Your Mattress Is the Most Important Investment – Shop the Under-$650 IKEA Must-Haves Home Editors Recommend

One of the best things you can do for your health, in both the short term and the long term, is consistently get a good night’s rest. But of course, that's not as easy as it sounds. A mattress is a big purchase, and not just because of the cost – it's where you spend up to a third of your life, and how you sleep on it affects how much you enjoy the two-thirds of your life that you're awake.

If you can't remember the last time you bought a new mattress, your sleeping surface could be impacting your rest. See why Homes & Gardens editors recommend heading to IKEA the next time you’re buying a mattress.

There's a Mattress for Every Sleeper

Just like IKEA makes storage solutions for every organizational problem, it makes mattresses for every type of sleeper. There are both firm and soft mattresses, as well as ones that strike the perfect balance in between. IKEA mattresses are also designed to suit all sleeping positions: Side sleepers should look to the VÅGSTRANDA Pocket spring mattress for support throughout the night, while back and stomach sleepers may want to check out the ÅNNELAND Hybrid mattress for their ultimate comfort.

Easy Trade In (If You Need It)

Selecting a mattress is a big decision – you shouldn’t feel locked into your choice until you're absolutely sure. That's why IKEA will let you bring back a mattress you thought you were sure of and exchange it for a new one within 90 days of purchase. This allows you to try the mattress in your own home and see how your body adjusts to it. IKEA also offers a 10-year limited warranty, so you don't have to worry about a sagging mattress or damaged spring ruining your good night's sleep.

It's an Easy and Convenient Shopping Experience

Sometimes, the thought of shopping for a new mattress is more painful than sleeping on your old one. You're either sitting at home, trying to distinguish one online mattress brand's website from another, or you're in a store with a salesperson who's only interested in their commission, not your sleep quality. But if you're buying a mattress from IKEA, the process is simple. You can purchase one online and have it delivered to your home, or you can check out an IKEA store near you, whether it's a small-format urban store or one of its famed warehouse stores with stylish showrooms and a Swedish-style cafeteria.
