Ikea is best known for its affordable basics, easy-to-assemble designs, and the occasional viral hit. But every so often, the Swedish giant releases a collection that feels like it belongs in a completely different category — the kind of furniture that could easily pass for something twice the price sold by other brands.

The IKEA RADMANSO three drawer dresser shown against a white wall with a circular mirror above it and an black lamp and plant on top — The RÅDMANSÖ series consists of three different dressers, a wardrobe, and a nightstand. Honestly, it’s a little surprising that Ikea isn’t currently offering a bed frame to match.

The new RÅDMANSÖ series is precisely that: a five-piece bedroom set that’s pared-back, quietly elegant, and arguably one of the most aesthetically considered lines Ikea has introduced in recent memory.

That’s From Ikea?

The IKEA RADMANSO wardrobe shown placed in the corner of a bedroom next to a floor to cieling window with the curtains pulled to the side. The dresser is shown holding books along with some other interior design items — After assembly, these pieces could easily be mistaken for items from mid-tier furniture brands like West Elm or Crate and Barrel.

At first glance, the new RÅDMANSÖ collection from Ikea doesn’t read like typical flat-pack fare. And it wouldn’t look out of place alongside pieces from mid-tier furniture brands like West Elm or Crate and Barrel.

Anchored by a rich brown walnut effect veneer, the line leans heavily into minimalism with warmth — a notable shift away from the stark, utilitarian looks IKEA is better known for.

The mid-century modern-inspired lineup includes a 5-drawer chest, a 6-drawer wide dresser, a 3-drawer chest, a nightstand, and a matching wardrobe. Each piece carries the same squared silhouette, flared leg design, and push-to-open drawers — a welcome departure from IKEA’s often grip-heavy builds.

You’d think its elevated look would easily qualify it for inclusion in Ikea’s recently revived Stockholm collection, which its founder stated was intended to be the “best of Ikea” when it first launched back in 1985, but it’s strangely not.

The IKEA RADMANSO six drawer dresser shown at an angle with the top two drawers on the right hand side pulled slightly open. — It’s a little surprising that this collection isn’t part of Ikea’s esteemed Stockholm collection, which was once touted as “the best of Ikea” by the company’s founder back in 1985.

That said, it holds its own stylistically. The line’s walnut veneer is thoughtfully applied and consistent across the pieces, though as with most veneers, it may not carry the same luster or depth of real wood — particularly under close inspection or harsh lighting.

Still, the overall execution suggests an effort to bring more refined aesthetics to IKEA’s lower-to-mid price points. RÅDMANSÖ looks more like something you might actually keep — and want to keep — for the long term.

Pricing and Availability

True to IKEA’s ethos, the RÅDMANSÖ line remains accessible. The nightstand is the most affordable piece in the collection at $100, while the largest — the wardrobe — tops out at $300. The 5-drawer chest and 6-drawer dresser are priced at $250 and $300, respectively, with the 3-drawer chest landing in the middle at $199.

All items are currently listed on IKEA’s U.S. website, but availability may vary depending on your location. Some pieces may not be immediately eligible for delivery, and in-store stock will likely fluctuate as rollout continues.
