Rumours about the IKEA TIMMERFLOTTE temperature and humidity sensor began around this time last year, but it wasn’t until November that it officially launched, alongside 21 other Matter-compatible smart home gadgets. That new connectivity standard, paired with IKEA’s famously low prices, meant these devices flew off the shelves almost instantly. They’ve been tricky to get hold of ever since, but I finally managed to track one down to test for you.
I’ll be honest – I didn’t really know what to expect. IKEA smart home gadgets are so affordable that you can’t help but wonder where the compromises are. However, as someone who tests Matter-compatible devices pretty much every day, I was excited to see what this tiny sensor could do.
