SMÅSTAD System
Safety First for Growing Children
The SMÅSTAD system is designed with children's safety and development in mind. It undergoes rigorous risk analyses and testing to ensure suitability for children. It is crucial to use the included safety fittings to secure furniture to the wall, especially for units 23.5 inches or taller, to prevent tip-over injuries. Ensure you use hardware appropriate for your home's wall materials, which may need to be purchased separately.
Secure It! Prevent tip-over injury. Furniture with included restraints must be secured to the wall according to the assembly instructions.
Storage Designed for Growing Children
SMÅSTAD is a storage system conceived from a child's perspective, aiming to make dressing and organizing easier and more enjoyable. Recognizing that children interact with their environment differently and are constantly evolving, the system includes a changing table, bench, twin loft bed with a desk, and various wardrobes and chests of drawers. Smart accessories allow for easy updates, ensuring the furniture adapts to changing needs over many years, offering a cost-effective solution.
SMÅSTAD Grows With Your Child
Children grow, but living space often remains constant. The SMÅSTAD system maximizes space utilization through versatile units that can adapt over time. For instance, a SMÅSTAD loft bed can transform into a multi-functional space with a desk and wardrobe, while the changing table can evolve into a desk as the child grows.
The system offers endless possibilities, allowing customization with different frames, fronts, handles, and accessories to suit specific needs and spaces. IKEA also provides a selection of ready-made combinations for immediate use.
The design prioritizes children's needs, incorporating features like conveniently placed hooks for easy clothing access and soft edges with rounded corners. Door hinges include built-in dampers to prevent finger pinching.
Safety and Maintenance: Children's unpredictable play habits necessitate thorough risk analyses and safety testing for all children's furniture. For units 23.5 inches or taller, wall anchoring is essential. Cleaning involves a damp cloth with mild detergent, followed by wiping dry with a clean cloth.
Good to Know: Adapting to Change
Living with children is a dynamic experience. SMÅSTAD is designed for flexibility, allowing storage solutions to evolve with a child's age and needs. For UPPFÖRA frames, an optional wheeled drawer can be added to the bottom space, serving various purposes as the child grows – from storing toys to becoming a secret box for a teenager.
Ages 0-2 Years: Calm Start with Safe Routines
A SMÅSTAD changing table and storage combination creates a safe and practical area for diaper changes and storing baby essentials. As the child develops, the area can be personalized with pictures or a baby mobile.
Ages 3-7 Years: Full Speed Ahead and a Lot Can-Do Spirit
SMÅSTAD storage can be configured with different levels. Garments not used daily can be hung in the upper sections, while lower sections with hooks or drawers provide easy access for children to select their own clothes, fostering independence.
Ages 8-14 Years: Personality Takes Its Prominent Role
This age group explores identity. The SMÅSTAD system includes options like a cork door for displaying personal style and interests. Hooks on both the inside and outside of units facilitate hanging clothes and backpacks, keeping the floor clear.
Good to Know About the Pull-Out Wardrobe
The pull-out lower section of the wardrobe offers a clear overview and access from both sides, with hooks for easy hanging and retrieval of clothes. The upper section is ideal for storing less frequently used items.
Key Features of the Pull-Out Wardrobe:**
- 1. Fixed Drawer: Located at the top, suitable for small, easily misplaced items.
- 2. Soft-Closing Hinges: Built-in dampers ensure doors close gently, preventing finger jamming.
- 3. Hooks: Positioned inside and outside for convenient hanging of clothes and backpacks.
- 4. Storage Box Base: High edges on the bottom strengthen the structure and create an additional storage space.
- 5. Rounded Corners: All doors and drawers feature softly rounded corners to prevent sharp edges.
- 6. Label Holders: HÄNGIG label holders with symbols aid in organizing drawers and wardrobes for both children and adults.
