Style on a shoestring: 10 iconic Ikea buys that look far more expensive than they really are

Some people have some sort of of a snobbish attitude when it comes to Ikea – yes, really. The self-assembly, the low prices, the mass production – it is all too easy to think sure it can't be all that great, really. But that's where you're wrong – so wrong. With Ikea, the selection is so massive, so extensive, the trick is to be able to separate the wheat from the chaff. And trust me, there are some pieces you simply do not want to overlook. These 10 are true Ikea heroes. The design, combined with the price, makes them near impossible to beat, and will add a serious injection of Scandi style into your home. Oh, and if you needed more convincing, interior stylists consistently pick all of these as their top Ikea picks too: 1. Docksta Dining Table It is no wonder that this dining table has become such a iconic buy. It suits pretty much every space and decor, and will look as good in 20 years as it does today, we think.

Stockholm Coffee Table Part of the latest Stockholm collection, we can't stop thinking this coffee table is a future classic, for sure. And while it is technically a coffee table, we can't help thinking it would look pretty good as a bench too, no? Stockholm coffee table, €95, Ikea 5. Hemnes 8-Drawer Dresser The Hemnes dresser is a classic for a reason. Not only is it seriously affordable, it also provides ample storage and has a great scale. We love how the drawer knobs easily can be changed to personalize the look to suit almost any interior style. Hemnes 8-drawer dresser, €225, Ikea 6.
