I am 11 st. 4, on a currently rather firm, very old mattress. I want something medium/soft.
Hi Iain,
Thank you for your question.
Your body weight dictates that you should opt for a medium spring tension.
| Spring Tension | Wire diameter (Gauge) | Weight Range |
|---|---|---|
| Soft | 1.2mm | Bespoke Tension (Please Call) |
| Medium | 1.4mm | Upto 16 stone |
| Firm | 1.6mm | 16 stone plus |
| Extra Firm / Orthopaedic | 1.9mm | 20 stone plus |
The Origins Pocket 1500 is our best selling made in the UK man made and natural fibre mattress. Offering a quality 1500 pocket-spring unit and layers of fillings for a medium overall feeling. Unbeatable value given its quality.
| John Ryan By Design Origins 1500 | |
|---|---|
| 1 | 300gsm Wool |
| 2 | 750gsm Very Soft Polyester |
| 3 | 500gsm Polyester Pad |
| 4 | One Inch Foam Insulator Layer |
| 5 | 1500 Spun Bond Pocket Springs |
The Artisan Bespoke 004 is a 100% Natural Fibre Medium feel mattress. Hand Crafted containing layer upon layer of natural fibres including Bamboo, Wool, Horsetail and British Fleece Wool. This model is slightly softer than the Artisan Naturals which we describe as the 'true medium' of the Artisan range.
The closest comparable model we can find to this Artisan Bespoke 004 is The Vi-Spring Regal Superb. There are of course a few minor differences between the two.
| John Ryan By Design Artisan Bespoke 004 | Vi Spring Regal Superb | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1200gsm Blended British Fleece Wool and Cotton | 900gsm Blended real Shetland Isle Fleece Wool and Cotton |
| 2 | Hairproof Cambric Cover | Hairproof Cambric Cover |
| 3 | 200gsm Soft Bamboo | NA |
| 4 | 1200gsm Pure Horsetail | 1200gsm long stranded Horsetail blended with British Fleece Wool |
| 5 | 1000gsm Bonded British Fleece Wool and Cotton | 1000gsm Bonded British Fleece Wool and Cotton |
| 6 | 1600 Calico encased Pocket Springs [ 49mm ] [1.28mm] | 1720 Calico encased Pocket Springs [48mm ] [1.28mm] |
| Total GSM | 3600 gsm | 3100 gsm |
These are the two medium/ soft models I recommend taking a look at.
If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to call the office on 0161 437 4419.
Kind regards,
Amy.
