Showing 0 of 41 reviews
The Artisan Bespoke 004 has a very similar feel and make up when compared to the Vispring Regal Superb.
The generous upholstery layers of Blended British Fleece Wool & Cotton followed by Bamboo, 1400GSM total, gives a breathable and flexible Comfort Layer to this mattress. Allowing you to stay warmer during the colder months and cooler during the summer due to the high wicking properties of this mattress.
The 1200GSM of Pure Horsetail acts as a secondary spring support layer giving the medium feel to the mattress.
1600 Calico Encased Vanadium Coated Pocket Springs – in 2 tension choices – provide support for endless nights of perfect sleep.
Two rows genuine Hand Side Stitching & Hand Tufted.
The Woven mattress cover is completely Chemical-Free using a Natural plant-based fire retardancy protection.

FAQs
At John Ryan By Design, we pride ourselves on offering not only amazing mattresses, but also straight-talking, quality information about the world of mattresses. You might say that we’re obsessed with mattresses, and because of that our in-house team of experts are always on hand to answer your questions, and provide you with a wide range of advice and guidance.
However, when you’ve been doing this for as long as we have, you tend to notice that some questions get asked very regularly. We’ve therefore listened to what you need to know, and have put together a growing series of FAQs to help you to quickly find the answers you need!
No, and no showroom or retailer sells our products. This is part of the reason why our prices can be so competitive: our internet-based company model allows us to avoid passing the excessive costs of other retailers on to our customers. Most staff within showrooms are also not bed experts (unlike our own in-house team). Sadly, such staff probably wouldn’t understand mattress manufacture to the extent that they could reliably answer your questions. To give you confidence in our way of doing things, our 60-day “love it or return it” guarantee offers the ability to return a mattress that doesn’t suit you for a full refund, or you can perform a one-time exchange and swap to an alternative model. You can visit our guarantee page for more information, or our article about buying a mattress online to see just why our approach actually benefits you!
From the time you place your order, there is a 4 week average lead time until delivery for most of our mattress models. This is because all of our mattresses, bases and headboards are handmade to order especially for you! You can visit our delivery page for more information.

If you take advantage of this, please do note that exercising our 60-day “love it or return it” guarantee would require you to return your purchase to us at your own cost.

Good experience with John Ryan
The company were very helpful prior to purchase and delivery was seamless. The mattress is extremely comfortable and the quality as described.
Janet
Couldn’t be happier! I have been using John Ryan for about a decade, various house moves have meant I have purchased and used 3 different models. I started with the Origins 500 which whilst miles better than other mid-range mattress I previously used, was a little too firm (quite ‘bouncy’ due to the poly). I am also a hot sleeper and I found I still woke up feeling a little clammy. I then upgraded to an Artisan Naturals – perfect in every way, temperature issues and back pain finally resolved! I then moved house again and had developed a little knee and hip pain over the years. I purchased an Artisan Bespoke 004 in September at an 20% category B discount and I swear if I do go to sleep with pain, it seems to be miraculously cured in my sleep! I never want to get out of bed again! 🙂

John and Ryan delivered my original bed personally!
I bought my original bed from John and Ryan in the late 1990’s.
I had the pleasure to meet them both in person as they made the delivery themselves.
It’s not surprising to see how much there company has grown as the customer service is still amazing and the mattresses are still made with the same care and the quality is still amazing. Keep up the good work guys. I can’t wait to see where you are in another 10 years!

Vispring bedstead Supreme matched!
Have to say we had some challenges because we have 3 Vispring mattresses in the house and had just ordered a bigger bed so this was our first John Ryan experience. We were trying to match the firmness and the advice was the Artisan Bespoke 004 is the closest in construction to the Vi Spring Bedstead Supreme. It was delivered super fast but alas the mattress had too much give. We put this to Michaela and she suggested to go for the Artisan Bespoke which feels a bit firmer because of the upholstery layers. Confirm this is the case and a better match for a Vispring Bedstead Supreme medium tension! Service and communication was absolutely superb throughout. Thank you Michaela!

