Mine that is not orthopaedic seem hard too. Although I wake up with the heavier part of my body sunk in the mattress. My body end up aching. Just get a fluffy mattress cover.
once ir body sinks into ur mattress, know its time to change it.

Orthopedic mattress !!!
But do you live in an orthopedic hospital ? Orthopedic mattress should only be used on medical recommendations and not because you hear say Na for big boys.

Hello nairaland

I bought an orthopedic mattress yesterday and I slept on it last night and I've come to discover that it's too hard for me. It's not bouncy at all, and feels like I'm lying on a rock.

I'm 72kg, and in not suffering from any joint conditions.. I only bought the mattress because it was recommended by the seller as a 'good and durable mattress'

What do I do next? It's just too hard for me to endure and I don't know if it's going to get any better (or get slightly soft so that I can enjoy the mattress

Thank you for reading.
You can get a mattress topper to soften it up. You made a good investment as you won't be needing a change of mattress any time soon.

For your weight, 72kg, if the chances of you adding more weight is slim, kindly by Vita Corona or Vita Grand, both has the same density, the different is the covering. Corona has normal fabric while Grand is quilted.

Note: I read up here that you got your orthopedic mattress for #110,000? That price is shocking. What is the dimensions of the mattress too?
pls I can’t see the image you attached

No you're not asking many questions. If you're gonna add more weight soon, then but Vita Haven or Supreme.
First image is normal fabric, while the second is quilted.

But if you're buying either Vita Haven or Vita Supreme, they both come as quilted.

As to the price, I do not know. Someone on this thread mentioned they currently work with Vitafoam. If you're in the South West part of Nigeria, I might only be able to direct you to a nearby store though.

Love your response. Smart and restrained from vexation. The way it should be.

I use the same type. Bought it 4 years ago and I have no regret. You'll get used to it.

That's even what I want.

All these soft mattresses after you wake up they'll be giving low waist pain because the waist regions sinks inside for several hours while you're lying down.

My next mattress must be orthopaedic. I wish we can even swap. I hope you get used to it.

Get a mattress topper.

Just do like Dominique said
You don't mean it and I have been planning to buy ur type? The one am currently using is a hard one.
Re: My New Mattress Is Too Hard by Pharaoh4rin(m): 1:57pm On Dec 26, 2024
Nigeria do not have good mattress. It's only vitafoam of old that's OK to some extend.

Didn't see this before I commented.


I use simba hybrid 11 layers.

They have 14 layers already.
Don't know if I can squeeze out money to buy that mattress again. Went for it under duress but it is worth it.
Go for it if u can afford it again, getting my parents one by January

If you're still typing from that mattress after eight years, I'd say you got used to it. 🙂
That's the only mattress in my bedroom and I have no intention of changing it just yet.(A king size mattress)

My wife has abandoned it for the guest room for over 3 years now due to unending sleepless nights and body pains.

Besides, my entertainment gadgets are in my bedroom

Use the other side of the mattress.

Oh, I know Prestige. It's one of the Chinese products emerging in the market due to its comparative cheapness with respect to top Nigerian mattress brands.

As for the options I recommended, a 4½ by 6 by 8" mattress that can carry 80kg for those brands currently cost:

• Mouka Flora - 106k
• Royal Gallant - 103k
• Unifoam - 98k
thank you so very much.

Whoever has the most counts this time. Even if 4 persons will sleep on it, you're gonna base your judgement on whoever weighs the most

No, only the individual body weight matters. Not cumulative. For a couple, the weight that needs the most consideration is that of the heaviest person.

It's funny that I just bought this mattress. Galaxy Classic 6x4.5x8.

It was delivered on Tuesday (25/03/2025). Strange that I have to research after buying this.

I will call them this morning to see if I can change it. (Hopefully the accept it, I have removed the nylon covering).
