What are the different types of mattresses?
These are the main types of mattresses. Within each type you’ll find a lot of different options so you can choose the best comfort and support for you to get a good night’s sleep.
Spring mattresses
Spring mattresses distribute body weight evenly over the entire mattress and eliminate pressure concentration in any part of the body. The open spring construction allows air to circulate through the mattress so it doesn't get too hot while you sleep.
Spring mattresses are available in this firmness:
What firmness should you choose?
It all depends on the sleeping position. On your back or on your side, we recommend a medium firm of firm mattress. If you sleep on your stomach, a medium firm mattress.
In a shared bed, where there is no agreement on firmness, choose for two different mattresses. On top, a mattress topper to give the feeling of a double bed.
Foam mattresses
Soft and flexible, foam mattresses provide support by adapting to the contours of your body and distributing your weight evenly. As no pressure is placed on any part of your body, blood flows freely, helping you to fully relax.

Is it fair to say that choosing a mattress is one of the most important decisions you can make in life? We certainly think so. The fact is that a good night’s sleep is the key to well-being. Everyone sleeps a little differently. Understanding the different mattress types will help you choose one which suits your sleep perfectly.
Different types of IKEA Mattress
We spend a third of it on mattresses, so pick wisely. IKEA offers all comfort levels (soft, firm), materials (foam, spring) and sizes (twin to king) to match your sleep style.
Foam and latex mattresses
Foam and latex mattresses mould to the shape of your body and distribute your weight evenly. These mattresses provide support for your whole body without putting extra pressure on any specific body parts. They are also silent (no creaky springs!) and absorb the shock of movement.
Spring mattresses
Our spring mattresses also distribute your weight evenly, so that there’s no extra pressure on any part of your body. A key difference to the foam and latex mattresses, however, is that the open spring construction helps air flow through the mattress. This supports the ventilation in the mattress and can help you keep cool while you sleep. For some, it may give the mattress a fresher, airier feeling.
Choosing the best mattress by comfort grade
- Mattresses come in soft, medium, and firm feels. Here's a quick guide to finding your ideal match: Medium-firm: Ideal for back and stomach sleepers, offering excellent spinal support.
- Firm: Great for back sleepers, providing a stable surface for proper spinal alignment.
