Artisan Bespoke Mattress…Now Fully Acclimatised

I purchased an Artisan Bespoke Mattress nearly seven weeks ago after I was advised by John Ryan that due to my body weight and sleeping style that an Artisan Bespoke would be an excellent choice, which was also the most comparable to a Vispring Herald Superb which I had tried in the Vispring Flagship Store in London and liked although their price is a lot more expensive that the JR Artisan Bespoke.

I have to say that after putting up with a 10-year-old saggy “medium tension” Dreams mattress, the JR Bespoke mattress can as to major shock to my system not to mention my back. After the first two or three nights (sorry, I can’t really call it sleep) I was worried that after spending a fair bit of money I had made to wrong choice and the mattress tension (Firm) was far too hard for my poor back. I also need to mention that I had also paired it with a Hasena Swiss handmade solid wooden bed which also may have had a contributing effect.

I then went back to the JR forum (a superb source of advice, information & feedback IMHO) and read up again on the advice that you should give it four to six weeks for your body to acclimatise to the new mattress and the new mattress to acclimatise to your body. I won’t claim that things dramatically changed for the better in the next couple of nights, but I will claim that my sleep, rest and comfort levels continuously improved over the next three of four weeks.

I can honestly say that I now look forward to bedtimes in the knowledge that I will be getting a comfortable full night’s sleep & rest. I would like to give a huge thankyou to all JR Staff for all their advice, help and expertise and would recommend them to anyone looking for a top quality mattress & top notch customer service.

Hi Alex,

Wow what a fabulous review for which we thank you so much.

It does take time to get used to a new mattress which is why we provide each customer with a 60 night no quibble guarantee however we are so pleased that you are now receiving a great night's sleep and that your new Artisan Bespoke is providing this for you.

The Artisan Bespoke is the firmest mattress that we make however none of our mattresses are classed as orthopedic firm as they all have a certain amount of cushioning.

We hope that you continue to have a great night's sleep on your new John Ryan mattress.

Next level customer service

Super happy with the purchase. The sales assistant gave me so much guidance, and the product is exactly what we needed. The trial period gave me a lot of reassurance, not that we needed to return/exchange. The quality of the mattress is fantastic - especially given the price-point. The delivery process was personal. Packaging was easy to dispose off. Couldn't be happier - so glad that a company like this exists.

We got in touch with John Ryan by design last year after my brother and sister in-law had bought one unfortunately at the time finances wouldn't allow however this year when we could we got back in touch with Julie and she asked us the same questions to see if our needs had changed which they had and she made an alternative suggestion as to what we should buy. They were a great company to deal with before, during and after so would highly recommend.

100% recommend

My experience from start to finish was brilliant - the quiz on the website helped narrow down my search and Julie was able to help me make my final decision. Everyone is super informative and helpful. The mattress is amazing, more expensive than others I was looking at but 100% worth the money for quality and experience.

Excellent - I'm a customer for life

I tried three others before this to replace my ~15 year old Warren Evans mattress, all from relatively well known brands. They were all terrible. A friend recommended John Ryan - I'd never heard of them but the mattress is truly excellent. I'm a customer for life.
