Ikea Mattress Features
Ikea offers great variety when it comes to mattresses and bedding accessories. Mattresses are available in innerspring, foam and latex materials. The mattresses are also fitted with stretchable and knitted ticking on top which boosts point-elasticity. Spring mattresses are designed to distribute body weight evenly and are more breathable.
Health Benefits
Foam and latex foams are very effective for pressure points relief and prevention or elimination of body, neck or shoulder pain. Spring mattresses if developed sagging and body impressions can cause body pain. Overall, all three types of mattresses received above average rating for their pain relief potential. Breathable spring mattresses are cooler to sleep on and prevent heat buildpup.
Praises
Customers praised their latex and foam mattresses while innerspring mattresses are not as popular as other mattresses. Latex and foam mattresses are equally praised for their longevity, lifespan and durability. The value provided by Ikea mattresses is also praised as they are rated as very cost effective and affordable. The mattresses are also rated as very easy to move on by most users. The latex and foam mattresses also show better motion isolation ability than spring mattresses.
On the other hand, spring mattresses perform well for people with extra weight than latex and foam. Spring mattresses also have no complaints about odor or off gassing but latex and foam received few of such complaints. Spring mattresses are also effective for people with sweating issues as they are more breathable than latex and foam.
Spring mattresses are also easy to care for than foam and latex. For noise, latex and foam received positive praise while spring mattresses received few complaints. Latex and foam are also easy to move due to their light weight if compared to spring mattresses.
Complaints
The main complaint is about development of permanent body impressions and sagging after few years of use. Customers claimed that sagging results in discomfort and body pain but the number of sagging complaints is similar or lower than other competitors in market.
As ikea offers mattresses for varying prices, low priced mattresses have more such complaints while expensive mattresses don’t have such complaints. Customer satisfaction about their spring mattresses is lower than their foam and latex mattresses mainly because of sagging issues.
Price Range
The prices offered by Ikea are affordable and cheaper than many other competitors in the industry. The price ranges from as low as $80 to as high as $1,200 depending on the size and material of the mattress. Users can also buy a foundation for an extra $100 to $400.
Lifespan & Warranty
The company offers limited warranty of 20 to 25 years based on the model. The warranty is better than other mattresses within the same price bracket but few customers complained that the terms are often vogue and not customer friendly. Ikea also offers 90 days exchange policy (No money back guarantee).
