They don't list the thicknesses for the foam or the gauge of the steel for the innerspring unit.
Objectively this model isn't something that I would classify or ever represent as premium adult support, and certainly not appropriate for someone with a bad back. The bed will contour to your body, but not due to any advanced design. It simply lacks support. Having seen these beds in person I have a pretty good idea on the quality of construction and methods used, but I'm not writing to disparage the product. IKEA mattresses used to come from Poland, then some were made in Mexico (recalled due to not meeting USA Flame Resistant guidelines). IBC was contracted to make some products for IKEA - not sure where this one comes from, as it's not listed on the web site. You can do so much better from a major brand with better foams, a more advanced innerspring and much better construction. and look under the BEDUCATION section for some really good objective information that will help you select a mattress.The IKEA mattresses I’ve had were decent but whether or not ones under $300 is worth the money depends on how rested you are over time when you sleep in them.
For me, I was a broke college student so anything cheap was good enough for me and no way would I buy a used mattress. However, I found that there are much better mattresses for that price budget.A good mattress is one of the most important things you can buy and since you have a bad back, it’s even more important. If you are going to buy one of the cheaper IKEA mattresses for whatever reason, you can buy one of those mattress toppers that can increase the level of comfort for your mattress. Although, with better mattresses for around the same price range out there, you might as well just buy one of those.Personally, I’d stay away from IKEA when it comes to low price point mattresses but most of their other stuff is great such as sectional sofas, desks, and bed sheets. Those laundry hamper things they sell for under $10 is also awesome. Had mine for over 8 years.I would avoid it. We had a temporary move for work (2 year relo) and needed to get a mattress for our apartment. Bought the sultan queen and box spring.
Was fine at first, but after about 18 months of two (not overweight) adults sleeping on it, it got some warping and flat spots, I had also discovered when I moved it that several of the wooden parts of the box spring (just a bunch of slats really) had broken in half. We ended up just throwing them in the dumpster. (Goodwill won’t even take this broken flimsy crap). I think these mattresses must be made for an 8 year old, 80 pound child. I think I spent about 375 on the set.Meanwhile, I have two other mattress and box spring sets. One is about 8 years old, the other is about 15 years old and now a guest bed, but was slept on everyday previously. Both sleep fine, no issues til this day.The Sultan Florvag from IKEA is a thin, roll-packed polyurethane foam mattress. Not only is it inexpensive, it is also one of the top-rated mattresses on Viewpoints. Despite its slim shape, it does not require a boxspring and can be laid flat on any bed foundation. Is the Sultan Florvag mattress too good to be true?
According to Sultan Florvag reviews, this mattress lives up to its high Viewpoints score. Reviews for IKEA Sultan Florvag Foam Mattress Other mattresses on Viewpoints have an average rating of 75/100; the IKEA Sultan Florvag mattress is one of the best available. It is also one of the most affordable at only $179 for a queen size mattress. Some foam mattresses sag or lose their shape. The Sultan Florvag foam mattress stays firm and offers all over back support. “This mattress is, like all IKEA items, very affordable. I bought it in a full size for my bed about a year ago, and it has held up very well. The foam doesn’t depress and it supports my back well. After unrolling it, it spruced up very nicely, and hasn’t lost its shape since then. I rotate and flip it once every few months, and there hasn’t been any noticeable wear in any particular spot.” —anoniimous, Reviewer since 2010 “We went to several places for a foam mattress but they are super expensive.
Then we went to IKEA and purchased their Sultan firm foam mattress. The price was awesome and it felt great in the store. We brought it home, unrolled it and slept on it the first night. We both have been sleeping so much better and the best part is that my husband’s back no longer hurts” —stopfamily4, Reviewer since 2010 The Sultan Florvag takes a few days to puff up once unpacked. Once it regains its original shape, reviewers say it is as comfortable as thicker mattresses. “I have owned my Ikea queen sized mattress for almost a year now, and I love it. It is about 4 – 5″ thick. You would think that you were sleeping on a 17″ mattress. I feel like I am sleeping on a cloud.” -kstalna, Reviewer since 2010 “ I originally bought my IKEA mattress for the guest bed upstairs, but quickly found it more comfortable than my three year old traditional boxspring and coiled mattress so I switched them out. A year and a half later I have no complaints.” - dudleypippen, Reviewer since 2010
“I did think it was weird that it was in a bag at first, but it finally made sense when I cut open the bag and it expanded. It was better than my box-spring mattress. I sleep like a baby every night. You can add an additional topper if you want, but to be honest it’s good enough as it is for me. Bottomline, if you have a tight budget and you’re tired of your old mattress, go for this.” - christiannn, Reviewer since 2010 While most reviewers enjoy the thin mattress, one reviewer found its slim shape to be a problem. “The Sultan Florvag is very thin – less than 4 inches. Sitting on it, you can feel the foundation underneath. It’s also very firm. I found it very uncomfortable. And it did not improve over the next few sleepless nights. Making the bed is also not pleasant because of how thin the mattress is. The quality of construction and material appears to be good.” - tamsey, Reviewer since 2013 If you’re looking for a foam mattress, but can’t afford to spend thousands of dollars on a more expensive memory foam bed, the Sultan Florvag from IKEA might be good option for you.