Still getting used to my mattress I was…
Still getting used to my mattress I was told it would take getting used to. I am a spinal stenosis sufferer and with this mattress I have more good nights than bad. Very happy with the mattress and the service. Thank you

The service from Ian at John Ryan felt personalised and was first class.
The service from Ian at John Ryan felt personalised and was first class. Ian answered my numerous questions patiently without referring me to an online Q&A. The advice on which would be the most suitable mattress for myself and my husband was practical no nonsense. It was reassuring to receive follow up calls ‘after’ the order had been placed. Delivery of the mattress was prompt and very well co-ordinated. We both love the mattress for the quality and comfort and natural materials. JR mattress was definitely worth the price and feels very high end, the service exceeded any High Street chain.

Love our zippered super king…
Love our zippered super king mattresses. Would like handles sewn on on each end (not just sides). And zips on both sides too (for maximum rotation/turning potential). But these are tiny quibbles !! Quality and service both excellent.

Artisan Bespoke 004, King size, zip and link, medium tension
I was nervous about buying on-line, with no opportunity to try out, but I had several conversations with staff before making the order, and they were all very helpful. The John Ryan website is also very informative.
I was keen to have good motion isolation, as my wife fidgets, so we went for the zip and link option. The mattresses are deep and heavy, so, as well as providing good motion isolation, the zip and link option makes them easier to turn. I would think turning a normal king size mattress must be quite difficult.
The bed and mattress arrived ahead of time, all in perfect condition. We have had the bed for a couple of months now. It is extremely comfortable and luxurious. For us, medium tension is just right, firm enough, but you also sink in a little bit to give that touch of luxury. Overall, we could not be more pleased and we would thoroughly recommend John Ryan. They are not cheap, but you get what you pay for!

Decided to research buying a new bed
Decided to research buying a new bed, as over the years my purchases left me feeling I got it wrong again. So came across John Ryan by design and asked plenty of questions. The help was brilliant asking questions about my health, my sleep habits and type of bed I was using. After reading decided to go ahead with purchasing a bed, the cost was alot more than I had allocated to spend on a bed, I was not disappointed. My bed arrived beginning of February and after 7 weeks of sleeping on it, I can honestly say it’s been an absolute dream. The delivery was excellent and the guys put it together and adjusted it to where I wanted it placed. Giving me the lowdown on looking after it. Would highly recommend them to anyone. The extra money was well worth it. Thank you to John Ryan by design on a wonderful bed.

Thoroughly satisfied
Really helpful staff advised us on which mattress to go for. We have been sleeping on it for over a month and couldn’t be happier so far. We placed the order online following a conversation with them a few weeks earlier, even after I had placed the order they called up just to check our requirements before formally accepting the order, she even remembered us.
So much better than the mattress we replaced, and they talked my wife out of getting a firm mattress, which she previously thought she needed, but John Ryan by design actually corrected her on this. We had tried the vispring mattresses in a store nearby and I would say that the quality does seem very comparable even though the John Ryan mattresses were half the price.
Keith
Superb Mattress
We are absolutely delighted with our new mattress!
It may seem strange buying a mattress online without seeing it or feeling it however the level of information on the John Ryan website, the questionnaire and the telephone follow-up when we placed the order gave us confidence in the process.
The mattress was comfortable on the very first night and we both woke up without backache for the first time in ages. We thoroughly recommend John Ryan for their product and their customer service.
Jane
Highly recommended
A phone call with the team at John Ryan helped decide which product to purchase with clear, simple advice. We ended up purchasing an Artisan Bespoke 004 Mattress. We were advised there may be a period of adjustment moving from a memory foam mattress however the mattress was extremely comfortable from the first night. Highly recommended.
Ian
Delighted with new artisan bespoke bed
Delighted with new artisan bespoke 004 bed. Had very helpful advice before buying and recommended mattress is exactly what I wads looking for. After a month it is very comfortable and supportive.
Delivery was ahead of schedule, arrived on time and delivery men were quick and thorough.
John
The website explains how they make their mattresses and the different types very well. Ordering was easy and we received a helpful follow up call.
We were kept informed of progress and the delivery date which was 3 weeks later. The delivery men were helpful and careful delivering the mattress and collecting our old mattress.
Denise
Great product!
Definitely recommend the company.
Great service

