Are ikea mattresses any good?

[Orangeis]

Just that really, do you have one, is it any good?
I'm sworn off the mattress in a box model, and don't really know where to start.

We have a king size Hovag that we've had for 18 months in medium firm. Ours has dips on each side where we sleep and a bit of a ridge in the middle. I'm a little disappointed as everything I read said they didn't do this but I can't complain too much as its infinitely better than the mattress it replaced and was very cheap.

I feel confused by everyone saying the mattresses are normal sized as we ordered a UK king sized mattress and it hangs over the edge of our bed 😂 it’s only by a little bit, a couple inches maybe, but it’s definitely not a completely standard king…

I’ve bought 4 in the last few years, got a couple for my DPs as they don’t have an Ikea nearby. All standard sizes, went onto non Ikea bed frames. Hamervik or however it’s spelt, really good for the money, comfortable enough for me. I like the way they come rolled up and easy to chuck into the boot.

Most of the mattresses in our house are IKEA. Three doubles which were middle of the range and super comfy (guests have commented!) and a slightly more expensive one for DH and I that is still by no means top of the range, but very comfy, deep and sturdy.
I think IKEA mattresses are very good, but worth trying out in store to see what you like.

Has anyone bought an Ikea mattress fairly recently that they are happy with? It looks like the recent name changes to the mattress range has co-occurred with some changes to the actual mattress too (ie, the mattresses are a bit different, not just same but different name).

Yes, I have recently bought a VESTMARKA
