IKEA always manages to revolutionize homes with simple but brilliant ideas, and its line of multifunctional furniture is no exception. These designs not only save space, but also add a touch of ingenuity to any environment. In this premise of multifunctionality, The FLOTTEBO is a sofa bed that adapts to different situations with ease. Its modular design allows you to remove the cushions to transform it into a large bed. Plus, it features a hidden storage compartment underneath, ideal for storing blankets, pillows or anything you need out of sight.
The TROTTEN desk is an example of adjustable functionality. You don’t need to rotate it, but you can adjust its height to turn it into a standing or sitting desk. This versatility makes it perfect for home offices or shared spaces. Now, let’s talk about a new children’s chair that IKEA introduced in recent weeks: it’s called SMÅSKRAKE, and it’s as simple as changing its position.
The IKEA baby chair that changes shape just by turning it over
IKEA has designed a multifunctional piece of furniture perfect for the little ones, called SMÅSKRAKE chair, specifically designed to adapt to the needs of a one-year-old child. This ingenious design offers three functions in one piece: it can be used as a low-seat chair, a high-seat chair, or a table. In addition, its size and height are adapted so that little ones can use it independently, either to sit, play or draw on a surface that is ideal for an A4 size sheet. The structure is made of steel tubes coated with durable paint and finishes that protect the floor from scratches.
The furniture combines functionality and Montessori style, encouraging children’s autonomy while remaining easy to clean thanks to its transparent lacquered bamboo surface. If you are looking for a more versatile solution, you can purchase two units to use as a table and chair set. This design is so practical that it has even delighted parents whose babies still prefer to play standing up or push the furniture as part of their exploration. The versatility and quality of this product make it an investment that will last for years.
This chair is now available in Ikea stores and is part of the fall-winter 2024 collections. It is priced at $29.99 and is made of bamboo wood with metal tubes painted in a nice dark green. It is now available in all IKEA stores in the United States, and also on its website.
Several customers comment on Ikea’s social networks the wonders of this chair. “I can’t believe how useful this SMÅSKRAKE chair is! I bought it last week for my son, and it has been a total change. He is only one year old and already uses it as if he was born for it. I love that it transforms just by turning it: low, high or table… It’s magical! In addition, it matches perfectly with the Montessori decor of your room, and the bamboo material feels super premium. It’s worth every penny of that $29.99.”
A proud dad said: “We bought it for our daughter, and I’m convinced it’s the best thing IKEA has done this year. The design is so ingenious that Even I get excited turning it to change its function. We use it as a table for his crayons and, when he doesn’t want to draw anymore, he pushes it all over the house without damaging the floor thanks to those finishes on the legs. Honestly, how can I not have two? The idea of having a table-chair set for less than $60 is second to none.”