We ordered 2 Artisan bespoke 04 king beds and 2 single Origins 1500 mattresses for our holiday let. John Ryan were excellent in their advice when deciding what to buy and incredibly helpful with timing of the order and delivery. The delivery went very smoothly. The beds and mattresses themselves are superb. So good in fact that my parents who have been through several beds, without finding something they like, are going to buy one, having slept on one of the king beds for a few nights and loving it.
We had high expectations after reading material on the website, but these have been exceeded.
Steve
From my first phone call I knew I was in good hands. John Ryan really know all there is to know about beds and mattresses.
We have now got a really comfortable mattress which is top quality and is exactly what we asked for.
Knowing that we could return the mattress if we weren’t happy took the stress away from buying online.
Highly recommended

Product delivered on time and without fuss. product fine.

Fantastic company
Picked a mattress and they called to go over our choice. Advised us on another saying it was best for our needs saving us 500.00
Kane and Able who delivered the mattress were excellent and helpful.
I am in love with my mattress.
Catherine
Life-changing
One of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept on, and that includes all the good hotels. I ordered an Artisan Luxury mattress with an Artisan base, and the mattress turned out to be a bit too soft for my back. I called John Ryan, they immediately recommended replacing it with Artisan Bespoke 004, and delivered the replacement within three weeks. And then something wonderful happened. I sleep all night and wake up an hour earlier, well-rested, my back and knees feel great, the blood circulation has improved. The delivery guys were lovely, too. Thank you so much!
Polina
Really comfortable mattress
We ordered a king mattress during lockdown: we found we could readily speak to people (when they were not in, left a message with someone, and they did phone back promptly. Helpful in choosing a mattress and after we ordered, they phoned back, saying that had received the order, would we like to change it and explaining the delivery process. Also they were prepared to recycle the mattress (small fee).
John
Mattress technology has definitely evolved.
Every purchase in this price range warrants research. Pleased I found this company and then found a friend who has owned one for years. The web site was very useful in this regard. In fact, the whole buying experience has been excellent.
Our old mattress was top of the range from a leading company when I bought it a few decades ago. Mattress technology has definitely developed a lot. It’s more comfortable (and thicker). Best of all, one of us getting up in the night no longer disturbs the other; the mattress absorbs the movement.
If I have any reservation at all, its about turning this mattress monthly when I’m in my 70s and later; it’s neither small or light. Maybe I should worry about that if it happens.

We’re very happy with our new mattress…
We’re very happy with our new mattress from John Ryan. The website was easy to use and It was helpful to be able to then talk to someone about the mattress we’d selected to see if it was the right one for us. It was useful too to read other people’s reviews.
The mattress itself (Artisan bespoke 004) is perfect for us.

