Ditch The Boring Cabinet: IKEA Has A Much More Stylish Way To Store Extra Blankets

Extra throw blankets are always nice to have, no argument there. But if said extra throw blankets don't have an ideal place to go when they aren't in use, whether that means they take up too much space in a standard credenza or they end up all but forgotten in a packed linen closet, they might create unwanted clutter. Enter IKEA's light-pink glass-door cabinet. Instead of hiding your blankets in a boring cabinet or letting them get lost in the back of a closet, you can display them neatly in this storage unit.

As for the build, IKEA's light-pink glass-door cabinet is made from steel, and it has tempered glass doors as well as tempered glass shelves. Size-wise, the cabinet measures about 28 inches wide, 14 inches deep, and 63 inches tall.

The product's customer feedback is mostly positive, too. Several reviewers praised its color, design, and overall look, noting that it is a fun statement piece. That said, not all of its reviews are glowing. Some buyers mentioned chipped paint, uneven surfaces, assembly frustrations, dissatisfaction with the quality, and misaligned doors. So, make sure you check out some other stylish ways to store blankets before making the purchase.

Tips for storing blankets in IKEA's glass-door cabinet

The IKEA PS 2026 glass-door cabinet is a stylish and functional blanket storage option. However, it still needs to be used thoughtfully. For instance, each glass shelf has a maximum load of 22 pounds. So, this cabinet is best for lighter throws, folded quilts, and decorative blankets; maybe find another spot for any stacks of heavy comforters. Also, while it may be tempting to fill every shelf completely, overpacking can make the cabinet look cluttered. Not exactly ideal when you are trying to store blankets in plain sight. The best approach is to treat the cabinet like both storage and display.

You could, for example, place bulkier blankets on the lower shelves, whereas the lighter throws or more delicate, textured pieces could go on the top. Also, try leaving a little space between blanket stacks instead of jamming them next to each other. This will help the cabinet look styled instead of stuffed. In addition, make sure every blanket is clean and fully dry before storing it, as even a small amount of trapped moisture can leave blankets smelling musty or create mildew problems when they sit folded for a long time.

It is also important to note here that when storing your blankets, it's important to keep the cabinet clean, too. IKEA recommends wiping the glass with a damp cloth and using only water or window cleaner. As for the frame, IKEA suggests wiping it with a damp cloth. Lastly, note that IKEA specifically mentions that this cabinet is a tipping hazard, so you'll want to anchor it properly before you use it to keep blankets organized.
