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.

Very efficient
Ordered a mattress after asking for some advice. I was given a time slot for delivery and it was delivered on time. So far is proving to be very, very comfortable so no complaints

As trustworthy as your favourite Uncle (Origins Pocket 1500)
Needed a new mattress, looked in a few major bed retailers, wasn’t impressed by what I was seeing and by the knowledge of the shop assistants. My mother recommended John Ryan so I decided to give them a call. The guy on the phone was very knowledgeable and was able to recommend me a mattress after I told him my height, sleeping preference etc.
– Great customer service
– Easy to order
– Delivery wasn’t late
– Mattress was in perfect condition
– Mattress was everything they described it to be
I could tell after just 1 night that this mattress was providing me with MUCH more support than I have ever had from a mattress before. I usually wake up with lower back pain. Not any more! Good stuff!
I went with the Origins Pocket 1500 (double).

Excellent mattress
Excellent mattress, excellent service.
My partner and I have had our John Ryan mattress for just over a year now and think it is excellent.
We chose John Ryan because of their online guides for choosing/purchasing the right mattress – all of which seem very honest and focussed on selling you the right product, rather than trying to push their own products. After reading their online material I ordered a mattress through their website and within 24 hours someone from their customer services team rang me up for a quick chat about who was sleeping on the mattress/our needs to check we had chosen correctly – we thought this was a really nice touch and made us feel confident that we had made the correct choice.
Delivery service was excellent – we were able to choose a day for delivery which suited me.
When we received the mattress (Origins Pocket 1500) it was a little firmer than we had anticipated, and did take a week to get completely used to it. However a year on, both my partner and myself agree it is the most comfortable mattress we’ve slept on.
The mattress upholstery layers do soften a little over time – as they say on their website, it does need turning regularly as I can image that it would soften unevenly if not. After a year the mattress shows no sign of losing any support, so I expect it to stay with us for several more years at least.
Overall, would highly recommend.
