HAPPY SUNDAY!🏡☺IKEA is filled with a bunch of hidden gems you probably didn't know existed!! I'm sharing with you all of my favorites you should know about!!

[@miraclevaughn7310]

Hi from Baltimore love your videos. Such a big fan.

[@mariamangion21]

Hi from Malta 🤩

[@lilianarosu6006]

IkEA SCP-3008 scp-3008 #####

[@lenavarg3321]

Did you know that the little nightlamps name "mörkrädd" means afraid of the dark? Love your channel, greatings from Sweden "motherland" of IKEA 🇸🇪!

[@lilianarosu6006]

IkEA SCP-3008 scp-3008 ######

[@avaariisisi]

So fun fact in Nordic countries having a roll out garbage under the sink is just the norm lol so wild to see someone getting excited over it ♥

[@FurnitureFan]

It's a great idea, thanks for sharing! I hope they do larger bins for laundry also. I really like it that they come with lids as well .

[@Maiju86]

Not only in Nordic countries... Everywhere in Europe I think.

[@janetpendlebury6808]

They are the norm in Australia as well.

[@swiinka]

​@@Maiju86 definitely not everywhere in Europe, in the UK and Ireland they're very rare

[@amy4484]

Been a norm in the US for awhile too.

[@tatanyc713]

Loved the toy storage bench the wood cutter, and the induction stove.

[@darlaburnett8666]

I wish you could like and dislike videos because I love the IKEA videos but I don’t have one that is within an hour of me. All of the IKEA stores that we have in our general facility are at least minimum three hours away granite when I drive from Texas to Tennessee. Yes I stop at the IKEA store in Memphis we make it a point to go to the IKEA store. Now, as far as your video goes everything that you showed us those are really cool and neat products because a lot going to IKEA. We’re not thinking about those type of products so we’re just looking at the big ticket items so displaying those and showcasing them for us is a really good deal thank you. I appreciate that. I appreciate that

[@heavenlyglamhome3688]

I just spent hours in ikea the other day looking at a lot of things, it's amazing how much one still can miss ☺️

[@LukeFaulkner]

Love your vids, Kristen! If you ever want background music (I write instrumental, mostly piano music) I'd love to collab.

[@mirchen01]

The dish organizer 😍😍

[@autisticDane92]

the night light's name is so cute. mörkrädd = afraid of the dark. it might not make sense in english, but in danish/swedish it sounds adorable

[@og6920]

I thought the same thing. And the plug outlet protectors are called Patrol and Avoid. :-D IKEA product names are clever when translated!

[@daniellelemay2696]

You have THE best ikea videos on KZbin 👍🏻👍🏻💃🏼

[@thousandcold]

The cooling mattress is actually interesting

[@jessicawilliams775]

I have those ikea pull out bins, but not for trash and recycling. I use them for pet food bins! I took a shelf out of my kitchen island, and these luckily fit perfectly.

[@yoonhaeon]

Omg thanks for a new video! Watching right before bed ❤

[@joanwalford1959]

Thanks Kristen. I love the kitchen stuff. They are so affordable. I really enjoy these videos re Ikea stuff. I am always overwhelmed when I go there.

[@jpmccarthy33]

I have the roll out frame with the larger garbage bin it. Love it. I have the smaller ones just loose - one for compost, one for recycling.

[@ccadvisor489]

I love their glass food storage containers. Great sizes too.❤

[@miraclevaughn7310]

You always give the best advice and easy ways for us to shop. I appreciate all you do in the videos all together. All the way from Baltimore a big fan. ❤

[@sherryidibo2304]

I must go grab my IKea decor items for the spring organizing season. Thank you Kristen for the update.

[@amylewis7563]

I have those pegboard drawer organizers. Love them! I learned to assemble them and design ur layout on the counter, then place them in the drawer. Saves u from leaning over and adjusting the pegs while u figure out what u want to do. 🙃😉

[@margui6224]

I love the cooler matress, the shoe stalker, the puck lights, spa accessories, cutting boards and the pull-out bins. Thank you, Kristen.

[@wplains]

I like the drawer inserts but find most of them only fit the IKEA cabinets which is a pity as it makes them useless for other kitchen sized drawers.

[@goldenamik322]

I bring nightlights like the ones you showed when we travel. They are great for hotel bathrooms or unfamiliar spaces like an Airbnb!

[@victoriajerke5736]

Omg, how I LOVE all your ikea videos! Thank you!

[@kathysyphrit5713]

I was using that induction cook top in our RV so i didn't make a mess in the RV.

