Ikea Spring Mattress Ratings
The Ikea (inner)spring mattress report below is based on over 54 owner / consumer reviews that were collected from diverse, credible sources.
The findings apply to several Ikea models including Jaren, Javnaker, Sultan Hagavik, Hamnvik, Harestua, Heidal, Herand, Hjartdal, Hjelmas, Hanstad, Huglo and discontinued models.
| Owner satisfaction | Poor | Ikea spring mattresses have 61 percent owner satisfaction which is significantly worse than Ikea foam mattresses and Ikea latex mattresses. Owners who use an Ikea spring bed only for occasional use (such as for use in a guest bedroom) tend to be more satisfied with the bed than are those who use the bed regularly. |
| Durability / longevity | Poor | The main complaint for Ikea spring mattresses is premature sagging / development of body impressions which can cause discomfort and back pain. |
| Price | good | $200-$550 is the price range. This is considerably less than the price for many other innerspring brands. |
| Less pain | fair | Pain relief, including back pain relief, is neither a clear strength or weakness of the Ikea bed. (See mattresses and pain relief for further analysis.) |
| Firmness variety | fair | Ikea spring beds come in a fairly wide variety of firmness levels, but most consumers report that the mattresses tend to have medium to firm firmness. |
| Motion isolation | poor | The mattress has little motion isolation. This means that movement of one person on the bed will likely be clearly felt by another person on the bed. |
| No initial odor / off gassing | good | Few if any owners had complaints regarding out gassing / initial smell. |
| No sleeping hot | good | There are few if any complaints regarding the mattress trapping a person's body heat and "sleeping hot." |
| Good for sex | good | There are no reviews with complaints regarding this issue. (See mattresses and sex for analysis). |
| No noise | good | Less than one percent of consumers report noise coming from their mattress. |
| Dust mite resistant | Poor | All bed types can host dust mites, but innerspring beds, including Ikea spring mattresses, likely host more than other types. Refer to mattresses and dust mites. |
| No turning / flipping | Fair | Owner reviews suggest that regular turning and or flipping of the mattress may be needed to extend its lifespan and comfort. |
| Lightweight | good | Ikea spring beds tend to be lighter than average mainly because they generally are thinner and do not use as much material as other brands. |
| Warranty | good | The beds have a 20-year warranty, but owners should not expect them to last nearly that long with regular use. (See mattress warranties: what you should know.) |
| Return policies | Fair | Ikea has a 90-day exchange policy. There are no money-back refunds. (See returning a mattress: what you should know.) |
| Better Business Bureau (BBB) ratings | good | Ikea US headquarters has an "A+" rating. |
