Assessed from Ikea's published specification for this mattress, captured September 2026, and from regular price comparison across our UK retail partners.
Choose the Vesteroy if you want pocket springs without the pocket sprung price. Its 267 springs per square metre respond to your body individually, which helps reduce that roll-together feeling on a shared bed. The polyurethane foam comfort layer has a density of 33 kg/m3, a respectable figure at this price that suggests it should hold its shape reasonably well over time. It meets EN 1957 and BS 7177 standards, covering durability and fire safety testing. Yes, at 20cm it's a slim mattress with a fairly simple build, but the 10-year guarantee and Ikea's generous returns policy take much of the risk out of trying it. It comes in UK Single, Double and King.
Key Features & what's inside
- Pocket springs. Individually wrapped steel springs, 267 per square metre, that compress independently under your body. This gives more precise support than connected coils and helps limit motion transfer between partners.
- Standard foam. A polyurethane foam layer at 33 kg/m3 density sits above the springs to soften the feel. It cushions pressure points at the shoulders and hips without adding much sink.
- Stiff felt. A firm felt layer that protects the foam from the spring unit. It keeps the comfort layer from working its way into the coils, which helps the mattress last.

Who's it NOT for?
If you want a deep, plush feel, the 20cm profile and simple foam-over-springs build will feel a little basic. Lighter side sleepers may find medium firm slightly too solid at the shoulder. Anyone after memory foam contouring or a hybrid with multiple comfort layers should look elsewhere.

How firm is the Ikea Vesteroy mattress?
Ikea describes the Vesteroy as medium firm. That suits most back and combination sleepers, although lightweight side sleepers may find it a touch too firm at pressure points.
Does the Ikea Vesteroy come with a trial?
Ikea's brand-wide policy allows 365 nights to try a mattress, though the trial isn't stated on every product page, so confirm it applies to the Vesteroy when you buy.
How long is the guarantee on the Ikea Vesteroy?
It comes with a 10-year guarantee, which is reassuring on a mattress that starts at £109.
How deep is the Ikea Vesteroy mattress?
It's 20cm deep. That's slimmer than many mattresses, so check your fitted sheets, and expect a lower profile on the bed frame.
What sizes does the Ikea Vesteroy come in?
It's available in UK Single, UK Double and UK King, with prices from £109.
