Furniture giant IKEA has launched a massive sale, slashing prices on over 700 products by up to 20%. Some of the brand’s most popular ranges including BRIMNES, HEMNES and PAX are among the key items selected for a price overhaul, but you can also pick up a bargain in the lighting, dining and kitchen department.
IKEA Australia selling manager Ainslie Woodham says the price cuts are a direct response to customers’ cost of living concerns. “We know how tough Australians are doing it,” she says. “The cost of living and affordability is more important than ever as many Australian face rising costs and increased inflation.”
These products are just the latest in a long line of 2500 items that have already had their prices reviewed, and lowered. Earlier this year, the furniture retailer launched IKEA Kreativ, an app that allows you to visualise products in your home and design an entire space (to scale) at the touch of a button.
7 reasons we’re heading into IKEA this weekend

Kallax shelving unit (77x147cm)
From $99, IKEA
I’ve been looking for one of these on Facebook Marketplace for months, but every time I get close to nabbing one at a bargain price, the seller goes quiet and the item is marked ‘sold’. But with IKEA slashing the price I’m tempted to give up the chase. This shelving unit has many uses: for kids’ toy storage, as a stylish, customisable credenza or even as a bookshelf. This Kallax shelving unit was $119 but is now $99.
