Ikea mattresses

Sleep is one of the most important components of every person's life. This is a third of his life in the literal sense of the word. And, of course, it is better to sleep on a bed with a good mattress that meets modern requirements for comfort and reliability. And who, if not Ikea will be able to help in choosing such a mattress!

The following are distinguished:

1. The first and foremost advantage of Ikea mattresses is these are affordable prices. They cost, of course, not a penny, but if you compare with the prices of other manufacturers, you can be pleasantly surprised.
2. Second, but no less important feature, it's workmanship. Their quality is so high that Ikea guarantees a mattress replacement for 25 years! If the check is intact, then within 25 years the mattress can be returned or replaced in case of any malfunction.
3. The third feature is not so significant, but very pleasant. If you need to transport the mattress, it is rolled up and packed in a vacuum bag, then carrying is a pleasure. For most of the products, it is possible to purchase special covers - mattress covers to facilitate maintenance and special loops for carrying.

Although the Ikea company does not differ in a large model range, it is nevertheless able to please almost anyone. Here are the types of mattresses this company has to offer today:

• Spring loaded. The most common and most familiar to customers. It is subdivided into two types: conventional with dependent block of springs and with pocket springs. The second type of springs is often called independent.

• Springless. It is also divided into latex and polyurethane foam (new generation foam rubber) models. In addition, modern polyurethane foam differs from the previous generation in that it has a memory effect, which ensures a comfortable body position and better rest.

• Sliding. Used for beds with a sliding mechanism. It is extremely comfortable because of the springs, such as bonnel (dependent block of springs), which provide the most comfortable sleep. One of the presented variants of this type is the Wissa Winka model.

• Foldable to the floor. This type of mattress is designed to comfortably accommodate guests in the absence of an extra bed. Consists of three parts, folding and unfolding in a second. When folded, it takes up little space and can be stored on a balcony or in a closet.

• A separate view can be distinguished bed for a sun loungeras it is a subtype of folding mattress. The same three foldable pieces with PU foam padding only used for the sun loungers presented by Ikea.

• Thin. In fact, it is a subtype of springless mattresses, however, it is distinguished into a separate category due to the thin layer of filler from 3.5 to 8 centimeters.

Previously, it was possible to purchase a base for a mattress with legs from Ikea, but now, the company has abandoned them due to lack of need.

Most of the mattress models are available in two versions: firm and medium firm. When choosing the degree of hardness, only the filler changes, but the cost also changes. When choosing a mattress, you need to pay attention to this.

Although the range of mattresses is not too large, they can be made to fit almost any bed size. For example, "Hovog" (pocket-spring mattress) can be made in five sizes: 90x200, 120x200, 140x200, 160x200, 180x200 cm, which will suit both single and double beds.

If necessary, you can choose a mattress for most of the sizes used in the manufacture of modern beds, namely:

• 80x190 cm;
• 180x80 cm;
• 90x190 cm;
• 70x160 cm;
• 120x180 cm;
• 150x200 cm;
• 90x180 cm;
• 170x80 cm.

In confirmation of these words can be cited a mattress "Khusvik", approved by experts for the sleep of children. Do not forget about the thickness of the product, because in many respects thanks to it, sleep becomes really comfortable. The suggested range is 3.5 to 31 centimeters.

Before moving on to listing all the different materials and fillers used in Ikea mattresses, you need to understand what the mattress consists of. And they consist of the following components: mattress fabric, side and bottom upholstery, springs, soft material and lining for spring versions or mattress fabric, soft material and lining for springless ones.

The mattress fabric is mainly made of cotton and polyester, in different proportions, but some models can use lyocell and linen. The same materials are used to create the side and bottom upholstery. Soft material - it is also a mattress filler. In its manufacture, the following materials are used: cotton mattresses - cotton wool from polylactide fiber, natural or synthetic latex, wool wool, horse hair, coconut fiber, polyurethane foam (sometimes called polyurethane), polyester wool, polypropylene, sisal and others. Non-woven polypropylene is mainly used for the lining.

