This behind the couch storage and charge station was made from leftover IKEA parts after we moved to another place. The core components are obviously IKEA, what I did add on top were some wheels and some plain white boards which serve as covers eventually.
IKEA items used:
Other materials and tools:
- Wheels
- Wooden boards for cover
- Socket strip
- Cable passage
How to make a behind the couch storage and charge station
1. Cut 3 equally long cover boards and 1 for the front panel.
2. Use a jigsaw to make a proper slot in order to place the cable passage.
3. Attach the wheels to the bottom side of the BESTÅs.
4. Bolt all components together.
5. Assemble the 3 top covers by using IKEA door hinges and push openers
6. Add the handle to the front panel
7. Plug in the socket strip
8. Enjoy

#1 Feed all your devices at one charging station
Even though Stefan’s household is just two-person-and-one-cat big, their kitchen desk was often messed up with USB-cables and chargers for phones, tablets and camera batteries. So he decided to do his first IKEA hack — a KVISSLE + OSTBIT charging station — to make a bit less messy. See the tutorial.
#2 Hide a wireless charging pad in your nightstand (or any other table)
Dylan had this idea to add wireless charging to his nightstand. This only cost him the price of the Nokia wireless charging pad and took approximately 1.5-2 hrs to complete. Get the details.
#3 Equip the LACK side table as a charging station
Tanja’s extended family has grown quite a bit over the years to include Cousin iPad, Auntie iPhone, Grannie Kindle, and that crazy Uncle Android. It’s a full house, and they’re hanging out on the kitchen counter, in the home office, and especially in the living room. Wall plugs are always at their limit, jammed up with our smart “relatives”. We want more space for ourselves yet don’t want to be without our beloved family of devices. See how it’s done.
