IKEA Is Quietly Discontinuing This Mini Storage Find, and It’s Only $5 and So Versatile

I adore a good storage find, which is why I’m always keeping my eyes peeled in thrift stores and holding on to beautiful tins and boxes from cookies, candles, and more. That’s why it’s somewhat breaking my heart to see that IKEA is quietly discontinuing its HARVMATA box in light beige. Here’s what I love most about it and why you should snap one up before they leave the store shelves.

Listed as “last chance to buy” on the IKEA website, the HARVMATTA box in light beige is a durable steel box with a cork lid. It measures 4¾ x 9½ x 2¼ inches and is ideal to place on a counter, by a desk, or inside a drawer. The cork lid creates the perfect possibility for stacking boxes neatly on top of each other without causing scratches. It’s on sale for $4.99.

Whether you’re seeking to stash away stationery, find a home for your cotton swabs, or keep your change somewhere safe, the options are endless with this handy little storage gem. You could even collect a few and use a label maker to store small craft supplies. Or maybe your hair ties could find a new home in one of these boxes and finally stop getting lost.

Customers have praised the HARVMATTA box as being “very nice for the price” as well as “spacious on the inside,” but noted how there isn’t a latch to more securely keep the lid on. Regardless, many buyers expressed regret, remarking on how they “should’ve bought more.”

If you miss out on this storage solution, the PLOGFÅRA Storage Box with Lid from IKEA is a good dupe, minus the cork. These boxes boast similar storage space, stackability, and rounded corners.
