The firmness of the mattress you desire is determined by a few factors. Your weight and height, and the mattress of your choice. The upholstery layers are the very top comfort layers and give different degrees of firmness alongside the spring unit. The higher up in the list the mattress is, the firmer it will be in the top upholstery layers. The lower down the list, the softer the initial upholstery layers will feel.
The Origins 1500 is our most popular model in the range. Giving a true Medium feel, this two-sided model simply can’t be beaten by our competitor’s offerings.
First Layer: 300 gsm Wool: This component is blended with (nominal amount) silk to give the primary layer beneath the fabric a gloriously soft cushion.
Second Layer: 750GSM Very soft Polyester: This coupled with the layers below brings the level of upholstery quite high. However, when compressed through tufting gives these layers a medium comfort but also has sufficient support by use of the springs.
Third Layer: 500GSM Polyester: This is the cushioning layer that acts as the dampener between the insulator layer below and the soft polyester that will follow.
Fourth Layer: One-inch foam insulator: Directly on top of the spring unit we use a one-inch layer of HD foam. This cushions you from the spring unit but also works with you enabling the pocket springs to rise and fall as you move.
The stretch knit mattress side panels are machine stitched. Traditionally hand-tufted. Even though the mattress side panels are 9″ deep, the undulations caused by the abundant upholstery brings the mattress depth to a more realistic 13″.

We are also members of the Guild of Mastercraftsmen, showing our focus is firmly on quality and supplying only the best built and constructed mattresses available that can be retailed at a fair and acceptable price.
The Origins Pocket 1500 is a substantial well built and well filled and ultimately a well-priced mattress. There really isn’t much out there that can be deemed a good comparison for this price.
The side panels may be machine side stitched but the price absolutely justifies this. Although, classed as a 9″ mattress (the depth of the side panels) the number of fillings contained make the surfaces protrude so when hand-tufted creates a sumptuously deep mattress bringing the overall depth to a more realistic 13″.
All in all, this is a thoughtfully conceived mattress. Every component used works together to create an outstanding mattress for the money. Bear in mind when doing comparisons, that this is a full double-sided mattress – not one-sided.

Great all round service from ordering to delivery
Delivery guys were very polite, efficient and courteous. The mattress is superb, very well built and so comfy. I would certainly look to use again when looking for my next mattress and recommend to others.

This is the second mattress that I have…
This is the second mattress that I have bought from John Ryan, the first being before they became “by design”. I have no problems with that one and when I needed a new mattress for my daughter I approached them again.
The second mattress was just right, I was given great advice over the phone, even had a call before the order was sent out to ensure that I had spoken to someone.
My daughter now has a comfortable nights sleep.
I was even told that my mattress shouldn’t need renewing at 8ish years old and was recommended a company for a new topper.
Couldn’t be happier with the staff or their product.

Comfortable Process & Product
Our Sealy mattress had failed after just couple of years so we started looking for alternatives. We tried an Otty but this was too firm and too warm so we returned it. We spent many hours online shortlisting models but each time found very variable reviews for the models on our shortlist. Any mattress is a significant expenditure but it all seemed such a lottery. We then chanced upon John Ryan by Design. Almost all reviews were 5 star. We spent a happy few hours reading loads of the articles on the website. It was so refreshing and reassuring to have things explained clearly and openly. We ordered the Origins Pocket 1500. Since we were in lock-down things did not progress as quickly as normal but this was not unexpected under the circumstances. We received a phone call after a few weeks to check we had ordered the correct mattress for us and to inform us that our mattress was about to enter production. Four weeks later our mattress was delivered by Keen & Able. All very straightforward. The mattress is far more substantial than anything we’ve ever experienced before. It was comfortable right from the first night. We’ve not yet got to three weeks so can’t comment on longevity but so far so good. We won’t be going back to the high street for mattresses. Highly recommended.
