15 years has passed - it's time for a new mattress - eviltoast

Any buying tips? Does it need to be any more complicated than lying on a few at the showroom? Of course I know mattresses aren’t lifetime purchases; my main concern is avoiding paying good money for something I’ll hate in a few years.

I’m prepared to spend up to US$1500. I want a spring coil mattress. I don’t want memory foam. Please lend me your shopping experiences!

    I do not recommend IKEA mattresses. We had one and it started sagging about a week in and my husband started having back pain. New mattress and back pain went away.

      Do you remember specifically which mattress you tried? From when I’ve looked, they have some really cheap options, and some higher quality options.

      I slept on on of their cheap mattress just out of college and liked it, but I haven’t used them in a while. I’m strongly considering their HAUGSVÄR mattress as a budget-friendly/midrange option.
