I personally have slept on an IKEA mattress for a few years post-college. It is a fine entry point mattress without many frills, but there are reports (and I experienced it too) of memory foam sagging over only a few years.The pros: Very affordable priced mattresses.The cons: Low grade materials and not all manufactured in the US.
Mattress TypesIKEA separates its offerings into memory foam / latex and spring mattresses. We'll go through these two lines in detail below.Memory Foam / LatexTheir most popular memory foam mattress is the Morgedal. It is rated as medium firm, runs about 7'' high (less high than many other online offerings) and is made of the following materials: polyester/viscose cover for cool breathability, and then two layers of foam -- a medium layer of poly foam on top and a high resilience base poly foam on the bottom.The pros of this mattress line are its price point and overall initial comfort.The cons are that reviewers report quicker sagging and bedding breakdown with these mattresses.Price Range: $75-$1199Final Score: 6.8 / 10SpringIKEA offers some of the best prices on a spring mattress, but some report feeling discomfort. Here is what's in their 8.25'' Hasvag mattress, one of their most popular: cover is polyester and cotton, comfort material is two thin layers of poly foam, and underneath is a Bonnel spring coil system (traditional look).
The pros: It is a very affordable innerspring that provides immediate practical use and initial comfort.The cons: Reviewers mention that there is sagging over a shorter time than average and some experience discomfort from the mattresses.Price Range: $79-$799Final Score: 6.3 / 10Browse Ikea Customer Reviews great so farI also have had lower back issues for a few months, especially in the morning, and I think it is because my 8yo sleepmaker pillowtop mattress had 'hammocked'. I tried adding a memory foam mattress pad to extend its life, but that didnt really work - it just felt like being partly buried in a softer hammock.The Hesseng mattress is very firm, as others have mentioned, but using the mattress pad (its also ikea - tussoy) on it I find it really comfortable and supportive. I havent tried it without the mattress pad, but I think it would be okay. After only two sleeps, my back definitely feels a bit better this morningI chose the Hesseng because it has good quality materials, zoned pocket coils and no pillowtop.
I didnt want a pillow top because they get sink holes, so I wanted to be able to replace the mattress pad rather than the whole mattress when the mattress pad fails.I checked out lots of mattress shops but couldnt get a mattress of similar quality with these features anywhere near this price, plus I kept getting the hard sell to upgrade which is very annoying!As someone else mentioned, it really did smell a bit like hay in the first day or two, in a nice way, but it doesnt smell at all now.I am very happy with it so far and will try to remember to post an update once I have had it a while, as I found it difficult to find enough reviews to make my decision. Others have indicated that the Ikea mattresses dont last that long, and nowhere near their 25 year warranty. However, my expensive sleepmaker also only lasted 8 years and I hear the same of other beds, so even if this one lasts about the same amount of time before needing replacement, I will save moneyView More ReviewsCompare Ikea With These BrandsSapira SleepBear MattressLeesaHyphenPurpleZenhavenSaatvaBrooklyn BeddingNovosbedLoom And LeafLullCraftmaticHelixQomfortDrommaReverieHypnosUrbanVoilaLuxiDreamfoam BeddingNest BeddingLaylaArctic DreamsEightRestonicIkremaEveGhostbedCasperIntellibedPlushbedsCocoonDream BedDormeoClassic BrandsEluxury SupplyBed In A BoxEasy RestTherapedicEndyVi SpringWinkbedsDiamondAshley FurnitureSleep ScienceComfortaireNatures SleepSpringwallAmerisleepCorsicanaTempurpedicCharles P RogersSleep On LatexBrentwood HomeEclipseNovaformZinusHampton And RhodesSleep InnovationsKluftTuft And NeedleAireloomSignature SleepSleep NumberSelect

(via Cuckoo 4 Design) 7. Handwriting Side Table: For the most personal side table ever, write a love note across the top. Make sure you cover with a top coat so none of that love rubs away.
8. Custom Cork Board: Add some colorful wall decor to keep favorite photos, love notes and even jewelry right in sight. We’re thinking this would also be a great addition to any office. (via Oh Everything Handmade) 9. Moroccan Wedding Blanket: We are totally head over heals in love with this Moroccan wedding blanket. Sparkling and tassled, this DIY will take some time, but the effort is well worth it. 10. Wood Fabric Headboard: Stay as far away from woodworking as possible by just using wood fabric to make an upholstered headboard that’s comfy and still very Scandinavian cool. 11. Hemnes Nightstand: Underneath that paint is natural wood just waiting to get out. With a little sanding and gloss, upgrade the Hemnes side table into a stylish nightstand. 12.

Gold Chevron Table: Add some personality to a plain white tabletop by laying out a design with tape and painting it gold or any other bright accent color you want to incorporate into your room. 16. Ombre Plant House: If you’re not tired of ombre yet, play with an adult version of a dollhouse and turn it into a fun little plant display. 17. Under Bed Drawers: Don’t let small-space living cramp your style. Add IKEA drawers underneath your bed for extra storage. 18. Wire Basket Side Table: We are a little obsessed with this bright and sunny hack, but you could play around with different wood stains and colors to find the perfect combo that works with your decor.

Wrap the IKEA bamboo pouf in some serious swag. All you need is a pile of fabric scraps to twist together and wrap, wrap, wrap. (via Cherry and Mint)
