Frequently asked questions
What makes the Vispring Herald Superb different from other mattresses?
It uses three rows of hand-nested calico pocket springs with Vanadium steel, plus natural fibre upholstery of wool and cotton, and four tension options to tailor firmness. In king size, there’s a split option so partners can choose different feels without compromise.
How do I choose the right tension for this mattress?
There are four options—Soft, Medium, Firm, and Extra Firm—available at order. For king sizes, you can select split firmness so each sleeper gets a preferred feel.
What materials are used in the upholstery and what do they do?
The layers above the springs are natural fibres: bonded British fleece wool and cotton, plus blended wool and cotton. Wool helps regulate temperature by absorbing and releasing moisture, while cotton provides a breathable base to keep the filling from compressing unevenly.
How is the mattress built to ensure long-lasting support?
The springs are individually hand-nested in calico pockets, each coil moving independently to prevent mutual interference. The border is reinforced with wool and two rows of hand side-stitching, and the mattress is hand-tufted to maintain density and surface stability over time.
What sizes and setup should first-time buyers know about?
The Herald Superb is available in standard sizes with a king option that can be split for firmness. The king construction uses 1,716 Vanadium steel springs in a single king configuration for shared support without compromise.
The Herald Superb elevates the Vispring collection by deepening the spring architecture to three rows of hand-nested calico pocket springs, while maintaining a deliberately clean upholstery. This design makes tension choice the primary differentiator, delivering precise support without adding filling weight. In King size, 1,716 individually nested Vanadium steel springs move independently, ensuring sleepers exert no mechanical influence on one another while offering four distinct tension options: Soft, Medium, Firm, and Extra Firm; King sizes can also be specified in split firmness for partners with different preferences.
The upholstery layers use natural fibres exclusively—bonded British fleece wool and cotton, and blended wool and cotton—providing passive temperature regulation and lasting loft without synthetic reinforcement. Wool helps manage moisture and warmth, while cotton ensures a breathable base that maintains even pressure over time. The border features protective wool, two rows of hand side-stitching for perimeter integrity, and hand-tufting with felt washers to maintain consistent density. Horizontal handles and perimeter air vents enhance airflow as the sleeper moves, reinforcing the natural benefits of the wool-filled system.
