- IKEA launched the Solvinden floor lamp
- It proves popular and sells out quickly
- Limited edition lamp can be used indoors and outdoors
IKEA is seriously renewing its efforts in the smart home space, recently introducing several new contenders to our list of the best smart lamps – and one of the most impressive models in the lighting category is now available for purchase again.
The lamp in question is the IKEA Solvinden floor lamp, quietly put on sale by the Swedish furniture giant just a few days ago. Despite the lack of fanfare around its launch, it is proving popular with buyers and sharers on social media.
The Solvinden Floor Lamp can be yours for just $49.99 (it doesn’t appear to be available in Australia yet) and is available alongside other entries in the Solvinden range, including a pendant and a table lamp.
IKEA called it a “limited edition,” so perhaps it’s no surprise that it’s selling out quickly. There are reports of stocks running out, but those stocks are being replenished and it appears to be available for purchase in the US and UK at the time of writing.
Modes and atmospheres
The main selling point of the Solvinden floor lamp is clearly its sleek, slim, arched design. The bracket and outer casing are finished in a bright red, with the light itself wrapped around the inside of the arch.
There are three lighting levels to choose from: high, medium and ambient. Plus, it’s suitable for outdoor use, with an IP44 rating – I wouldn’t recommend sticking it at the bottom of the garden, but it should be fine on balconies.
It’s not a smart lamp, in the sense that you can’t control it from your phone or set lighting schedules, or anything like that. However, it looks great and IKEA promises it will give your living spaces “depth, contrast and a warm ambiance”.
The TechRadar team was also impressed with the donut-shaped Varmblixt LED lamp that IKEA unveiled at CES 2026, but the Solvinden floor lamp might just beat it in terms of overall appeal – and if you like it, grab it while you can.
