- In this video I give you a comprehensive and honest review of IKEA's Malm high bed (queen size) and IKEA's Morgedal firm mattress (queen size). You'll get pointers such as using the Ängsvide mattress protector, a Lack side table. I go into the costs and pros and cons of the Morgedal mattress combined with a Malm bed frame. Overall opinion: sturdy and highly recommended. Expect the bed to perform consistently for a long time. IKEA items 302.773.89 (Morgedal) & 690.094.75 (Malm + Luroy). Five stars *****. Highly recommended.
This guy brought out the Excel spreadsheet for a bed review. 10/10 sir, I love the thorough approach
Same! Must give credit where it’s due.
These are the youtube reviews I like most. Just a dude who bought the bed and says his opinion on it. 👍
Having had it for 3 years now - is there any sagging or damage yet?
Kinda late but just want to add this is like the only legit mattress review on youtube. All mattress reviews are all sponsored and paid sponsors on youtube and online now its kind of hard to believe what those guys are saying.
Those so called bed reviewers on the first page of google are just pure bs. All they do is write some bs, then recommend their sponsored beds. Some of these are actually just manufacturers promoting their own beds. Only low iq people fall for that crap.
Great review! Extremely detailed! Even an excel spread!?
I have a back injury and I'm a belly sleeper. The pitting of a regular mattress makes my back hurt.
I'm buying this tomorrow. Thanks for the review!
I've been eyeing the Malm bed for a few weeks now, trying to make up my mind . LOL! This review was soooooo helpful! Thanks so much :)
me too. did you get it>?
DId u get it yet?
I did a few months ago & I love it! My best friend & I put it together in about 2 hours. I also got the matching dresser & nightstand, which I put together myself. My bedroom is beautiful! 😍😍
do you think i can add a box spring?
Is the mattress still firm? Any update in 2019?
It’s very hot, I sweat every night but it’s nice mattress firm - also it’s not for belly sleeper because I get up with shoulder pain everyday
Bruh you should never sleep on your belly
It is quite firm at first, however the center starts to sag within months and not even a year later it sagging so much that I can't tolerate it anymore. (We are 2 140lb sleepers) Looking for the receipt but return isn't as easy as purchasing as it's one of those rolled up beds. I would avoid if you need a bed to remain firm.
amazing review, you can work for Ikea Marketing!! lol
Thanks, my friend!
so....hows the bed frame doing?i feel like after all this time it would start making more and louder noises since its wood?im about to buy a king bed frame but im worried about the long term quality because my current bed frame is wood and used and it makes absolutely so MUCH noise. so does anyone know? really looking wanting advice from people who have had it for more than 3 years.
did you find an answer?
Nice Video. Thanks for the extra. (Pros, Cons)
Thanks Ryan.
Is good for vertical mambo?
Mattress doesn't last or keep shape. Major sagging after 6 months.
I assume you bought the medium firm version
great review - Ive cancelled my original order (medium-firm) and gone with your advice of firm - we've a similar body shape so I reckon thats the way to go - thanks 😃
This is a really niche review but honestly exactly what I'm looking for haha
Thank you!
Soo Wholesome and Super Helpfull!! Pretty sure i'm going to get this one. Thanks for the video :))
The Morgedal mattress will sag in the middle because this is where the main "comfort zones" are. These zones are created by cut-outs that run the width of the mattress, which create a softer area by essentially weakening the structure. The cut-outs are closer together and deeper in the middle, so this is where you are more likely to sink, and this is also the area that will wear much faster.
This can be mitigated by filling the cut-outs with strips of foam of a similar density, possibly from an unworn section of an old mattress.
Finally purchased the Ikea Morgedal in Firm and I love it! It is very firm!
Hi, Is this a foam or spring mattress?
Jewelcok foam
He did say he was 260 lbs. A firm mattress would be perfect for someone his weight and size.
Is this bed squeaky ? When u move
how high is it from the frame to the floor? I have a pillow top mattress and need height so I can watch tv. thanks
I was watching this with a smile...and the reason why is because I've choose the same mattress because of the same reasons you enunciated 😂
I went for the Morgedal mattress because it was the firm and most comfortable for me (1,83m tall/93kg or 6ft tall/something in stones or whatever pounds -heavy 😂)
I had absolutely no budget restrictions so I could choose anything and still I went for this one...and it's cheap!
Ps: delivery in the US is expensive as hell 😐
Just bought mine today - letting it air out for a bit before putting sheets and bedding on it. I too chose the firm option - it just felt right when I store-tested it. Hoping it helps me sleep better and stops me waking up with hip, leg, and abdominal pain (old mattress was a 14 year old spring mattress - broken springs and big sag in the middle). Yeah, I'm a heavy girl, so I'm sure firm was the way to go.
