For homeowners who are in the process of renovating their home, IKEA’s Combi Mesh Basket is a great item to pick up. It comes with a pull-out lever that lets you see what’s inside at a glance, and it also keeps air circulating so that clothes and other textiles are always clean and fresh.
Its biggest advantage is that it changes the traditional way of storing cabinets by using a mesh basket pull-out model. This not only ensures breathability, but also allows you to find what you need at a glance, greatly improving storage efficiency.
However, it should be noted that its size is fixed and cannot be customised or altered. So when customising the cabinet, you need to reserve the corresponding dimensions, and when installing it, you can just fit it directly.
The advantages of these small items from IKEA are very obvious, cost-effective, and the design is small and exquisite, easy to match and use on a daily basis, which can bring a lot of convenience to your life. But IKEA also has some products are not very recommended, especially wooden furniture.
Ⅱ. Not recommended IKEA wooden furniture
Ikea’s many wooden furniture style is good, the price is also relatively cheap, but for the decoration of white people, it is easy to step on the pit. In particular, the following models, although the market is the net red models, but the quality is really very general.
Hannes sofa bed
Hannes sofa bed is a typical net red product, many homeowners choose to get it because of its value and practicality, but its quality is not satisfactory.
A netizen shared that the same sofa bed in his house was only used occasionally, and most of the time it was in an idle state, but it was less than a year before the nails all fell apart. At a closer look, the material of this bed is not good, only the bottom gear is made of solid pine, the rest of the part is all synthetic materials, mainly chipboard and fibreboard, durability is very poor. Such a quality, really let a person not dare to praise.
Classic small square table
The Classic Small Square Table is a classic design that can be used for multiple purposes and also matches perfectly with other furniture in your home. It is compact, removable and easy to assemble.
However, a netizen had a bad experience. He felt that the legs of the classic small square table at home were too long, and he intended to cut off a section, only to find that the legs were actually hollow. From the outside, he thought the legs were laminate, but after cutting them, he found that only the ends were filled with less than 2 inches of compressed wood shavings, and the middle was a thin laminate, which was still hollow.
There is also a homeowner, he purchased a dining table from Ikea, once drunk accidentally punched a hole in the table, I did not expect the table so brittle, the inside is actually cardboard. This shows that the quality of these wooden furniture is really questionable.
In conclusion, when shopping for wooden furniture from IKEA, make sure you look carefully at the material of each panel. If you can’t accept man-made boards such as chipboard and fibreboard, think carefully so that you don’t regret it when you buy it home.
Ikea has many affordable and practical goodies, but also some poor quality products. I hope you can keep your eyes peeled when shopping and pick out the goodies that really suit your home, making life more comfortable and better.
