Product Description

Receive a Free Mattress Protector when you buy any standard size Vispring Mattress or Divan Bed (Single 90cm x 190cm, Double 135cm x 190cm, King 150m x 200cm, Super King 182cm x 200cm & Zipped Super King 2 x 90cm x 200cm). Offer excludes Vispring Promotional Beds and Vispring Recliner Mattresses.

 

The Vispring Dartington Divan Bed is the perfect choice for somebody looking for a firmer feeling, supportive and naturally-filled luxury divan bed, made in the size, tension, fabric, divan height and leg of your choice.

The divan set comprises the Vispring Dartington mattress with the Vispring Prestige Divan Base.  The mattress, the core engine of the bed, features multiple layers of exclusive natural fillings of Platinum Certified British Fleece Wool and cotton, which overlays Vispring’s unique hand-nested vanadium steel pocket springs.  With a diameter of 50mm and over 1500 flexible and durable pocket springs, there is an excellent number of touch points engaging with the body’s frame and adapting to it’s weight to provide a higher level of firm support for exceptional comfort.

The mattress is expertly hand-tufted with felt washers and the 2 rows of hand side-stitching add edge-to-edge support and ensure long-life and comfort. Vispring products have a 30 year guarantee, a testament to the craftsmanship and quality.

The Vispring Prestige Divan Base, the supportive foundation of the bed, is constructed from slow grown FSC accredited, Scandinavian solid timber with glued and screwed joints for added strength.  Each divan base is pocket sprung from edge to edge with natural upholstery layers of platinum certified British fleece wool, cotton and coir.  It is then upholstered in the fabric of your choice, for excellent comfort, support and style.

The quality of Vispring’s pocket springs are one of the key factors that make the brand stand out from other manufacturers.  Since 1901 Vispring have been making their own pocket springs with the finest, new vanadium steel.  The result is an excellent responsive and supportive spring that other manufacturers struggle to match – they might try to surpass on quantity, but they do not match the quality, so the comfort and support of a Vispring mattress cannot be rivaled.  Vispring’s all natural upholstery and traditional craftsmanship are the other factors that truly set them apart and allow them to offer an impressive 30 year guarantee.

Each mattress is available in a choice of tensions: soft, medium and firm.  For King sizes and above we can offer a 1-piece mattress with left and right hand tensions, known as a combination tension mattress.  For Super King sizes and above, we can also offer zipped mattresses, with two individual mattresses in the desired tension, zipped together to create one piece.  This is a great option for accessing tight spaces or to make turning the mattress easier.

Vispring beds are bespoke in every sense of the word, from choosing the size and tension of your mattress through to divan height, fabric, leg and storage options, so please do call our showroom if you’d like to discuss your purchase further so you can be sure you are getting the right specification for you.

*Please note headboard is not included, but available to purchase separately. Complete your bed with a Vispring headboard in the same matching fabric.

snug Comfort Pledge

We want you to be confident with your new purchase and we want you to get it right the first time. This means you’ll be happy straight away, which is what we always strive to achieve. With over 25 years’ experience helping customers choose the right mattress to suit them, we are confident that with a chat over the phone, or a visit to our showroom, we can alleviate most doubts by advising customers on the best Vispring mattress to suit their body shape/weight and their individual sleep preferences.

However, we also appreciate it is a large investment and even with our guidance, this may not always be enough reassurance, which is why we are offering a Comfort Pledge for Vispring Mattresses.

How does it work?

If after sleeping on your new Vispring mattress for a minimum of 30 nights and a maximum of 90 nights from the date of delivery, you decide it isn’t the right Vispring mattress for you, we can offer an exchange of your Vispring mattress for a new spring tension (same Vispring model).

There is a £100 charge to cover this exchange. This is a one-time exchange only and refunds are not permitted. Once exchanged, the Comfort Pledge will end and the original mattress cannot be retained.

Please note, for zipped mattresses, we can only offer an exchange of tension on one of the two mattresses and the mattress cannot be changed to a one piece mattress.

We recommend sleeping on the original mattress for as long as you can up to the upper limit of the 90 days. This is because it takes time to adjust to the feel of a new mattress and if you decide to exchange too soon, you may ultimately make the wrong decision. By all means, please do call us earlier to discuss any concerns.

If you would like to invoke our Comfort Pledge we need you to put this in writing together with your proof of purchase. This Comfort Pledge is only available to the customer that made the original purchase and is only available for mattresses that remain in mainland UK.

This offer does not apply to mattresses which have been damaged through misuse, wilful or accidental damage, neglect or general wear and tear.

Our delivery and assembly service

We provide a 2-man delivery service to the room of choice, as standard, on all large items to customers nationwide, using our in-house team or one of our specialist Delivery Partners. 

