IKEA has dropped a NEW product and it’s definitely something to talk about!

While IKEA has long been known for its stylish, affordable, ready-to-assemble furniture, you might be surprised by their latest release – a one-size-fits-all wearable pillow called the FÄLTMAL.

It’s a quilt, it’s a pillow…it’s “a quillow” and it’s already available to order online in select locations.

Priced at $34.99, the FÄLTMAL is like the outdoorsy cousin to the once-popular Snuggie. It’s constructed from 100% nylon with a cushy polyester filling. So it’s basically like wearing a sleeping bag, which might make it ideal for camping or enjoying a fire on a chilly night.

While it looks totally hideous, a little functionality can go a long way! It even has a mesh kangaroo pocket so you have a place to keep your phone, some snacks, and the TV remote, handy at all times!

Plus, the material is designed to repel liquids so you don’t have to worry if you spill your favorite beverage on it while enjoying a lazy afternoon just lounging in your FÄLTMAL.

Just when you thought 2021 couldn’t get any more interesting, IKEA proves us all wrong with the latest innovation in wearable home decor!

If this pillow isn’t doing it for you, you might prefer a good old-fashioned throw blanket!

How’s it a pillow if it doesn’t go under the head? So it’s either a pillow or a wearable blanket.

It looks like it can be folded up into a pillow when not wearing it.

I was thinking it would have some kind of hood that was a pillow or something. I’m thinking this get up would be good for camping

Maybe it’s a social distancing device. Pretty sure one look at you wearing this thing and everyone will definitely keep their distance! 😂

Why the orange square zipper line? Are they trying to make it look ugly on purpose?

Back in the 80’s we made pillow blankets, it starts off as a pillow and pulls out to be a blanket, so we left it in the car for the kids, proof everything onlinees around again.

I have a homemade quillow! Not a wearable one though. Pillow converts to quilt. I keep it in my car for long trips.

These would be wonderful for homeless people. Unfortunately, they don’t have any in our IKEA.

They didn’t have it where I live so had a friend buy it elsewhere and ship it to me

Reply
oliver April 21, 2021 at 9:55 pm MST

It is lightweight & feels very soft. It’s perfect for my office as a pillow or when I get cold 😁😁😁
