THÅGGEN: The Made-Up IKEA Product Thread

I would also like one of these (I kind of do this already - I have a storage box that catches all the extra crap after I’ve finished cleaning up).

I would also like one of these.

I like the price of the unit in the OP - it seems more in keeping with the :eek: That’s Cheap! pricing at Ikea.

While you’re thinking, why not test your knowledge of current Ikea products (and Death Metal music) and have a quick game of Ikea or Death? :smiley:

Did it. Won 'em all.

Early tests showed an unfortunate tendency to burst into flame due to friction. Even after generous application of fire retardants, there was still the noise issue.

But I thought all Ikea products came with Allen wenches!

To my mind, the weirdest thing about IKEA names is that scattered amongst the strange looking umlauted scandinavianisms are normal sounding (if arbitrary) names like Billy, Albert, Omar, Stopp (which, quite appropriately, is anti-slip rug underlay), and Jules (a chair).

YNIGVI

Helpful device that affects the minds of all your neighbors while they sleep, inculcating a desire to create an Enlightened Nordic Socialist Society.
Runs on 240 volt current only. Will not work in the US.

It helps that chairs and desks in the Ikea system always get men’s names.

**Barnställ **

Combination stroller, car seat and play set. Pentagonal hydrant wrench required.

Or the $23 dining room set right next to the $94 fruit bowl.

This is a seriously awesome idea! Instead of hanging it out a window, you could have a ceiling-mounted hook with a pulley system to bung it up and out of sight! So sort of like throwing a net from a ship, you lower the pouch, chuck all your junk, shoes, Lego and Thomas bits and hoist it up!

Damn, you should patent this one. :cool:

DÖRK

The ultimate gaming table, for players of Dungeons & Dragons and other role-playing games. Seats six, with special trays at each seating location for dice and character sheets, as well as bottle holders for your Mountain Dew. The surface of the table is embossed with a 1" square grid, and the surface can be written on with wet-erase or dry-erase markers. Available in Gygax White.

$847.52

ALAN

This handsome cylindrical holder fits nicely on your Blaårnn or any other surface to hold all your Allen wrenches in one convenient place. Hexagonal holes accommodate most sizes, and the base doubles as a handle so you don’t completely destroy your fingers putting together your Dörk.

27¢ — Sold Out.

You can have a wench named Allen if you want. Like we said, we don’t judge.

Do they? Are there guys in Sweden called NOLMYRA or LOCKSTA or POÄNG, then?

Billy, Albert and Omar are all shelves, but by no means do all shelves have regular male names like this (recognizable to me a such, anyway).

Oh come on, that makes *far* too much sense, even with the alternate spelling!
The "Sold out" is a nice touch, though! :)

You guys still aren’t getting it - that should be $84.75! Or maybe even $8.47. (But the table sounds sweeeeeeet! And the name is perfect!)

Also a very good idea.

Thank you! I knew we had had such a thread years ago, but I just couldn’t find it. Good job on searching and finding!
