I Asked Home Editors to Share Their Favorite Affordable Mattress Recommendations – 3 IKEA Finds That Topped the List

Earlier this year, I moved from New York City to Los Angeles. Some of the home items I had to buy were a bed frame, a dresser, a desk, a mirror, and most importantly, a mattress. I initially thought any old mattress would suffice, but after speaking with editors, I realized the significance of this often-overlooked item.

'A mattress is arguably the most important purchase you can make for your home,' says Jennifer Ebert, digital editor at Homes & Gardens. 'It's an investment not only in quality sleep, but in your overall health and sense of wellbeing.'

So which mattresses do Jennifer and other home editors recommend? They all applaud IKEA mattresses for their luxurious feel, thoughtful construction, and affordable price. Each mattress is designed with soft yet resilient foam with various firmness levels, from ultra-supportive extra firm to plush extra soft for cloudlike comfort.

Wide Variety of Mattresses for All Living Situations and Bedroom Types

Mattresses are incredibly personal, and IKEA offers a wide range of mattress types that fit every preference, sleep position, and bedroom type. I was looking for a medium-firm mattress, and the ÅKREHAMN Foam Mattress ($359) caught my eye. It has multiple layers of supportive memory foam topped with plush foam for the perfect balance of comfort and support. Plus, IKEA provides a 10-year limited warranty and a 90-day guarantee on all mattresses, so you can test your mattress and ensure you find the right one.

Affordable Mattresses for All Budgets

Affordability was the most important consideration when I was shopping for mattresses, and IKEA mattresses are among the highest-quality and most cost-effective options on the market. They range from $89 to $748, which allows people of all budgets to create their perfect bed setup and get the best night's sleep without compromising comfort or overspending. IKEA goes a step further than other brands by eliminating unnecessary costs without forgoing quality, so you can save money and still have a mattress you look forward to sleeping on every night.

Easy and Convenient Mattress Shopping Experience

Purchasing a big item like a mattress seemed stressful and overwhelming at first. But I breathed a sigh of relief when editors told me that the shopping experience at IKEA is nothing but enjoyable. IKEA has multiple store formats, pick-up points, and shipping options, and you can make a whole experience out of mattress shopping by visiting an IKEA big blue box warehouse store. They're complete with showrooms, inspiring design setups, and even restaurants with famous Swedish delicacies. From shopping for your mattress to sleeping on it, IKEA provides a quality product and unforgettable experience that gets glowing reviews every time.