We will contact you ahead of the planned delivery to agree a mutually convenient delivery date, most commonly between Monday and Friday although weekends are sometimes possible. The day before the delivery you will receive a 3-hour timed slot, so you know when to stay in to receive your delivery.  On the day of delivery, our delivery team will also endeavour to keep you updated should they run into a traffic jam or get delayed by any unforeseen event. 

Our experienced delivery teams will carry your order to the room of choice (up two flights of stairs - please do let us know if it is any further), where they will unpack the order and remove and recycle any packaging, leaving you free to enjoy your new bed or mattress. For those of you who select our assembly service, the team will also install your bed or headboard so you don’t have to lift a finger.

At the time of placing the order, please do let us know if you have any planned holidays around the delivery period (we can only hold orders for 2 weeks once made, after this storage charges may apply), parking restrictions or difficult access (either inside the property or approaching the property), so we can look into the best solution for you.

Recycling your old bed or mattress

Should you no longer have a need for your old mattress or bed, we can remove and recycle this item for you (on a like-for-like basis) when delivering your new order. There will be a charge of £45 per mattress or £60 per bed for this service.

Access

Please ensure when placing the order that the item will fit into your home and there is sufficient access to your room, for example around a tight bend in your staircase or through a narrow doorway. If you are unsure, then our showroom will be more than happy to discuss the access with you. This way we can do all that we can to ensure the item fits in. We always try our hardest to find a solution.

Frequently Asked Questions

Divan Bases

Which Divan Base will give me the best comfort and support?

A pocket spring divan base will give you the very best comfort and support. If you are looking for a luxurious feel, this is the divan type for you.  This is because each invidivual pocket spring will respond according to the weight it receives ensuring full body support where your body needs it most.

It is the perfect partner to a pocket spring mattress as the mattress and divan work together allowing your shoulders and hips to nestle in to the bed and keep your body aligned.

What is the difference between a Deep Divan Base and a Shallow Divan Base?

A deep divan base is a more traditional, taller divan base which often sits on castors (great for carpet flooring and to be able to easily move the bed) or a wooden foot (recommended if you have wooden floors), whilst a shallow divan base is a more contemporary style and sits off the ground on taller legs.  It gives a bed frame or bedstead appearance.

A deep divan base is normally between 31cm – 35cm high, paired with castors (adding an additional 5-7cm height). A deep divan base allows for storage (drawers, ottoman or hideaway options).

 

 

A shallow divan is normally between 15cm – 17cm in depth, paired with taller legs (available in a range of designs and heights).

 

 

What is a Platform Top Divan Base?

A Platform Top Divan Base is a solid divan base (sometimes with a little padding on the surface, but still solid to touch). This type of divan base will make any sprung mattress feel firmer, compared to a sprung divan base. It is the perfect choice for someone looking for a value for money divan base, that still allows the customer to choose their own fabric, leg and storage options.

What is the difference between a Firm-Edge Divan Base and a Sprung-Edge Divan Base?

A firm-edge divan base means there is timber running around the edge of the divan base giving firm support to the edge of the base.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A sprung-edge divan base has pocket springs running from edge to edge and gives a softer, more comfortable finish to the edge of the bed.

What is a Zip and Link Divan Bed?

A zip and link divan bed is made up of a pair of zipped mattresses and a pair of linked divan bases (joined North/South), which can be separated to create two single (extra long) beds.  This not only gives great flexibility in a guest room, allowing you to cater for guests with one large bed (most commonly a super king size) or to split it in two and offer twin beds.  It is also a firm favourite for customers master bed where access is tight, they are looking for mattresses that are easier to turn or they want two different tensions and to notice as little movement from their partner as possible.

We tend to recommend a zip and link bed in a Super King size and above.  This is because it is made up of two 90cm widths (standard single sizes) or above.  We can offer zip and link beds in a king size but we do like to point out to customers that they then have a compromised sleeping space as each mattress has a width of 75cm, which is less than a standard single size a child sleeps on.

What are the storage options in a divan bed?

At snuginteriors we can offer the following divan bed storage options:

- Drawer Storage - options include: 

  • 2 x standard drawers, 4 x standard drawers, 2 x continental + 2 standard drawers,1 x large end drawer (Vispring double and king size divan bases only)

- Hideaway Storage - maximum storage at the most cost-effective price. Store items across the entire width and length of your divan whilst concealing them behind an upholstered valance, in the fabric of your choice.


- Ottoman Storage - the ultimate storage solution offering maximum storage space which is easily accessible from a bird’s eye view thanks to gas struts which make it easy to lift the 'lid' of the bed up.
