The IKEA Item That Makes Bedside Storage Easy And Accessible

Even if you have a bedside table in your sleeping quarters, chances are that you're still in search of random items night after night. Whether it's your cell phone, charger, remote control, or the latest book you're reading, there's no such thing as too much bedside storage. That's where a delightfully simple and ingenious bedroom organization product from IKEA comes into play, allowing you to have everything you want and need at your arm's length.

The affordable STICKAT bed pocket ($9.99) is designed to hook on the topside of a bed rail, making its three pockets easy to access. Customers appreciate the simplicity and functionality of the STICKAT, mentioning that it offers great value for money and a pleasant appearance. One buyer writes, "I love this to help with keeping the nightstand clutter free. I keep my phone, remotes and everything else that seems to gather. Stays in place too. I love it." Made from polyester, it's also designed to be easy to maintain and clean, making it a practical purchase and great bang for your buck.

On the IKEA website, the STICKAT is showcased to be used on IKEA's children's beds, but you can also make use of it in your own bedroom. If the hook doesn't fit on the bed frame, you can just as easily hook it onto the headboard. And while most of the reviews on the STICKAT bed pocket are positive in nature, the negative ones lament the compatibility matter. "The bed pocket is not compatible with the HEMNES Daybed. The ledge around the daybed is too wide and the bed pocket keeps popping off," one buyer writes.

Though it would be nice if it fit well on every bed model, the STICKAT still offers a clever storage hack for kids' rooms, which can become easily cluttered. If your child is young, you can fill the organizer with their favorite storybooks, as well as a small reading light to help ward off imaginary monsters. You can also consider personalizing the pocket with some glow-in-the-dark fabric paint and a stencil. If your children have a bunk bed, these bed pockets can save the top-bunk sleeper a lot of trouble, too, allowing them to keep their necessary items at arm's reach. Finally, students living in dorms may be on the lookout for small bedroom hacks from IKEA. These pockets could come in handy, as they are a fraction of the price of an additional bedside table. Whatever your situation, the STICKAT offers great storage potential for a small price tag.
