IKEA review

IKEA is the cheapest well-documented place on this list to buy a new queen mattress. When we checked, its US mattress page listed 28 items, including the VALEVÅG pocket spring mattress at $399 for a queen and the best-selling ÅNNELAND hybrid at $649, each with clear firmness labels and sizes. IKEA's return policy is the standout: it accepts unopened products for 365 days and opened products within 180 days with proof of purchase for a full refund, which works out to a long trial for a budget bed. You can also lie on most models in an IKEA store before buying. The tradeoffs are a narrow selection of IKEA's own beds only, no Tempur-Pedic or Sealy, and returns that usually go through a store's exchanges and returns desk or a scheduled pickup. It is a good fit for a guest room, a first apartment or anyone with a firm budget.
