Five IKEA New Arrivals for Small Apartments: a Sit-Stand Workstation, Vertical Storage, and Low-Commitment Updates (Aug. 31)
Five current IKEA New listings for small apartments, WFH corners, and one-person living, with confirmed regional prices, dimensions, assembly estimates, and the caveats to check before ordering.
A current check of IKEA's regional new-product pages turns up five items that make sense in a small home: a sit-stand workstation, a bedside clock that can replace a phone alarm, a compact chest of drawers, and two low-commitment textile updates.
IKEA displays a current New label on the selected product pages. IKEA does not show the first-listed date for each SKU, so this issue treats the label as a current-status check rather than proof that every item first appeared between August 24 and August 31, 2026. Prices and listings below were checked on August 31, 2026. Store stock still depends on the selected postcode or store.

| KORTLINJE · 906.204.68 | A phone-free bedside alarm | 18 × 6 × 7 cm; 2 AAA backup batteries | Norway 299 kr; other regions not confirmed | None | Buy if temperature and humidity readouts earn the space |

| SÄTERVIDE · 306.324.12 | A one-bedroom refresh | Duvet 200 × 200 cm; 2 pillowcases | UK £25; other regions not confirmed | None | Buy if the 200 × 200 cm size matches the duvet you own |

1. TRAVSPORT / MARKUS: the WFH upgrade with a footprint to measure first
Best for: A remote worker who wants one workstation for sitting and standing.
Decision: Buy if the desk and chair are both on your shopping list. The UK listing bundles the electric TRAVSPORT desk with a MARKUS chair for £388. The desk raises from 72 to 117 cm, carries up to 80 kg, and adds a shelf and cable management. The 120 × 70 cm footprint suits a bedroom or living room wall, while the full bundle is a larger commitment than a laptop table. Skip it if 70 cm depth is already too much for your room, or if you already own a good chair. 2
Price and regional status: IKEA UK lists the current New bundle, article 396.212.06, at £388. A separate IKEA Korea desk-only listing for article 696.209.55 lists ₩349,000; the market and configuration differ, so the listing is shown only as a reference rather than a Nordic price. US, UK desk-only, Japan, and Sweden prices were not confirmed in this check. 12
Dimensions: The desk is 120 cm wide × 70 cm deep, with a height range of 72–117 cm. The raised shelf adds vertical storage without adding floor depth. 2
Assembly watch-out: High estimate. IKEA supplies separate guides for the tabletop, sit/stand frame, and MARKUS chair. The product page gives no official assembly time. Set aside floor space for several components, then check the relevant guide before starting. 2
Get it: TRAVSPORT / MARKUS desk and chair on IKEA UK. The desk-only regional detail page is TRAVSPORT on IKEA Korea.
2. KORTLINJE: a bedside clock that does more than remove one phone alarm
Best for: A small bedroom where the phone should charge away from the pillow.
Decision: Buy if a dedicated clock, two alarms, and temperature/humidity readouts justify a small bedside object. KORTLINJE has a 9-minute snooze, three display brightness levels, a 12/24-hour choice, and a display that can be turned off. Skip it if the extra readings will remain unused; the clock still needs a visible place and a power connection. 3
Price and regional status: IKEA Norway lists article 906.204.68 as New at 299 kr, including VAT. The product uses the included USB-C cable and charger; two AAA batteries are optional backup power for the time and alarm settings, and the batteries are sold separately. Other regional prices were not confirmed in this check. 3
Dimensions: The product measures 18 cm long × 6.5 cm deep × 6 cm high. IKEA's package information lists a 19 × 9 × 8 cm package, which is useful when planning a delivery or drawer. 3
Assembly watch-out: None. The clock needs setup and charging, rather than furniture assembly. IKEA recommends a separate LADDA rechargeable battery pack when backup batteries are wanted. 3
Get it: KORTLINJE on IKEA Norway.
3. ANKARUDDEN: four drawers, 164 litres, and one wall-fixing requirement
Best for: A bedroom or hallway that needs more folded-clothing storage without a wardrobe's width.
Decision: Buy if 48 cm depth fits the wall and you can anchor the chest securely. The four drawers provide 164 litres of storage, and the integrated handles keep the front visually quiet. Skip it if your rental rules or wall material make anchoring difficult. IKEA marks the product with a tipping-hazard warning and says to use screws and plugs suited to the home. 4
Price and regional status: IKEA UK lists article 806.271.49 as New at £129. IKEA Ireland lists the same article at €149, confirming a second regional price for the same oak-effect configuration. US, Japan, and Sweden prices were not confirmed in this check. 45
Dimensions: 80 W × 48 D × 107 H cm, with a 164-litre storage capacity. Each drawer is 71 cm wide inside, and the product comes in three packages. 4
Assembly watch-out: Moderate to high. The chest arrives in three packages and needs a careful build plus wall anchoring. IKEA provides an assembly guide, but the page gives no official assembly time. The total package weight listed by IKEA is about 65 kg, so plan the carrying route before delivery. 4
Get it: ANKARUDDEN on IKEA UK or IKEA Ireland.
4. SÄTERVIDE: the bedroom reset that arrives flat and leaves no floor footprint
Best for: A renter who wants a visible bedroom change without adding furniture.
Decision: Buy if your duvet is 200 × 200 cm and you want a patterned set that fits in a small wash-and-store cycle. The cover uses concealed press studs, and the fabric is a 50/50 blend of recycled cotton and lyocell. Skip it if your duvet uses another size or if you want a spare set that includes the duvet itself; the listing covers the cover and pillowcases only. 6
Price and regional status: IKEA UK lists article 306.324.12 as New at £25. The product page also lists 150 × 200 cm and 240 × 220 cm variants under separate article numbers. Prices for the US, Japan, and Nordic markets were not confirmed in this check. 6
Dimensions and material: The duvet cover is 200 × 200 cm, and the two pillowcases are 50 × 80 cm. IKEA lists 50% recycled cotton and 50% lyocell, machine washing up to 60°C, and tumble drying at normal temperature. 6
Assembly watch-out: None. Wash the set before use and check the size label on your existing duvet before ordering.
Get it: SÄTERVIDE on IKEA UK.
5. VIDEOXBÄR: a £5 colour change, provided the inner cushion is already there
Best for: A small living room that needs colour without another piece of furniture.
Decision: Buy if you already own a 50 × 50 cm inner cushion, or if adding the insert still fits your budget. The cover has a warm leaf pattern, a concealed zip, and cotton fabric with at least 50% recycled cotton. Skip it if you need a complete cushion; IKEA sells the inner separately, and the matching 50 × 50 cm INNER cushion is listed at another £5 on the page. 7
Price and regional status: IKEA UK lists article 806.314.05 as New at £5. A search lead pointed to an Irish reseller listing the same article at €6.99, but that is a secondary retail page rather than an IKEA regional product page, so it is excluded from the confirmed regional comparison. US, Japan, and Nordic IKEA prices were not confirmed in this check. 7
Dimensions and material: The cover is 50 × 50 cm and made of 100% cotton, with at least 50% recycled cotton. IKEA says to machine wash it at up to 40°C and avoid tumble drying. 7
Assembly watch-out: None. The only setup is inserting the separately purchased cushion pad.
Get it: VIDEOXBÄR on IKEA UK.
