Malin and her colleagues dug deep into coffee and tea cultures to find out what tools people feel they can’t live without. They talked to specialists and investigated living, eating and drinking habits. “We wanted to develop items that make a difference, so we’ve focused on a few, but carefully selected products,” she states. The team cooperated with IKEA Test Lab in Älmhult, Sweden. It’s an IKEA version of a James Bond lab where prototypes are inspected and evaluated. “A couple of the things we checked were that the thermoses can keep fluids really warm for a long time. And that the glass mugs and glass pots are durable and comfortable, even though they look and feel light and airy,” says Malin.

InsulatingOliviaKeeps fresh boiled water longer than insulated bottles with inside metal walls. It has glass inside wall, which insulates better. The pouring from the simple lid can be a bit messy.
StylishPeterBought with Fruktskal and Vardagen for display near bbq. Looks great

Terrible itemVirginiaThis flask is terrible doesn't keep water hot or warm.it got cold in an hour. Wish I can return it.its only good for tap water
Vacuum flaskAnonymousGreat value for money, nice colour. it works well so far. except if the handle move little further down it would perfect. however, if your hand weak and not very flexible and is not an ideal.
Lasted less than a yearMadelineA few months in and the inner material produced flakes that ended up in our beverages/mugs. Probably highly toxic and cheaply made, ie. you get what you pay for.
2nd One Michelle2nd time buying one. Keeps water hot even when left overnight. I recommend this product.
Stylish Thermal CarafeAnonymous reviewerDoes what it’s supposed to. Kept hot water hot n looks good at the same time too. Only downside is the cap which is hard to grip sometimes. Can be avoided by not screwing too tight. Overall not bad!

Elegant thermosJudeLooks great, good capacity but doesn't pour well. Thermos has to be upended to empty the last half of the contents making for a messy pour.

Story
A better everyday one cup at a time
Have you had coffee or tea today? Statistically, you most likely have. In fact, these hot brews are the most consumed beverages in the world next after water. They’re a part of life that can give a silver lining to any moment. That’s why we decided to update our selection of products to make that perfect cup – from the tea infuser and the kettle to the milk frother.
Malin Ljungström, who was involved in developing the range, shares her insights. “To many, the smell of coffee and tea means well-being and a homey feeling. Since we want to improve people’s everyday, we’re offering products that make it possible for more to experience more feelgood moments at home.”
Developing things that make a difference
For all tastes and different wallets
No matter how you enjoy your cup, you’ll find the things that put an extra flavour to your drink in the range. Another good thing is that there’s something for all wallets. “It’s one of our contributions to a better life at home. A way to improve people’s everyday one cup at a time,” concludes Malin.