very good product and great…
very good product and great communication thx

Fantastic bespoke luxury mattress and great service!
Great customer service and a fantastic bespoke product.
Once order was placed, I received a call to confirm that my specified mattress was appropriate for my wife and I. Though it was confirmed suitable, I did appreciate the service of talking me through my purchase and ensuring a bespoke product would not end up a costly mistake.
I then received an email from their courier suggesting a delivery date and asking me to confirm it was convenient.
On the day of delivery, the delivery team were courteous and happy to bring the mattress, which was well wrapped in protective plastic, inside.
We bought the Bespoke 004 in a zip-link super king. We’ve found it very supportive and comfortable. We knew the upholstery would be firm and thought this best as we were putting it on a sprung divan base and also using an alpaca topper which would soften it. If honest, it is still a little firm, but I heard from Savoir and others that similar mattresses are significantly firmer to start with and take a few weeks/months to soften. Would definitely recommend this manufacturer and their mattresses.
Julian
Lots of really useful information…
Lots of really useful information before we bought. The matress is very comfortable so those conversations obviously worked!
Mark
Very impressed!
I found the John Ryan website very useful when looking to replace my mattress. It offered lots of information and advice that helped me narrow down my choice. After comparing with other companies, I decided to go with the John Ryan Artisan Bespoke 004 – Medium Tension. I placed my order online and received a follow up call the next day, from a member of the team, to confirm I was happy with my choice. Delivery took around 4 weeks as advised. My mattress arrived as notified by delivery company. The delivery men removed their shoes without being asked, before whisking my mattress upstairs as requested. After airing the mattress, it was time to try it out for the first time. I found I did not need any time to get used to the feel of the mattress, or to let the mattress ‘settle’ as it was extremely comfortable from the word go. I had also bought a mattress topper from John Lewis and together it feels like I am sleeping on a cloud!! I cannot wait to get into my bed!! I do a physical job and suffer from allergies and I have found that this has dramatically improved the quality of my sleep. Highly rated products are so often a disappointment, but this time I really feel I have got my monies worth. Excellent quality. Extremely comfortable. No messing about with returns needed. Cuffed to bits.
I have only has the mattress a week, so can’t speak for its longevity. I will update my review once I’ve had the mattress at least 6 months to give a fuller picture.

We are completely thrilled with our new fabulous new bed
We are completely thrilled with our new bed – thank you. We were given very good advice and everyone was very helpful
Ali
excellent new mattress
Bed was ordered and John Ryan contacted us to confirm all the details and ensure we had ordered the right mattress for our needs. It was delivered on time by very helpful delivery men. The mattress is fantastic – both of us have slept better than we have for years, both of us are less restless and less easily disturbed, and our temperature is controlled better
Hannah
Excellent experience overall – great FAQ & advice
Excellent experience overall. Started with some research into mattresses and I found the very comprehensive FAQ. This was really helpful with my decisions. I’m a hot sleeper and needed a breathable and cool mattress as well as the correct support. It was really hard to find exactly what I was looking for in shops – there was very little advise and the marketing material was very confusing. In the end I chose John Ryan by Design because of their advice (online and phone) and the return policy. I’m really happy with my mattress (Bespoke 4) and it was much cheaper than my next alternative (which didn’t have such a great return policy in case of error).

Artisan Bespoke 004
Had the mattress 6 weeks now and I’ve been very pleased since day 1. Having changed from 8 year old Tempur which had started to give me a bad back after 5 or 6 hours in bed I’m now getting better quality sleep and no back back. Would definitely recommend. Jonathan

Artisan Bespoke 004 – Kingsize with soft and medium tension
We were a bit dubious about buying a bed online without trying it. However, we received great advice and all questions were answered in a way that inspired confidence. Bed was delivered two weeks ago, and we’re really delighted. Build quality is in a totally different league to our previous bed. For instance if one person turns over the movement is imperceptible to the other occupant, which is a great improvement! The combination mattress (one side medium, one side soft) suits us very well. Delivery was efficient and all wrappings taken away. Whole experience thoroughly recommended. Peter

Absolutely brilliant could not recommend highly enough.
We bought two beds, an Origins Pocket Reflex 1000 and an Artisan Bespoke 004. Unfortunately the Reflex 1000 proved too tall for my 4ft 11inch mother in law so we had to return it even though the bed was perfect in every other way. Returning the bed was no problem, John Ryan even got the men who collected the bed to wrap it. Our Bespoke bed is absolutely superb and we could not be more delighted. We highly recommend John Ryan.

website really useful
website really useful. We phoned to talk through our options as we couldn’t decide on firmness of bed, generally very helpful. Delivery and set up went smoothly. Obviously time will tell if the bed is any good but no issues in first few weeks.
David
V pleased
I rang and checked that I was ordering a mattress which was right for me- have sore hips. The advisor suggested a mattress which was cheaper as an alternative but I went with my first choice. After placing the order the follow up communication was efficient. The only slight problem was the delivery did not arrive in the 2 hour time slot. I rang and got a text apologising and the mattress was delivered 2 hours later. That was the only slight issue. Thrilled with the new mattress and have recommended to friends.
