Features and benefits

In Ikea furniture, everything is perfect: the range, materials, practicality, price. Solid corner cabinets here are the exception. This piece of furniture is represented in wardrobe systems and in several more separate corner structures. Corner cabinets differ from classic straight lines in the following:

  • Use the most useless corner space. Ikea cabinets dispel the myth that a corner wardrobe is inconvenient, not spacious and too bulky;
  • It can fit more than a regular cabinet due to the extra space in the corner;
  • It can be installed in a niche in a room that is difficult to use with benefit;
  • No kitchen can do without an angled closed drawer, and in Ikea they are presented for every taste and with different “fillings”;
  • The corner cabinets of the brand are distinguished by the Scandinavian style - simple, concise and at the same time recognizable, suitable for any modern interior.

Corner wardrobes firmly established in our home. They occupy space in the bedroom, living room, nursery, in the kitchen and in the hallway. Corner models are different from the usual larger capacity due to the angle - the additional space, which is important to correctly use.

If we talk about Ikea, then in her collection there are two full-size corner wardrobe, corner rack and a couple of kitchen cabinets, as well as an infinite number of shelves and shelves from which you can build something similar to a corner cabinet.

Of the minuses worth noting that in Ikea its standards. If the height of the cabinet, then only 236 cm (for the wardrobe system) or 202 cm - for a separate cabinet. To get a model in the ceiling will not work, it remains only to take up free space with boxes and baskets. But you can choose the color and texture of the facade of the door.

For the bedroom

Corner wardrobe in the bedroom - practical, comfortable and spacious.For these purposes, Ikea offers the following options:

  • "Todalen" - wardrobe with one door and roomy space inside. There are a number of removable shelves on one side and a bar for hangers on the other. Its dimensions are standard - 90x90x200 (width x depth x height). Available in three colors: black and brown, white and taupe. The advantage of Todalalen's wardrobe is the fact that the shelves in it can be adjusted. They can be purchased more or put at such a distance at which it is necessary.
  • Pax - wardrobe system in which there are corner modules (with or without a door). The parameters of the Pax corner wardrobe are larger than the previous one - 111x111x236 cm, the design is also different. Pax consists of two perpendicular cabinets with a common wall inside. It divides the storage space into 2 parts. One compartment of the corner cabinet has two bars for clothes and one shelf at the top, the second one is a row of rather narrow shelves.

For the children's bedroom, it is preferable to purchase a full wardrobe. If you want to take a corner, then you can arrange in it hinged shelves or shelving.

Still, the massive wardrobe in the children's bedroom - the decision is not appropriate. And in adolescence - quite.

For kitchen

Ikea offers two options for corner kitchen furniture: wall cabinets and floor cabinets from the series "Method". They differ in size - width and height.

The floor cabinet can be with shelves, with a sliding or rotating section and a frame height of 60 cm and 80 cm. In fact, the height of the floor cabinet differs by 8-10 cm.

The hinged box is notable for its filling: inside there can be a standard shelf or a rotating element for storing dishes. Of course, the parameters of the box also differ. Height can be standard - 60 cm, 100 cm or 37 cm. Width: 67.5 cm, 87.5 cm.

For living room

Corner Book Shelf "Billy" Sold since 1979 and today is particularly popular. The reason lies in its capacity and open shelves. Its parameters are 215 / 135x237x28 cm (height, length on both sides x depth). Colors: oak, brown ash and black-brown.

The rack "Billy" is made of chipboard and is lined with veneer, which gives it an external high cost and practicality in use.

Furniture in the living room should be not only functional, but also stylish.If the bedroom is appropriate massive wardrobe to the ceiling, in the living room - is unlikely. The exception is high floor shelving or hinged boxes assembled in a corner construction.

It is important to provide convenient opening of each of them, which is not always possible to do with prefabricated models.

For bathroom

Corner rack "Rogrund" is ideal for free space under the sink or any part of this room. It is distinguished by versatility and three shelves for small items. It is possible to install such a rack not only in the bathroom, but also in the nursery, living room, kitchen, balcony - anywhere.

"Rogrund" is made of bamboo and has a natural brown shade, high practicality and minimalist design.

How to choose?

To make the choice worthy, it is necessary to determine the free space of the room in which the corner cabinet from Ikea will be located. If it is a bedroom, the choice arises between the Pax system and the separate Todalen cabinet. They differ in size - the first is larger and higher. For a small bedroom, choose a small wardrobe: in the corner it will become almost unnoticeable.

Plus Ikea is that you can choose the color and material of the facade of the cabinet door. You can't do without a mirror in a small space, so choose a door with a mirror insert in the floor. They will visually expand the square of the room, and you don’t have to buy a separate mirror.

If we talk about the color of the cabinet body, then Ikea is not famous for a large variety - black-brown, brown and white. But you can "play" with the color of the same doors and focus on the facade - choose a shade brighter, glossy or matte texture. For a small room, the choice is clear - a white closet that does not overload the space. For a spacious bedroom will suit and rich dark.

Wardrobe system "Pax" can stretch along one or two walls. In this case, the angular module will act as a connecting link and connect its two parts.

Place in the interior

Corner wardrobes create home comfort and look especially good in the bedroom, where mostly the wardrobe is located:

  • The wardrobe Pax system with a corner cabinet is practical to use. In its corner part there are two bars for clothes, in a straight line - a row of shelves. This system can have doors in the classic wardrobe or not at all, turning into a modern open closet.It is appropriate to arrange it both in the bedroom and in a separate dressing room.

In general, Pax cabinets are one of the most popular storage solutions. The corner module is suitable for placement in the corridor and is easily complemented by classic rectangular cabinets. They are sold separately.

  • In the living room there is no place for a corner cupboard in the classic sense. But the rack in the arrangement of this room fits perfectly. Corner open shelves with the back wall will become part of the home library and skillfully place on themselves hundreds of books. Natural veneer will make the image of the room more elegant. The corner combination can be created from several Ikea racks, but the one-piece design looks very dignified.

Reviews

The Ikea corner wardrobe system is one of those available. Its plus is that it takes an angle and thus holds more things. You don’t have to worry about how to install two cabinets and rationally use the corner - Ikea has already done everything for you.

Reviews of this system are extremely positive: price-quality ratio, capacity, exterior design. Of the minuses, furniture users note sizes that are very limited and do not always fit perfectly into the room parameters.For example, if you plan to install such a dressing room in a niche, then there is a risk to leave gaps in it.

Buyers note the capacity of the Swedish corner cabinets, which look small in appearance, but inside are very spacious.

Reviews of kitchen corner modules are mostly good. They are roomy, comfortable, especially standard and offer several options for filling - from simple shelves to sliding mechanisms.
