Built for the Outdoors

Crafted from galvanized and powder-coated steel, the BÅTSKÄR series is designed to resist moisture and changing weather. Its surfaces are easy to wipe down, and its sturdy frame ensures lasting performance season after season. Whether you're setting up on a patio, a deck, or in the garden, the collection is built to handle the real world – without sacrificing looks.

Modular Flexibility

BÅTSKÄR isn't just a grill – it's a complete system. The series allows you to mix and match different units depending on your needs. Whether you want a small cooking station or a full outdoor kitchen, the setup is entirely up to you. Key components include:

  • Grill Units: Choose between gas or charcoal grills, each designed with spacious cooking areas and practical features like built-in thermometers and side tables.

  • Sink Units: Some modules include built-in sinks, with open shelving below for storage. The integrated design is both functional and space-efficient, ideal for washing produce or prepping food outdoors.

  • Closed Storage: Cabinets with soft-closing doors keep your utensils, tools, and ingredients protected and organized.

  • Add-on Shelves & Bar Tables: Expand your space with additional shelves for extra storage or a high bar table for casual outdoor dining.

Design That Fits In

The series' dark matte finish and clean lines give it a modern, professional look. It blends easily with a range of outdoor styles, from rustic patios to minimalist decks. Despite its robust materials, BÅTSKÄR doesn't feel bulky – instead, it brings a refined, tailored feel to any outdoor setup.

Real User Experience

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.