[@annwatson2164]

The robe definitely 😊

[@GlynisMarthinussen.]

I’m here for your genius ideas 🙌

[@nataliecinquemani-hv9dd]

Love these ideas

[@jayadama1301]

Perfect home ideas

[@Rositasparks]

Such great ideas! Thank you so much 😊

[@gloriaalex11]

The nearest IKEA is a 2-hour drive for me, but thanks for the vicarious tour. 🙂

[@melanieshort6190]

Ahhh ha moment for those shoe organizers!! Night light too!! Thanks for the ideas!!

[@mauroale1919]

I love when you make videos showing curious things from decoration companies like ikea. Thank you so much...

[@Multiplefandoms17]

The home decorating queen is back at it again with another banger! 😊♥️

[@mobil6969]

Ikea has open new store in Timisoara second city from Romania and offer 400 euro salary at month 😂 and they hope will find people accept this in a area were minimum salary are up 600 euros.

[@cleach5501]

Love IKEA. They have a lot of great ideas. I bought the shoe stackers. Best Buy ever.

[@hallmanager4911]

IKEA can be very overwhelming. You came up with some very useful items that i intend to buy - thanks!

[@lilianarosu6006]

IkEA SCP-3008 scp-3008 scpSCP××####$00

[@swiinka]

The shoe stacking thingies are a lifesaver, made my entryway organisation so much easier. Interesting video, thank you!

[@nans969]

Yah, the induction top is back. I want one for our camper. Update. I did get the induction unit. Haven't used it for the camper yet. I have been using it. Mostly to boil water. It boils so much faster.

[@Jilwith1L]

Such great info! Thank you.

[@ItsMeTheSteph]

Thank you for this! I new a couple of these, but loads of new stuff I didn’t know about.🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@HelenSch]

Absolutely LOVE the IKEA videos!

[@Happy2bme2dae]

Hey Kris, looking forward to watching this video as I'm due to go to IKEA soon👍☀️

[@Filomena4ever]

Actually in IKEA Canada the price for the recycling solution, with pull-out/ light gray , 20l (5 gallon) is $ 70.98 regular price. $ 61.98 on sale

[@kellybryson7754]

We just used the pick up option this week. It was great!

[@wendyhammond2957]

I love your videos!! I need yhe night lights and a cutting board love those!! Thank you for sharing!! Keep them coming!!😊🤗😚💖💕💗💖💕💖💗💖💕💖💖💕💖💗💕💖💕

[@cassandrad10]

I’ll be picking up the kids storage, thank you for the idea!

[@latashaburnard7778]

Thank you Kristen!!!

[@southernassweettea2228]

I have tat waffle robe! I love it!

[@gwendavis9655]

Kristen, I really enjoy these videos so yea, absolutely I am interesting in Ikea shopping so it’s very nice & enjoyed it.

[@carolfinn4027]

I need those chair pads. The tie ones are so bulky. Also like the under counter waste basket system.

[@sashac7002]

I think I found you through an ikea video and you really are so amazing at finding these hidden gems

[@kerrispahn3813]

I was just there yesterday( 2.25.23) I like the night lights, shoe rack…..It looks like I’m going back there or order online for pick up…

[@melindap.ullrich4564]

Thanks for sharing those products from ikea. Awesome stuff 😊

[@lkhfun6575]

The small cooktop would work in a tiny home.

[@diywithfariha]

Love the video ! Great ideas .. Thanks 😊

[@rachelchudley1527]

Some great picks ! Thank you 😘

[@danagrl64]

Awesome!! Gotta have the bed cooling pad for myself for summer and my grandson for always! He suffers being hot full time

[@fitnessoverfifty-suncoastfit]

So helpful! Really like those robes and the nightlights :)

[@janetk7196]

Congratulations on your engagement! Just saw your last post on Chris and Kris Podcast.

[@janetk7196]

@inbox-upits_kristen_mcgowanond scam

[@Andrew101]

Great video as always :)

[@vicihafley2123]

I could see using the toy bins for craft supplies. Use dividers or bins. Use them as a base for other storage.

[@melissaandrews6334]

Making my first IKEA trip THIS weekend and I'm so excited! You showed such wonderful items! I put 4 things in my favorite items so I can check them out while I'm there. Thank you for sharing!

[@devondagregg625]

Hey

[@cpma5094]

That was a great selection of useful, interesting and fun items. Thanks

[@joannajohnson696]

I buy IKEA bags, the blue ones, to shop. Love IKEA products. Thanks for update! Love you videos

[@urbanessencesalon]

That to funny! We just walked in the door frome Ikea and now I'm back at Ikea with you YAY! We are fortunate enough to have 2 Ikea"s in our area and both are about 9 miles in either direction from my home.