Most mattresses manufactured by Ikea are available in white, however, in the manufacture of some models, dark gray, dark beige and light beige are used. You can find models made in gray and gray-blue colors.

We can say that the cover is a special storage for springless mattresses that can be simply removed and washed in a washing machine without any problems. They are made, like other mattress fabrics, mainly of polyester and cotton in different percentages. Equipped with special locks and hinges for easy portability.

As described above, when purchasing a mattress from an Ikea store for easy portability, each item is rolled up and placed in a special vacuum bag, thereby facilitating transportation. But these are not all possible purchase bonuses. For almost any mattress, you can purchase a special mattress cover for an additional cost, which will ensure better preservation of the useful properties of the mattress and its appearance. The cover, unlike the mattress, can be washed and reused, which is very convenient.

Knowing how the mattress works, you can easily maintain its appearance over time:

• The first thing to remember when using spring mattresses is that the springs are made of various metals that are subject to corrosion and various deformations if the rules of operation are violated. The main enemy of such mattresses are rooms with high humidity and spilled drinks. Filling such mattresses is difficult and when wet, it is not always possible to dry it properly, which can cause the mattress to fail quickly.
• To minimize the possibility of damage to the product, you can purchase a mattress topper, which is a thin layer of soft material that can be removed and washed in a washing machine at any time of use.

• Second, it is necessary to understand that any mattress becomes unusable faster if it has an unsuitable weight... The heavier the person, the less the product will serve, although for overweight people there are stiffer types of fillers that remain unchanged for longer.

• Third, it is important to remember that a mattress is a double-sided piece of furniture, which means that it is not only possible, but also you need to turn it over sometimes. So it will retain its shape and other useful qualities for a longer time.

• Fourth - no matter how protected the mattress is, it is still exposed to such a harmful substance as dust, and therefore experts recommend exhaust it from time to time in order to avoid the formation of various diseases and exacerbation of allergic reactions.

The choice of a mattress, as mentioned above, is not an easy matter, since many factors must be taken into account and from the whole variety, choose exactly what suits. And, of course, everything is strictly individual.

First, you need to decide on the frame. If it has already been purchased and the old mattress has fallen into disrepair, you can, knowing the dimensions, just come and buy a new one, similar in characteristics. If there is no frame, then you need to understand which mattress size to choose. Single, double, for children. There are many options.

Having decided on the size, you can look at the lineup presented in Ikea stores and, based on availability, choose. So, the beginning has been made and you can begin to describe the main criteria that influence the choice:

• The most important thing for most is the cost of the product., but in this choice I would like to warn you that the savings in this case will go sideways for the health and comfort of sleep, which is a third of a person's life.
• Next, you need to decide on the choice of stiffness. Everything is relatively simple here. It is enough to remember a small table and know the height and weight of the person who will sleep on this mattress. According to this table, all with a height of 150 to 200 centimeters and weighing from 50 to 70 kilograms are shown products of medium hardness, while people weighing over 70 kg need to purchase hard mattresses. However, this table is not absolute and it is always worth considering personal needs and habits. When choosing a stiffness, you can consult your doctor and follow his recommendations.

• Now comes the fun part! Mattress type. As mentioned above, all mattresses are divided into two main types: spring and springless. And this is perhaps the most difficult of all criteria. Today there are 22 models in Ikea stores. 11 spring and 11 springless, respectively.

Based on this list, choosing the right mattress will not be difficult.

Due to the fact that the range of mattresses is not very large, and the competition with other manufacturers is great, there are a lot of reviews on Ikea products and they are extremely diverse. Most of them are positive and this makes the main advertising of the company. First of all, buyers note that mattresses from Ikea in the price / quality ratio occupy a fairly good place, and therefore, when comparing with other products from different manufacturers, the choice remains with Ikea.

It is worth noting that negative reviews are mainly related to either the deformation of the springs or the subsidence of the soft layer in the first years of use, however, apparently, such buyers are not aware of the 25-year manufacturer's warranty. Summing up, we can say with confidence that Ikea is responsible for its products.
