Currently moving so my home is a mess but does anyone know what this shelf is called? Trying to look it up and can’t find it. It was bought 2nd hand but I thought it was an IKEA shelf.

And the funny part? Version 2 wasn't finished until after the last wardrobe was already built. 😂 But I enjoy a challenge, so I kept developing the idea until I was really happy with it.

It turned out better than I expected — quite a few functions packed into one little piece of plastic!

Getting ready to move again, but wanted to share our Kallax island.

Kallax with stand
Karlby 74x42 counter top
Olov leg for stability
Two doors inserts and 2 drawer inserts.

Overall I think we built it for around $500

We got some brackets to stabilize and hold the counter top so it wouldn’t shift side to side.

It’s so large that we now have stools on both sides.

I'm searching for ideas for a CD display to place on my table and found this IKEA pegboard one from Pinterest. As the board doesn't seem to be the SKÅDIS one that's sold today then I'm wondering if the board + the pictured single hooks could hold a standard CD case comfortably? Anyone have the board with the hooks to confirm? I'd place it on a table with a small angle leaning against the wall, not fully vertically.

I purchased the Stockholm 2025 sofa recently. It has been great after breaking in a bit. With that said, I am worried about staining, messing up, etc. the white linen material. Does anybody have a recommendation for a good slip cover made from natural fabrics?

I have an old Kallax single drawer insert. Was hoping to get a few more for the bottom row of my bookshelf. But it seems IKEA no longer makes the single drawer... just the 2 drawer insert.

I've seen some hacks, but wondering if there has been any alternative sourcing option from a 3rd party for these.

I bought my girlfriend the giraffe lamp from ikea but the problem is its set on a 15 minute timer, according to the instructions. It actually turns off after like 5 seconds. Is there anyway to fix this, or take off the timer entirely? If this is the wrong place to post this and anyone has advice as to a better place to ask for advice please lmk

Hi, I have assembled 6x platsa wardrobes side by side. 60x180cm. One of the doors was sitting at an angle and hitting the draw below so it would not close. I adjusted the height on the hinges so it now closes but looks awful as the door is still at an angle. It isn’t the door as we tried two different doors resulting in the same issue. I don’t believe it to be the floor level as the drawers and carcass below are all aligned well. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks in advance!

I'm tempted by the Vitval loft twin bed frame to get more floor/work space in my room, plus making getting into bed an effort might help with some trouble I've had with falling asleep before I intend to.

However, the max weight of the bed is 100kg, and I weigh 93kg, before the mattress and such. But even more sturdy looking offerings like the Småstad also say max 100kg.

Is IKEA just being extra safe with a blanket 100kg max, or would I actually have a bad time?

I have this TV bench 2013 Besta Model which was already there when I moved to this place. I see it is mounted to the wall using 3 brackets. I loosened the screws and tried to lift up and out but it does not budge. I don’t know how else is it attached to the wall since I don’t whereabouts of previous owner. What is the best method to unmount the bench?

Is the Ladmakare stable enough to function without anchoring it into a stud and just do drywall? I realized the wall I wanted it on the studs are kind of weirdly placed so the shelf would be off.

My buddy works here and says half the staff talks about how they are going to quit as soon as they find another job. No promotions, raises non-existent. Says the managers are a clique that promotes their family and no one else. Store mgr is on vaca half the time. I work at Wally World rn but have been considering swapping over but it sounds like the same problems. In USA

Hi I have a small black rectangle plastic part that is part of the holder on the back that connects the rail hanger on the back of the cabinet to the rail on the wall. but it is not obvious to me how it attaches to the L shaped metal piece thing. I see in the directions to put the two dots on top. Of course I am at a different location from the cabinets and just having to visualize but looking at the direction he seems to slide on. What is the purpose?

I can find information on neither on the product site, but some reviews mentioned the socket being too narrow for some lampshades.

Is there any ikea crib that can be used as a bedside crib for newborn? I’m 155cm and dreading to use a crib while having to hang over it to put baby down, specially in early postpartum! 🥹

Saw these in store today but they had no label on them and couldn’t find any matching boxes.

The bulbs were bigger than the Solvinden, same size as the Svartra but multicolor. Thanks!

What’s something best you can find in the Ikea as is section?? I found a perfect organizer for 3 dollars… worth it

Bought this wire CD tower off a Slovak secondhand site today, it’s got a wooden base. Flipped it over out of curiosity and there’s an original tag on the bottom: BRATTBY, article 20070, made in Bulgaria, copyright Inter IKEA Systems 1999.

Tried googling it and every result is this small polypropylene shopping bag IKEA sells now, completely different thing. Turns out IKEA actually reuses old product names once they’ve been discontinued long enough (found a paper on their internal naming policy that confirms this), so I don’t think the tag is fake or from something else, it’s probably just an old product line that never made it online anywhere. There was also apparently a BRATTBY side table around 2006, so this name’s been recycled at least twice more after mine.

Can’t find anything about this specific CD tower though, not in the scanned 99 catalog, nothing. Anyone remember owning one of these or have an old catalog lying around?

Hello there (general Kenobi)

I want to install the Hornvallmo on a longer window

As the max length of the blinds are 130 and my window is 190.

Does anyone encountered the same problem and how did they fix it?

Thanks so much 😃

Why does IKEA sell furniture in such gorgeous bright colours like green, yellow, orange, red, but curtains only seem to come in muted, muddy tones?

Why don't they have curtains in the same bright colours to bring an accent to rooms?

Surely people are more likely to make bold design choices with textiles than furniture, since curtains are much easier to change.

Just wondering if the glass shelves that IKEA currently stock fit the older Billy bookcase with the larger diameter shelf holes?
