BUY THIS NOT THAT - Best & Worst IKEA Products

[@pattyyung]

I'm thinking you may be going towards a more (but not comoletely) industrial look? It's not my thing, but I have seen some great rooms done in that style.

[@lizziecallaghan4995]

I loved this format, a part two would be awesome :D

[@HomeByMon]

Yaay 🥰 So happy you like it 💞

[@brendagregoryyuen4923]

Mars is so gosh darn adorable!!!! He's the star of the show. I like this format and enjoy your opinions as to which products are worth the purchase vs. which are not!

[@HomeByMon]

I'm so glad fo hear you liked the video 🥰 And you are absolutely right, Mars is a real star 💞

[@Bonafidevixen10032]

I love this kind of video! Ikea has a giant catalogue. I dont even want to go through everything. This wittles it all down for me. Great job.

[@HomeByMon]

Thank you so much for the kind comment 🥰 I'm so happy to hear you like the video and find it helpful - it means a lot 🤗💕

I have the Brönden rug and love it! I liked this video, Mon! Please do more like it! Specifically bedside table and outdoor chairs. Thanks!

[@HomeByMon]

I'm so glad you like it!! 🥰 Will do!

[@ainnurhanimsuhaimi796]

totally gonna get the ostano chairs in both red and green. it looks perfect!

[@HomeByMon]

@@ainnurhanimsuhaimi796 so glad you like it and agree 🤗

[@DecoratewithManas]

Great video as always! Could you plz tell me which video editor you use to edit your videos? I love how you use 2 dynamic zooms in one frame while showing the products. Love that effect!

[@HomeByMon]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you like the video 🥰 I use Premiere pro, however, I do the zooms on Canva ☺️

The Agen chair is so comfortable though, I sit in it all the time! And I think it looks quite pretty actually, especially with a nice pillow and blanket on it.

[@HomeByMon]

Yes, you are right about that!

[@sarahfara1539]

@@HomeByMon I agree with you though that of course it’s very unoriginal cause everyone has seen this chair a thousand times

[@Hereforthetea12]

@sarahfara1539 but we keep seeing it for a reason. This style aged so well and will continue to I think. I love my Chair for indoors with a pillow!

[@AiChooTan-c2z]

I buy 3 pks of this curtains it's very cheap n beautiful ..I like it ❤

[@24ghosh24]

I have the Nilsove rattan chair as my dining chair and the one in 4:06 in my balcony as an outdoor chair. They look great.

[@Zeno-dv6qg]

I love Kallax, but you’ve definitely steered me towards the VITTSJO instead. It looks sleek, like you said, and I think it would be easier to put together…and lighter to move.

[@HomeByMon]

I'm so glad you liked my video and agree with me 🥰

[@kobebrooks3179]

Hey Mon thanks for the suggestion with the Malm over Songesand I know you mentioned the oak veneer color looks good, but if a room has all white background. Is it better to go with the white Malm or the oak veneer Malm?

[@anaa.6619]

I need this to become series😍 I love Ikea products but I have quite a few fails😅

[@HomeByMon]

So glad you all like it!! 🥰💞 It has to become a series now 😅

[@sueripley252]

I agree with most of your comments! Although I have the wicker chairs you don't like at my cottage that I use indoors because they take up so little space. But I find them comfy with sheepskin mats over the backs and the cushion on the seats! I really enjoy your videos!

[@HomeByMon]

Yes, you are right about that 🙌 They take up little space and are comfy. Plus, I could totally imagine them with the sheepskin mats 😍

[@R.V.8998]

A wonderful and practicable video, super!!!!!!! I love it......

[@martinadobiasova7265]

I like this video and I want to watch more episodes like this ❤

[@HomeByMon]

Thank you so much!! 🥰 I will do more!

[@naynesia4953]

Totally DISAGREE with LAGTRYCK lamp. It depens on what style your space are going for. I want white korean aesthetic and that is perfect. Clean line is boring and bland

[@HomeByMon]

You might be right 💕 It all comes down to personal taste at the end of the day

[@gerald8573]

Thank you for showing that the lack is made out of cardboard. I bought it online without informing myself / reading through all of it and was so disappointed when I got it. It's so trashy.

