| Specification | IKEA PAX Wardrobe Frame with Sliding Doors | TUFT & NEEDLE Original Queen Size Memory Foam Mattress |
|---|---|---|
| Price | ₹49,990 | ₹49,990 |
| Assembly | Required, roughly 3 hours, and genuinely a two-person job | None -- ships compressed and expands over 24 to 72 hours |
| Panel material | Particleboard and honeycomb-structure paper filling, foil finished. Very light for its size, and correspondingly not solid | Adaptive polyurethane foam over a support layer. Not memory foam in the viscoelastic sense |
| Weight | 105 kg | 32 kg |
| Weight capacity | Frame roughly 100 kg total; each internal shelf about 20 kg | Standard queen, 152 x 203 cm |
| Warranty | 1 Year Official Brand Warranty | 1 Year Official Brand Warranty |
| Construction | Board frame with honeycomb paper board panels -- this is how it stays light at this size | not published |
| Doors | Sliding, so no swing clearance needed, which matters in small Indian bedrooms | not published |
| Firmness | not published | About 6 on the 1 to 10 scale, which is medium-firm |
| Foam type | not published | Adaptive polyfoam, which responds faster than viscoelastic memory foam and traps less heat |
| Heat | not published | Cooler than true memory foam, which matters through an Indian summer |
| Humidity behaviour | Honeycomb board is more vulnerable to damp than solid particleboard, and cannot be repaired | not published |
| Levelling | Adjustable feet, and the floor must be level for the doors to run true | not published |
| Modularity | Interior fittings sold separately -- the frame ships nearly empty | not published |
| Off-gassing | not published | A smell for the first 2 to 3 days, which is normal for compressed foam |
| Slat requirement | not published | Needs slats under 7.5 cm apart or the warranty is void |
| Thickness | not published | 25 cm |
| Wall fixing | Mandatory. IKEA supplies the bracket and it is not optional on a 236 cm wardrobe | not published |
| What the scale means | not published | Under 4 is soft and suits side sleepers; 6 to 7 is medium-firm and suits back and combination sleepers; over 8 is firm |
Every row is a figure one or both products record. A blank is a figure the catalogue does not hold, not a zero.