[@TheElla4real]

Great video, thanks for the inspiration

[@Adeline9418]

I love the Ikea kitchen section but you've given me other ideas!!!!!

[@yolandatroyer]

I have that bathrobe and love it!

[@stephanietm9960]

Really great ideas. Thank you so much!!! I love the kid's section 🙂

[@martinemathijs8160]

Visit ikea is allways like a roadtrip for me,I love it!

[@suzannerickles6169]

I haven’t been to IKEA since before the pandemic. I have been planning to go and this video makes me want to go right now. I can especially make use of the stackers for shoes and the nightlights.

[@Mm_bear]

Oh my goodness, this is a great video!! I love your vids!!! Thank youuuu

[@Lalidottii]

Heck yeah thank you!! Such a good video.

[@mariamangion21]

Love you & your videos 🤩

[@ninatang7015]

Very useful products!

[@mariettamarietta729]

Thank you. It wad very much helpful

[@MakedaBenjamin]

Love the ideas❤!

[@sherryobar5750]

Thanks that was great!

[@linaochrasmus]

The shoe organizers will probably be on my shopping list next time I go to Ikea. I must say that I just love the name of the nightlights. Mörkrädd = afraid of the dark. 😊

[@indygrammy]

Yay, a new video!!!

[@esztijezso1132]

Unfortunately in Hungary you have to pay extra fee for IKEA pickup orders. :(

[@strll3048]

Thank you.

[@bibimajeed7281]

I wish there was an IKEA close by me. There's one hours away.

[@klomax7089]

I love your IKEA videos! Tfs 😊

[@annaburtenheim5310]

I love that the name of the nightlights are "MÖRKRÄDD" or translated in to "Afraid of the dark"

[@mothersruin9058]

I love your videos!

[@jeanetteramos3527]

Great ideas thx

[@kathysyphrit5713]

I love the MY PILLOW TOPPER. MADE IN USA.

[@lagringa7518]

Ohhh sigh... I so miss Ikea here in Mexico. There's one in Mexico City, but it's like 6 hours away from me, too lazy. But those were some good picks, just love all these obscure but useful items!

[@foxandkatkitsch]

Thank you for these videos, I Just ordered the cooling mattress protector! I thought I better snap it up before it gets warm here (like June or July haha) the early bird gets the worm, right?

[@jennyberry2610]

hi Kris happy Sunday

[@arthurbarata735]

Eveyone said The scp 3008 is from IKEA

[@OliviaDaughter]

Thank you

[@marybaker8582]

Helpful

[@averagepurplecrayon8229]

Great video

[@sunshinefirua]

In my country pick-up at Ikea is *not* free. I would have to pay ~10-20$ depending on the amount of stuff I order.

[@StephAnie....]

In germany too...

[@RocketDoggi]

Same in Sweden...

[@FurnitureFan]

In Ireland we can click & collect free from IKEA stores. They do charge €3 for pick up at local stores instead. Still, who doesn't enjoy visiting IKEA? 😊

[@sunnymoon726]

Same in Norway

[@TheSquishStine]

Canada too. There’s a fee for the pick up option

[@sandylee1717]

Good items

[@alena4212]

IKEA has gotten soooo expensive!! I bought a queen bed from 3 years ago for $250 and now the same frame is $500 😱 But it’s good to see there are still some good deals and hidden gems!!

[@millymils]

I just noticed that! Was looking to repurchase an item and went down the rabbit hole of looking at other things I bought and everything was 50-75% more

[@wplains]

Blame inflation and the Covid lockdowns.

[@FurnitureFan]

My guess is that shipping has gone up this season. The good news is that if you consider secondhand listings, you can still get affordable IKEA items locally. I just bought a black table from a guy who was switching his colour scheme to white.

[@wplains]

@@FurnitureFan I bought two of their sofas second hand from a private seller and they were in really good condition.

[@janetpendlebury6808]

Everything has gone up in the last couple of years, shipping costs have almost doubled so I imagine that is one reason why.

[@peretzleah]

Ah man! The mattress cooling pad and puck lights aren't sold in my country. Bummer

[@loupalupus6798]

So fin to se how you look at Ikea! 😅 I never look at the furniture, but love all the "hidden gems" you are discovering. The "storage bins" that "double as a bench", i see as a bench whit storage. The madress cooler.. its very norma to have a madrass protector. The bedlinneds are very thin. I don't understand why you would not have a madrass over on,?😅
