom comfortably clears our suggested 3m x 2.9m.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom falls short of our suggested 3m x 2.9m minimum. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m and still gives 75cm each.

Is a Vispring super king good if my partner is a restless sleeper?
It is the strongest option in this range for that problem. The UK super king gives 90cm each, and the hand-nested pocket springs work independently, which limits how much movement travels across the bed. Distance does most of the work here. Bear in mind the medium firm feel, which lightweight side sleepers may find slightly unyielding.
Vispring Traditional Bedstead super king vs king: how much more space do you get?
The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king, and both are the same length. For two sharing, the UK king gives 75cm each, so the UK super king gives 15cm more each. The trade off is room size: we suggest at least 3m x 2.9m for the UK super king and 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king.
Is a super king worth it over a double for a couple?
If you find a double cramped, yes. The UK super king is 45cm wider and 10cm longer than the UK double. A UK double gives 67.5cm each, so the UK super king gives 22.5cm more each. It needs a much bigger room, though: we suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for the UK double against 3m x 2.9m here.
Is a UK super king big enough when the kids and dog get in bed?
It is the best size in this range for a shared family bed. At 180cm wide, a child tucked in the middle or a large dog at the foot leaves both adults usable space, which a UK king or UK double struggles to do. Before you buy, check your door swing and landing turns, because this is a wide mattress to carry.
Will a Vispring super king fit a loft conversion bedroom?
Often it will, but the sloping ceiling usually decides which wall the bed goes on, and you need the full 3m x 2.9m we suggest on usable floor, not under the slope. Measure where you can stand comfortably at both sides of the bed. If the numbers are tight, the UK king needs at least 2.7m x 2.9m.
