Several years back, IKEA released its first smart home hub and devices, and while they were OK, they didn’t really distinguish themselves from the best smart plugs, bulbs, and other doodads on the market.
The company is trying again, but this time with a suite of smart sensors and lights that are all Matter-compatible, so that they’ll work with every major smart home platform. All of the products were announced in late December 2025, and many are now available to purchase — and they’re all pretty cheap. With the exception of some Bluetooth speakers and lamps, all of the products cost less than $30.