I watched your video and bought the extra firm mattress. I don't know if they sent me the wrong but after one day sleeping there was indent where my body rested. very disappointed
Hello thanks for the review! I would like to ask if the bed is 160x200cm or 180x200cm
well i buy that kind of madrass i have but medium hard, and then i also usual order a bedding madress, to make it more comfy ^^ i have a 120 bed soon uppgrading to 160
Give a 3 year update!
10/10 on this video!
Hey! Not sure if you’re gonna see this comment years later after the video was released, but what is that black nightstand looking thing to the left of the bed in the beginning of the video? Is is perhaps also from ikea? Great video!
Thank you for your review! How did the mattress do? How long did it hold up for you? Thank you!!!
it's not noisy that much
Great Review And Good Looking Out, Definitely Buying This Now
3 months in and the mattress is a doughy mess. I've never had lower back pain until buying this mattress. Save your money and your back. Get a standard spring mattress.
"do stuff on the bed" THANK YOU, i was looking for a review that had some kind of input on this, buying it now.
Hi can one use adjustable bed in with the malm frame ? Thanks !
Is this mattress good for side sleepers with back pain? Any side sleepers who are using this mattress (firm), please respond. Thank you!
Thanks for the video. How is the bed holding up?
I just put my queen size mattress on my malm bed, but it’s too long from the front, any solutions?
When did u buy this bed that u got it so cheap .. I'm seeing it for 400+ candian dollars right now and it's on sale
Good review. And yes it is best to buy the firm version of this mattress. Not medium firm. Unless a light person, don't expect it to last more than 2 or 3 years. Which is excellent for the cost.
Facts! I didn't go malm bedframe, got the songesand/queen with lonset, best sleep ever and I'm 1-2months into it, but didn't get mattress from ikea
Hi I'm interested in getting the Malm bed.....Do you know if you can get this bed+ mattress in twin?
you think this malm bed would be sturdy enough handle a move? like from location to location?
Unkle Corky you should probably disassemble it first
I dont know about this bed specifically, scrolling the comments for long term reviews on the bed. My wife and I furnished half our house in germany with ikea furniture. We moved to arizona, then wisconsin. We still have and use all of the furniture and it held up no problems at all in our moves.
I am 14 and I weigh about 320 pounds and the bed doesn't work for me
Dude wtf 320 at 14. Seriously unhealthy
@@f1playlist308 no that's a good weight
No sales tax in Oregon (:
It was a bit too firm for me after some time and 100 days after, they want exchange it for a softer, so I figured Tistedal Topper could fill the discomfort. The topper cost more than the mattress but it does magic. I would highly recommend the combination for those of you who would like that extra hour in bed....
Thank you, I was really wanting to get this bed because the matching aesthetic to my room, and I didn’t know from the reviews if I should or not
is it firm?? btw how tall are you? thanks!
if my kids were to jump on it would the would break
why are the edges of the bed so thick ?
Very nice and detailed review. Thank you!
Thanks Julie!
My partner has this bed and its honestly ruining our relationship. It's so poorly designed, if you get a soft mattress it will sink below the frame when getting in and out of the bed which feels really uncomfortable. Also ours is black and has a thick blanket draped over it, meaning I constantly misjudge where the edge is because for whatever reason it couldn't be designed to sit flush under the mattress, so the corners take out my shins when walking around the outside, meaning it doesn't work in any apartment that is tight on space. lastly it creaks really loudly after awhile, waking both of us up in the night, something a lot of people complain about. I hate this bed with a passion.
How many inches of storage space is available under the bed frame?
is the bed mattress good? its comfortable to me and I don't want to spend on mid- high end mattress that cost 500 - 2k
Hi did the mattress come rolled up
wait so u can change the size of
it how??
Man where’d you go
How strong are the slats? Would a 250 pound man with a mattress be able to sleep on this withou the slats snapping on him?
The first fire station I worked in had all slat beds. We had multiple guys sleeping on slats over 250lbs no problem.
I bought mine and is sooo squeaky
Great video
Perfect option for anyone on a budget.
Would any mattress Fit in the bed frame?
For the Malm bed frame (and most other IKEA bed frames) you can choose the size: twin, full, queen king. So, the answer is yes, but check IKEA's web site to be sure: ikea.com
whats the size of this in cm ?
Do you any higher quality bed frames that look like the malm bed frame?
Any updates on the bed frame holding up ??
do you need a mattress base for this bed? i'm not sure how beds work lmao
no, you don't need a mattress base. the frame comes with slats which support your mattress.
@@activity10cc Slats are sold separately. It says so on the website. Don't know if they might have changed it or not
Love this really helpful!!!
Thanks Erin! Glad I could help you!!
Is this a memory foam mattress?? Are these good?
Great review. Any updates on how the mattress is doing comfort wise these days??
After 6 months, the Morgedal mattress is still very comfy and firm. I like it firm.
activity10cc Thank you!
