IKEA has officially begun phasing out the beloved MALM series, replacing it with a new and safer alternative: STORKLINTA. But what exactly is different between these two lines of bedroom furniture? Here's everything you need to know if you're considering a switch or just curious about the change.

As IKEA begins phasing out long‑standing favorites like the HEMNES series, many shoppers are wondering what the replacements really offer. One such newcomer is GULLABERG, a new line of dressers and bedroom storage that brings a more modern construction while keeping a traditional aesthetic.

The IKEA KALLAX shelf isn't just a smart storage unit, it's also a stylish and affordable way to divide a room. But what truly makes it functional and beautiful is how you fill it. Choosing the right boxes, baskets, and inserts can enhance privacy, add texture, and help you stay organized.

If you're searching for a furniture collection that seamlessly combines modern functionality with timeless design, the TONSTAD series from IKEA might be exactly what your home needs. With its calm oak veneer, clean lines, and versatile elements, TONSTAD brings warmth and elegance to any room.

KALLAX is a fan favorite when it comes to dividing space, but it's not always the easiest to move around. If you live in a small apartment, like to change up your layout often, or just want something lighter, IKEA has several room divider options that are stylish, portable, and easy to fold or roll away.


Here you will find all the IKEA kitchens we have filmed.


Mauritz believes that the right combination of furniture, color, and decoration can transform any space, whether it's a cozy kitchen or a spacious living room, into a place of comfort and creativity.
