  • One reviewer got a Herald Superb as a replacement for a Vispring that dipped on both sides and said it felt much more stable, though it was early days.

Think about

  • Sold through Vispring stores and retailers; US sizes run half an inch short of the usual 75″/80″ lengths (e.g. Queen 60 × 79.5″), though Vispring says it can make any size.
  • A reviewer said their Herald Superb began causing aches and pains after about 10 years, and getting a resolution took back-and-forth between retailer and Vispring.
