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″.

John Ryan is a NBF (National Bed Federation) Premier Retail Champion. The National Bed Federation is the recognised trade association representing UK manufacturers of beds and their suppliers.
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.

I bought my Origins Pocket 1500 mattress nearly two years ago now. Quite simply, it is the best mattress I have ever slept on. Super comfortable and supportive, a pleasure to go to sleep on.

I came across JR by design several years ago – wish I had ordered then! I had no trouble with delivery, the mattress was delivered in just over a week after a courtesy call to ensure I had made the correct choice spec for my husband and I, so the experience was pleasant and very professional.
On to the mattress……we ordered the pocket origins 1500, one of their popular mattresses, I believe. After the mattress was delivered, I thought ‘wow’ , the depth worried me slightly as I’m on the smaller side and thought I’d need ‘step up’ to get on that! (Jokes aside!) It was deep and plush with the luxury cashmere top and wool filling – we couldn’t wait to go bed! First night felt awkward, as to be expected, this was a new mattress…. over the week, I tried various combinations of bedding, toppers ect and thought this may have been a mistake, but the 60 trial gave piece of mind to carry on. Almost 4 weeks later, 2 x mattress protectors (as I could feel the button tufts) this is the best, most comfiest mattress I’ve ever slept on! We’re due to turn at the month end and the top layer has settled with the centre slightly raised between my husband and I, but this is to be expected, I don’t sleep on his back! We have ‘our sides’ and this does not hinder sleeping as though I have to roll ‘up hill’ so to speak. I’m confident with frequent turning this will settle. Besides, I’m (we) are so happy with our purchase which has definitely impacted on our sleep quality without doubt! This, for us, is the most important factor along with the longevity of a mattress, so, for now, I couldn’t have asked for more! Thanks JR, a well deserved 5 star ⭐️

Excellent company to deal with
Excellent company to deal with. After looking on their website I had a mattress in mind. However, after I contacted them they advised that different mattress would be more suitable and was cheaper. Had the mattress over a year now and very happy with the purchase. Highly recommended.
