Frequently asked questions
Who would get the most benefit from the Vispring Sublime Superb, and who might prefer something lighter?
This mattress suits sleepers who value a buoyant, multi-layer feel with targeted support from a two-layer pocket spring system and a rich blend of natural fillings. It may feel firmer and more supportive to those who prefer a traditional, durable bed without a soft top layer.
What materials is it made from and how does that affect daily use?
It uses a viscose and cotton ticking for airflow, British fleece wool for immediate cushioning, a horsetail and Real Shetland Wool filling blend for buoyancy and regulation, plus silk, mohair and organic cotton. These layers work together to provide firmness at the base with soft, responsive comfort, and help manage moisture and temperature.
Is this mattress suitable for warm climates or hot sleepers?
Yes. The ticking and natural fillings are designed to promote airflow and moisture wicking, helping to keep the sleeping surface cool while maintaining warmth where desired.
What should I know about its construction before buying?
It features a two-layer pocket spring system with 3,496 Vanadium steel springs in King size, hand-nested calico construction, and four rows of hand side-stitching to preserve edge-to-edge sleep. Wool tufts anchor fillings to prevent migration and maintain the original feel over time.
How does the edge-to-edge sleep surface and movement feel work here?
The two-layer pocket springs respond to movement independently, helping limit roll-between and preserve edge support, while hand-tied woollen tufts keep the interior layers in place for long-term stability.
Compared with typical innerspring mattresses, what makes this one different?
It combines a high-count, hand-constructed pocket spring system with a layered natural filling blend, including horsetail and Shetland Wool, silk and mohair, all encased in a moisture-wicking viscose-cotton cover, for a distinctive balance of buoyancy, softness, and thermal regulation.
The sleep surface is covered in a viscose and cotton ticking: viscose draws moisture away from the body, cotton allows air to circulate, and together they keep the surface cool without the need for synthetic materials. Beneath the cover, British fleece wool provides an immediate, responsive cushion that adjusts to body weight without bottoming out. The horsetail and Real Shetland Wool blend that follows works differently — horsetail is coarse and springy by nature, giving the filling layer a buoyancy that neither wool alone nor synthetic foam can replicate, while the Shetland wool moderates its texture and adds further thermal regulation. Silk and mohair sit within the upholstery stack as well, both fine-fibred materials that contribute softness and warmth retention in proportion. Organic cotton rounds out the filling, lending a firm, stable base to the upholstery layers above it.
The spring system is a two-layer, hand-nested calico pocket construction using Vanadium steel: 3,496 springs in a King size respond individually to movement, so pressure at one point does not transfer across the mattress. Four rows of hand side-stitching hold the border firm and square, maintaining the full sleep surface to the edge. Hand-tied woollen tufts drawn through the full depth of the mattress anchor each filling layer in place, preventing migration and preserving the original feel of the upholstery over time.
