Read the one star reviews first for firm mattressAnonymous reviewerI should’ve read all the reviews - not just top best…
I have 7 years old medium firm Hamarvik that it’s still good and wanted something of similar firmness to the spare room that will be baby nursery room.
I just slept one night on my new Valevag firm - but it doesn’t feel like firm mattress.
I got back to read now all the reviews and it seems it’s not only my feeling.
I’ll give it a few weeks to see if it improves, but already so disappointed with this purchase as it’s a first time I spent a little bit more for mattress than the cheapest.
The make of the mattress and quality seems similar to anything else that IKEA sells, so no complaints there.2
MattressAnonymous reviewerVery comfortable, and easy to transport home.5
Great for my spare roomsAnonymous reviewerHi. I bought these firm mattresses for my two spare rooms, used by my adult sons. They both like them...one as it is and the other prefers it with a topper. One liked it do much he bought a king size one for his own home as his main bed...with a topper for even extra comfort5
MattressAnonymous reviewerVery comfortable, slept on a one in a holiday house we rented for a week, when we came home from holiday, went to our nearest IKEA and bought a very similar mattress, couldn't get the same one, but it's still very comfortable.5
Very comfortableAnonymous reviewerA firm mattress is very good for people with back pain problems.5
Far too hardAnonymous reviewerIt’s a firm matress but I think far too firm, no give at all may as well be sleeping on the floor it’s so hard. I know I can return but it’s in our holiday home in Cumbria and can’t fit in car. 2
Good basic mattressAnonymous reviewerWorth the money but don't expect luxury. Medium firm is actually very soft.4
MattressAnonymous reviewerThis mattress fits well with the Tarva bed frame we bought. It is comfortable and good value. 5
Not medium firmAnonymous reviewerI bought the double medium firm. I really do not like this mattress. There is no way it is medium firm and is more like firm. Feeling very disappointed as I can't sleep on it.1
Daughter says it is very comfortable!Anonymous reviewerVery good quality mattress at a reasonable price4
Ultra comfyAnonymous reviewerGreat mattress, firm to medium and great value5
The right mattress at last!Anonymous reviewerThird time lucky, after trying 2 other, much more expensive, ones. We needed a mattress, as, after 15 years, our old one had two large hollows and was in bad condition. My husband tosses about restlessly so had to have a mattress which minimises movement and is not too soft. So far, this mattress fits the bill and, more importantly, has been accepted by my husband! It is quite firm, but not overly so, and we both find it very comfortable. You can't turn it over though, so I hope it will last!4
Disappointed 😒Anonymous reviewerI bought this mattress for the 1st time from IKEA, having confidence that IKEA provides a quality mattress, but this mattress gave me a backache. It's not only me, but my husband also feels restless as it sinks in the middle. We bought it in September 2024 and kept waiting to review if it could be something that would take us some time to get used to. But no change, I wake up like a tired person after struggling for the whole night where and how I should take a posture to get adjusted. I'm absolutely disappointed 😞 Now I feel a big hassle to pick this mattress up and take it back to the store as now it's not rolled and packed and can't be adjusted in a car. I don't know what to do with this now 😒1
Small improvements would be beneficialAnonymous reviewerI find this mattress very comfortable, and I am confident I will sleep well on it for a long time.
The only need for improvement I can offer is the positioning and orientation of the handles. It would be better if they were placed horizontally and closer to the corners, instead of the current placement.4
comfy,comfy,comfyAnonymous reviewerVery comfortable has exactly the right amount of give in it I am very happy.5
GoodAnonymous reviewerGood,but not very firm5
Good nights sleep Anonymous reviewerGot its firmness after 2 days of being on the bed. Probably as it Was so tight in the wrapper. Super convenient being rolled got it in the car with no hassle. Make sure when you collect it to check the label for the tick box to say it’s the firm as both styles were in the same pod in IKEA isle. It’s a very comfy mattress and medium firm. Highly recommend it and price was excellent.5
Small double mattress. Anonymous reviewerWe have always bought Valevag mattresses from IKEA, the firm one. The small double one was no exception. It is very comfortable and we expect it to last our daughter for many years ahead. 5
Comfortable and affordableAnonymous reviewerHaving tried out the mattresses in store, I chose the firm option (which is more medium firm in my opinion)! The price is great, I was able to collect from a local pick up point free of charge, and the rolled up mattress fitted in my small hatchback car. I've been sleeping on it for a few months now and find it very comfortable.5
FabAnonymous reviewerVery comfortable mattress. 5
