The IKEA ‘love it or exchange it’ policy
We know we all sleep differently so having the right mattress is essential. "Love it or exchange it" is our policy that allows you to try mattresses at home for 365 days. That means that, after trying your mattress and if it doesn't fit, you can change it.
Things to note: IKEA mattress exchange
- You can exchange your mattress once within 365 days after the purchase.
- The only condition is that it’s not dirty, marked or damaged*.
- The policy does not apply to IKEA's sofa-bed mattresses, children's mattresses or mattress pads.
- New mattresses often feel a bit too firm, so wait a month to get used to yours.
- It’s also important to choose the right pillow.
- Once you’ve found the perfect mattress for you, it's still covered by our 10-year IKEA mattress guarantee.
- If you want to exchange for a more expensive mattress, you’ll just need to cover the price difference between the original and the replacement.
- If the replacement’s price is less expensive than the original, we’ll credit the difference to a refund card.
