Best Cheap Mattress in Gauteng (2026)
Search "best cheap mattress Gauteng" and you'll see foam singles from R1,299, The Bed Guy from R1,999, and The Mattress Company's free delivery over R3,000 - all real options worth comparing. Worth being honest upfront: those are cheaper on paper than anything Mr Mattress sells. The question worth asking is what that lower price leaves out.
The smart cheap mattress in Gauteng is the Mr Mattress Comfort Foam - R2,399 for a single, with a published 50 kg/m³ density, a written 3-year warranty, and a 365-night home trial. Manufactured through our own Gauteng facility, delivered free.
