IKEA is the gift that keeps on giving in more ways than one. From the multifunctional pieces to the accessible pricing, it's a Dengarden reader favorite and we're right with you. The latest reason to love IKEA (and subsequently, upgrading your home) a little more is the Midsummer sale which features prices slashed up to 50% off. The Midsummer sale is on like popcorn from now until Tuesday, July 9 . You'll also be able to score an extra 10% on top of the sales price if you're part of IKEA Family or Business Network (both of which are free to join). The sale includes a variety of excellent must-haves including bedding , furniture , and so much more. There's A TON to sift through but sit back and relax because I've already created a cheat sheet for you below with the best goods to grab in the sale.
The SOLVINDEN LED light is battery-operated so you don't have to worry about dealing with any tangling cables. It's also super lightweight so you can move it around the house whenever you see fit with no issue.

Sanela room darkening curtains to enhance the room visual and help maintain a comfortable environment
Bring the sunshine into your space with a splash of color that'll suit your decor but cut down on the sunlight and some unwanted heat whenever you need to with a quick pull of the fabric across the curtain rods. The SANELA room darkening curtains made of thick velvet so they'll truly block out the sunlight but will also help retain heat in the winter while helping cool the space in the summer.
Customer review: "Very nice weight and quality for the price. These provide excellent blackout coverage along our back sliding glass doors, we placed them on the Vidga Track and they look great. I really wish they would offer a 108 inch length instead of just jumping straight to 120." — Juanisha

A space-saving desk that IKEA literally built to "outlast years of coffee and hard work"
The top requirements for a good desk are that it be durable (because who wants to buy a new desk every two years?) and that it hosts enough space to fit the essentials like a laptop, notebook, lamp, and such. The BEKANT desk is designed to do just that. It's made of particle board covered by oak veneer, tinted clear acrylic lacquer, and ABS plastic that's meant to stay tough and strong for all of your WFH needs. At $200 off, it's basically a steal.
Promising review: "Easy to assemble, solid.. plenty of room on this wider & deeper table for a double screen setup & room to spare, love it." — Geoffrey

A rolling cart perfect for organizing and transporting your daily go-to essentials
This stunning Dajlien cart boasts a chic yet practical design meant to help you keep yoga mats, bands, weights, and more fitness accessories all in one place. Though intended for workout items, reviewers also use it for supply organization . Thanks to its wheels, you can move it around the house as needed and safely tuck everything away when you wrap up.
Promising review: "This cart is possibly the best Ikea purchase I have ever made! I purchased this to organize my gift wrap and wrapping accessories. I placed my gift wrapping roll through the handle to the lowest shelf (standing up.) The top shelf holds ribbon and tape, middle shelf has small bags and tissue paper and lower shelf has next size up bags. I have pegboard hooks through the holes on the sides holding the rest of the bags (I will go back to Ikea to look at their pegboard hooks.) I have seen a gift wrap organizer at a competitor store that runs about $200, no thank you! I plan to go back to Ikea to purchase another one. It was easy to put together and is easy to roll around. It’s small enough to store in a closet." — Lynn
Promising review (for art supplies): " I use this cart to store my paints and other art supplies in one place. I can wheel it out when I paint and put it away when I’m done." — Stephen
Price: $54.99 (was $74.99)
An acacia bench with a backrest for comfy outdoor seating
Spending time on your patio or deck outdoors is a must this summer but you can't do it without quality seating. The NAMMARO bench boasts a cushion on the seat and slight back support. It's made of pre-treated acacia wood designed to withstand the great outdoors.
IKEA took the guesswork out of setting up a gallery wall with this pre-designed KNOPPANG set of framed posters . Just take them out of the package and put them up following the order on the packaging or in any way you see fit.
Price: $24 (was $40)

Having an office desk is super practical and offers yet another space to let your personality show via a stylish (albeit still comfy) chair. It's the most important desk accessory! This Eldberget swivel chair is an excellent contender as it offers lower back support, an adjustable height and a pressure-sensitive brake mechanism that keeps the chair in place when you stand up for safety.

Outdoor string lights to bring a festive element to your backyard
Your backyard is basically an extra room in your house if you take advantage of it like you deserve to. With great furniture and other decor, it can be yet another enjoyable place you can retreat to other than your living room and bedroom. One super low-cost way to enhance the ambiance back there is also string lighting! These gorgeous mini-lantern SOLVINDEN LED string lights are available in three styles.
This indoor-outdoor Flodbjork wicker basket plant pot provides a good home for your green friends without compromising on your home decor aesthetic. It's made of plastic rattan so it can be confidently used outdoors.
Customer review: "I love this basket planter! If you’re using this outdoors, like I am, I would recommend removing the plastic liner as there are no drainage holes and the plastic is very thin/flimsy. I removed the liner and instead double-lined the basket with natural burlap - this will somewhat protect the basket while also protecting my plants from coming in direct contact with the plastic basket (it’s not real rattan). If you use it this way, this basket will work well for herbs and dry-loving plants that need amble drainage, like the lavender and thyme that I’m growing. I can’t speak to longevity as I’ve just received this today, but it seems very solid." — Courtney
Price: $20 (was $30)
A deep toy storage chest perfect for kids who live for playtime that doubles as a bench
If the kiddos keep a neverending pile of toys that makes tracking down one of them like hunting for a needle in a haystack, then consider the SMASTAD toy chest and bench . It's got a cushioned top to double as seating for a small person and a deep pull-out drawer you can toss toys in. The drawer also fits organizing cubes so you can bring an extra order to a kids' toy room or bedroom. It's on sale in the grey and green color options but has six color options total.
Price: $90 (was $100)
Outdoor bar cart
This bar cart is made of acacia wood that's treated so it can withstand the elements in the great outdoors. However, it's far too charming for me to be surprised if someone grabs it to keep as an indoor bar cart as well.
If you're leaning toward adding more color to your bedroom or guest room, then consider furnishing it with an upholstered VADHEIM bed frame that boasts a sage hue — a color that stands out without overwhelming the space. The upholstery also looks so rich! It's available in sizes ranging from full to queen.
Price: $399+ (was $699)
A bright rocking chair that works indoors and outdoors
This TUMHOLMEN Rocking chair offers gorgeous pastel colors that basically liven up any space you could put it in — even if that's outside, thanks to the weather-proof textile. It offers a soothing seat thanks to its rocking ability and deep design. Full disclosure, several reviewers noted that this chair is something that two people should put together instead of one because of how difficult the last two pieces are to push in. If you're usually solo-dolo, then I recommend that you skip out.
Customer review: "Hmm, I'm not sure what the other purchaser is [talking] about. I bought and assembled this without any issue, by myself, and I love it. It's on my balcony and I use it every day. It's lightweight yet sturdy and has a small, comfy rocking action. Very impressed for a rocker under one hundred dollars." — Kristy
