Smart IKEA ENHET Laundry Room Ideas – Perfect for Small Spaces

21.06.2025

Creating a functional laundry space in a small apartment or home can be a challenge – but IKEA's ENHET series offers an impressively flexible solution. Whether you're working with a closet-sized nook or a tight corner in the bathroom, this setup proves that style, storage, and practicality can all fit in just a few square meters.

🧺 Compact, Organized, and Budget-Friendly

In this IKEA showroom example, a full mini-laundry is built using only ENHET wall cabinets, a slim countertop, and two rolling laundry sorters. The setup fits neatly over a front-loading washing machine, creating both storage above and work surface on top – ideal for folding clothes, sorting laundry, or keeping baskets and detergents within reach.

💡 What Makes It So Effective?

  • Wall-mounted ENHET cabinets offer closed storage for items like cleaning sprays, towels, or dryer sheets – keeping everything dust-free and visually tidy.

  • The white doors and clean lines help reflect light, making the space feel bigger and brighter.

  • Dual laundry sorters on wheels allow for easy separation of colors and fabrics – and can be pulled out when needed, then hidden back under the counter.

  • The countertop spans the full width and is deep enough for both storage and functionality, while leaving the washer fully accessible.

🏠 Great for Apartments, Guest Bathrooms, or Tiny Homes

Whether you're outfitting a studio flat, building a tiny house, or simply reorganizing a guest room corner, this ENHET laundry combo shows how a little IKEA creativity goes a long way.
