Is IKEA nursery furniture good?

[STARRYSKY]

I have got the cheapy change table ($70) and love it, havent had a problem, easy to put together etc, change pad on top is good and they sell the towelling covers for it too.

We went to IKEA today! Didn't get any baby stuff though. Prepare to be exhausted!! I forgot how tiring it is...

Mummynaomi ... Are you able to describe what the Ikea night-light looks like ... just i'm after one & looking to maybe head to Ikea in Melb within the month

Hey Smiles

Its called a SPOKA - if you go to the IKEA australian site and search for SPOKA it should come up to view the 3 types - it looks like a little ghosts head (not scary, very cute) and comes in a flatter version too, we have a blue one and a green one - I think they are about $25AU. You just press the top of it and it goes on/off and once charged you can put it where ever as doesn't need to be plugged in, and it stays on the whole night, but is dimmer by morning as the charge runs out, or you can leave it plugged in....... It gives of a soft light so doesn't disturb bubs but lets you see - I think the blue one gives better light personally

HTH

Thanks soooo much Naomi

My 3year old DD has never had a night light as i couldn't find one that wasn't electric ... I love the idea that this Ikea one isn't electric ... Ever since DD has been in her own bed in her room she wakes up every night between 2 - 4pm crying so i'm hoping a little night light might help her when she wakes during the night & won't be so dark for her

I hope it helps your DD get a good nights sleep

Naomi ... my DP bought one today at Ikea as he works in Richmond ... there was only the green or blue one so i got the blue nightlight on your kind recommendation, as like you i would rather the blue if it appears to be brighter as in lasting the distance during the night

Will let you know how DD goes during the night with it, ... put it this way it will get use one way or another, LOL

You are so right, not scary but is like a cute little ghost !!

Thanks a million Naomi for letting US all here on BB know about it, as for me otherwise i would have never have known & would have been still searching for a non-electric nightlight
