IKEA TOLKNING STORAGE BENCH unboxing and review | NYC Studio Apartment Makeover

I found the perfect ikea storage bench! Here's my first impressions on the Ikea TOLKNING Storage Bench...now where should I put it. If you've seen my other videos, you know I was searching high and low for the perfect, affordable storage bench. I almost settled on one from Wayfair but then I saw Ikea's Tolkning bench and it just stood out to me so much more than the others. Also check out how many blankets I can store, now that I built it the correct way!

this was super helpful! thank you

[@fridafrancisco2753]

Lmao. I looked up this video because my brother and father did exactly what you did... try to install it the wrong side up... you saved us from ruining the bench!

[@HeyitsKimberlee]

Hahah! Glad I’m not the only one

If it was me, I would figure out a way to add hinges especially if I was going to access the interior of the bench daily. There’s probably plenty of KZbin video on adding hinges and probably many detailing various types of hinges. Here I am still trying to figure out a good way to find an aesthetically pleasing bedroom hamper setup -I used a faux leather storage bench once, and currently use two large metal trash cans from Target stuck inside my closet (unfortunately blocks access to things). Reorganizing my room and looking to possibly use a storage bench again. This Tolknig bench might be an option but so is another faux leather ottoman or bench.

Great tip! Since it’s warmer out I find myself not needing access to it on the daily so not having hinges hasn’t bothered me yet. I currently have my hampers in my closet too lol I love the idea of disguising them if you want more access in your closet.