[@HomeByMon]

@@gerald8573 so sorry you got disappointed that way 😞 There should have been more info when people sell online ❣️

[@gerald8573]

@@HomeByMon No worries! I think I was just lazy and not reading every detail... 😅 I just want to say: Your videos are so helpful and entertaining at the same time! You provide important information in a fun and enjoyable way. My wife and I watch your videos together. She says you look gorgeous btw 🤭

Could you please do some Night Stands and End tables

[@HomeByMon]

Will do!!! 💕

[@luisbarvalopez]

Great video!

[@SilentHillFetishist]

Don´t buy paper lamps for rooms where random people are. They won´t care about letting the centering bent touching the stand. They bump it and let the bulb touching the paper and won´t turn off lights, when they leave a room. This causes fire and I recall a particular incident.

[@HomeByMon]

Yes! You are so right about that! 👏

[@60bidule]

I loved it! what about a part 2?

[@HomeByMon]

Coming up next week! Stay tuned

[@cmfad7427]

Terima kasih kerana membantu saya memilih produk yang lebih berbaloi di Ikea

[@PatsyC57]

I get to decorate my own space and to me those metal items, yikes no, they look cheap and lack warmth and personality.

[@HomeByMon]

Yeah, you might be right, but they can add sophistication and coolness to an already warm space :)

[@marias.7025]

I have Rattan chair Agan at home, an I very very happy with them! They look great, they are cosy and I can put them everytime out if I have many guests. So I am not agree 😂

[@HomeByMon]

Sure, I bet they look great and they are cozy 💞 Please don't take my critique seriously, at the end of the day what matters the most is that they work for you, and you are happy about them 🥰

[@sarahfara1539]

@marias.7025 I agree with you, I love my Agen, it's so comfy! I sit in it all the time, in fact it's the main chair I use even on my desk because I like to have my legs inside the chair and it's spacy and sturdy enough for that :)

[@freedomofreligion3248]

Thanks, Mon! Many more!!!!

6:23 not at all the point of the vid but the way they’re trying to charge 2000$ for like 3 pieces of wood is INSANE

[@HomeByMon]

Yes, they are so expensive 😅 And I can't believe Ikea's are so similar for only $99 🙌

[@luniasta]

In a lot of cases your advice seems to be to just spend 2-4 times more. It's not realistic, unfortunately. A lot of people buy those cheap items because that's all they can afford. It would be interesting to see you take price into account more and suggest nice items in similar price point, like with the bed frames here.

[@Hereforthetea12]

Nah she's wrong the one chair looks amazing in doors

[@HomeByMon]

You might be right 😅 It's all about personal taste at the end of the day, so no hard feelings 🤗💕

[@Hereforthetea12]

@HomeByMon oh shoot I meant to make this more of a joke with added "lols" it's all about preferred taste. You're wrong for this lol is how I meant this hahah. It's great for outdoors, tho too, like you said. I'm actually using this chair for my makeup/vanity chair no word of a lie it looks amazing.

[@HomeByMon]

@@Hereforthetea12 Oh that sounds so nice! I could totally imagine it as a vanity chair 👍 And please know that your comment is valid even if you are not adding the "lol" 🥰 Since I made this video, I've seen so many great uses of this chair, that I'm starting to change my opinion on it 😅💕

[@Hereforthetea12]

@HomeByMon honestly add a pillow and a throw blanket when not in use I swear it's beautiful! I went for a real rustic look tho for my space with some farm side photos and sage greens/whites/ very dusty bulsh tones and some plants with a vintage ruge with dusty colours. It's turned out so well lol.

[@Hereforthetea12]

​​@@HomeByMonyou seem so polite and sweet btw!!!!!! Sooo kind. Also I've been using the tables you're talking about like a stool/seat like an idiot. They're tables!?? I'm an idiot hahaha

[@fufufuaru]

so many people are recommending the linneback chair, but they just look like lawn chairs or cheap chairs to me 😭

[@SilentHillFetishist]

Don´t buy MALM bed low, the low version is too low for any Chinese under bed zip bag. Also don´t buy honeycomb material beds, if you care about noise.

[@HomeByMon]

Nice tips 🥰 Thanks
