Artisan Naturals vs Vi Spring Regal Superb

A customer asked

Looking for some guidance on what mattress to get.

I'm 6foot3 and 12 stone and my gf is 5foot and 8 stone.

I like a reasonable firm mattress and don't like memory form or anything that I would sink into too much.

We're willing to spend around £1000 on a mattress if it will mean that it lasts longer but only if it's really worth it.

I've been eyeing up the Artisan Naturals - Kingsize, which looks like it may be a good choice but i'm finding it hard to justify spending that much.

I tried a Vi Spring Regal Superb and it seemed extremely soft...

(didn't check whether it had a specific firmness) Perhaps this is just because i'm not used to pocket sprung mattresses.

Hi Tom,

Thank you for getting in touch.

The Artisan Naturals is our most popular, unbeatable model with 85% natural fibres. Containing a huge GSM of fillings, including wool and mohair, on a Calico Pocket spring unit. This medium feel hand crafted mattress is where we stake our reputation as ‘The Mattress Specialists’. The closest comparison we make to this model is the Vi Spring Regal Superb. As you are most probably aware the Vi Spring model is substantially more expensive than our Naturals model, When you see the detailed breakdown below its hard to justify such i high difference in price;

 

John Ryan By Design Artisan Naturals 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 1250gsm Rebound Poly Cotton 1200gsm long stranded Horsetail blended with British Fleece Wool
4 1500gsm 100% Pure Mohair 1000gsm Bonded British Fleece Wool and Cotton
5 1600 Calico encased Pocket Springs [ 49mm ] [1.28mm ] 1720 Calico encased Pocket Springs [48mm ] [1.28mm ]
Total GSM 3950gsm 3100gsm

As this mattress is over your budget at £1235.00 for a King Size model i would suggest you take a look at our Outlet options. 

The products sold in the Outlet are products that have previously been sold and returned under our John Ryan 60 day love it or return it guarantee. Once a product is returned to us it is inspected and graded accordingly using the grading system below;

Grade Discount Description
B 20% Will have been used by a customer and returned under the 60 night love it or return it guarantee, it may have a few marks from transit and courier handling.
C 40% Will have been used by a customer and returned under the 60 night love it or return it guarantee, it will have quite a few marks and could even have a small tear, nothing detrimental to the life or use of the mattress.

I hope that this information helps.

To discus this further please contact the office on 0161 437 4419 to speak to one of our friendly advisors.

Kind regards,
Amy.
