The collection consists of more than 20 clever home furnishing solutions for producing and performing music in the home setup – as well as solutions for listening to music and creating a relaxed atmosphere. The collection includes a record player, LED work, wall and floor lamps, a clock; laptop, tablet, speaker, and record stands; a desk, two options of shelving units, an armchair, four options of bags, including an accessory, a record and a laptop bag, rug, and sleepers in two sizes, a throw and a cushion cover.

Better late than never I guess!

Looks interesting, but sad to see that 45s are seemingly an afterthought, as always in terms of mainstream views on vinyl. Admittedly this shot in the article is from the existing Kallax range, but I didn't spot anything in the graphics of the forthcoming OBEGRÄNSAD designs that caters for them:

Avoid at all costs !!! Not a "political" statement as such. Like anti-China manufactured cheap tech junk sold by major Co. even if it is all that too.

No more seriously it did not pass-on unoticed and has been subject of well behaved mockery on non pedant dedicated phono forums evidently.

Why ? Cause with one look one can see that everything's wrong with it. Then digging further in the tech specs (for the few given) it's laughable.

A 2nd hand eighties revised turntable will cost less or about and perform much better. Life span expentancy of this Ikea turntable ? Very few years.