You're welcome.
@@activity10cc how is it after 3 years?
@@russbohman9577 Mattress will last 1 year max. Major sagging.
thanx
Well I guess I'm going tomorrow to get a mattress!
Hey how can I take off the cover?
the review is about 6 months old now, how do you like the mattress now?
A tiny bit of sag, but that's because I'm 260 lbs, and it takes a few days for the mattress to expand to its shape, so there's always a little sag. If you're 150 lbs or less, it won't be an issue. It still gets 5 stars. It sleeps cool, is firm and I wouldn't trade it for another one. For the price you get a lot of bang for your buck.
Awesome review! Thank you, that information is perfect :) I am still mattress shopping. I did not realize you had replied until just now. Thank you for replying. I definitely think this is going to be the choice.
Thanks so much sir
No offense but strong and sturdy? You just got it.. you have no clue how it will feel in 5 or 10 years. And thats what matters.
Obviously there are a lot of factors that influence how long a bed will last like how much fucking goes on, how often the bed gets moved, how many kids bounce on it, how often you roll over at night, etc. But I'm guessing with typical use by 1-2 people and a dog or a cat, the frame and mattress will last at least 5 years. That's based on my observation of the materials and how everything fits together. Good luck finding a 5-year review.
p
Mine is a 7 year old mattress and it's still firm
I've had my ikea furnitures for more than 10 years they're still in perfect condition. :) It really depends what you do with them and how you take care of them.
was this Morgedal Firm Foam or spring mattress?
This is really helpful! Thank you!
you said it doesnt move around but is that because your on carpet? have you tried on wood floor?
Have not tested in on a wooden floor. You could use adhesive rubber strips in place of the feet that come with the frame.
activity10cc good idea thanks
I got it for 20, no complaints
how did you get it for 20?
How did that mattress hold up?
Mattress firmness will only last a couple months. Major sagging after 6 months, even with rotating. Expect to toss after 1 year.
thank you for the review
So with a bed like this do I even need a box frame, or is my mattress & the slats enough?
No box frame needed. Just mattress + slats. Unless you want the added height of a box frame. But I find just the mattress + slats + frame to be a good height.
thanks for the quick reply! :)
Does the foam in mattress get hot as you sleep on it?
No. I've had my mattress for 6 months now, and I've never woken up because it's too hot. It sleeps cool. Also, I have the Angsvide mattress protector on top in addition to fitted sheet.
is it possible to replace the slats with a box spring?
Yes, no problem. You can use a box spring instead of slats.
Thanks for the upload, I went to the IKEA store where I bought the Morgedal mattress, just took me 30 seconds to figure this was the best mattress for me (I was sick and tired of my old ones which were much more expensive).
I only saw the name of the mattress later when I looked at the order in my email. Then googled for some reviews on the internet and found yours.
What stunned me about this video though is seeing the amount of shipping you had to pay in the US.
I'm in Holland and I paid 5 euros (about 6.50 dollars) shipping. The car I was driving wasn't able to carry it right away otherwise I would just put it in the car.
The seller explained me that I could buy anything in the store and have it send home if it fits in a huge cardboard box and weight no more then 30kg (about 65 pounds).
For the money you pay to get it delivered it's probably cheaper to drive to a store if that is an option of course.
That said, fine mattress nonetheless, I combined it with my old IKEA top mattress which is an even better combination then using it on its own.
How does the mattress hold after a year?
It sags a bit in the hip area. But all you have to do is rotate the mattress 180 degrees so your head is where your feet were and you have a brand new mattress. And, the areas that sag are restored and remain firm.

idek hes so cute aw
Lmfao clown
Is this memory foam?
Not memory foam.
No memory foam it is made of plywood that is why it is so firm lmao
Just one question: Is this the foam mattress or the latex mattress? That is how Ikea describes them both. Please advise. Good review!
This data is from IKEA's web site. Hope it helps!! This is for the Morgedal firm Queen-size...
Comforter filling/ Part 3: Polyester/viscose (rayon) fiber wadding
Lining/ Part 04: Non-woven polypropylene
Part 05: High-resilience polyurethane foam (cold foam) 2.2 lb/cu.ft.
Part 06: Polyurethane foam 1.7 lb/cu.ft.
Ticking: 64 % cotton, 36 % polyester
Ticking: 64 % polyester, 36 % cotton
Ticking: 50 % polyester, 50 % viscose/rayon
My slats keep falling off even though I have the 4 strouts in, what can I do?
Hmmmmm. I'm assuming you have the Luroy slats. But it should be the same for any IKEA slats. You have to make sure that you have the two end slats BEYOND the white pegs on the rails. You'll need to stretch each set of slats so that the last slat is beyond the white pegs. That secures the slats at each end of the rails. Hope this helps!!
You're a big guy?
he said 260 that's not small
