Hello everyone, I have been considering buying the IKEA Hemnes bed for some time now, as the design and storage options seem really appealing. However, I am still unsure about choosing the right mattress because there are different types that vary significantly in material, firmness, and comfort.
I’m especially interested in hearing about your experiences with mattresses you have used specifically for the Hemnes bed from IKEA.
I’m curious about both subjective impressions such as comfort, sleep quality, and durability, as well as more objective factors, for example, whether the bed frame tends to make noise with certain mattresses, how ventilation performs, or if it’s better to go for a more flexible or a firmer mattress.
Additionally, do you perhaps have any recommendations on which mattress models work particularly well with the Hemnes or which ones are better to avoid?
Thank you in advance for your detailed feedback!

I love my Hemnes bed and chose the "Morgedal" mattress from IKEA – I really sleep well on it!!!This is a common opinion, but the "Morgedal" mattress should also be viewed critically: although the foam is relatively high quality, its thickness of about 12 cm (5 inches) is usually only found in budget mattresses, which can lead to faster wear, especially for people over 80 kg (176 lbs).

Moisture regulation depends greatly on the mattress topper – materials like open-cell cold foam or latex allow better evaporation than conventional high-resilience foam.I agree with that. Additionally, although the Hemnes bed is ventilated due to the slatted frame, moisture can still linger longer in certain areas if breathable covers are not used.
In conclusion: I recommend testing specialized cold foam or latex mattresses in specialty stores before deciding. These often offer higher density foams and potentially better durability than IKEA’s standard models. Of course, price is always a matter of budget.
