You put it between the wall socket, and for example the coffee machine or the iron, which then becomes a part of your smart home. “The whole idea with DIRIGERA has been to create a simple system to both install and use. We have more than 75 years of experience in creating a better everyday life at home, and now we have made it smarter by adding technology.”

Product details
DIRIGERA hub is the heart of a smart home as it enables you to connect and control your smart products in the IKEA Home smart app.
Picture yourself being able to wake up, dim the lights, raise your blinds, and listen to some music - all without having to get out of bed (or having to rewire your home).
You can easily keep an eye on your home even when you're away using the IKEA Home smart app, for example to check if the coffee machine is switched off and to turn lights on or off.
All our smart products work independently. Adding them to the hub opens up new ways to control and customise your home – with extra functions and features when you combine two or more products.
Your smart home can be controlled in various ways – with the IKEA Home smart app, remote controls, shortcut button, voice or motion. You control individual products, groups, rooms or all at once.
Found the perfect combination of cosy lighting and music? Save it as a 'Scene' in the app! By creating your own scenes, the right mood for any occasion is just a tap away.
Trigger scenes with schedules or manually with a shortcut button or the app, for example when you want to turn off all lights and other smart products with a single press when leaving home in the morning.
DIRIGERA hub is a Matter bridge, this means that the smart products connected to the DIRIGERA hub are compatible with any smart home platforms that use the Matter standard.
We continuously update the IKEA Home smart app with new and improved features for an even more fun and convenient way to use your smart home.

worth every centsEffendyit works well with old Ikea remotes and lamps, and easy to integrate with Alexa, one important thing to know, that all of lamps and remotes need to be re-paired again with Dirigera Hub.
simpleIansimple to setup and connect... wish most things were this easy
Easy to use hubAriUpon connection, the hub auto updated and is easy to use in conjunction with IKEA smart products.
Could get it to workJohnCan't get it to connect to phone
💔💔 WISH THEY SOLD THE SMALL TRADFRI E1743 STILL! 💔💔Anonymous reviewerDespite being enormous, they are useful being able to change colours. But it would be so much nicer to have smaller magnetic light switches! The alternatives (Rodret & Somrig) just are NOT suitable as can only be used for scenes! 💔😭 And they are bigger than the small square TRADFRI remotes! 😭💔
EXCELLENT IKEA & ZIGBEE WIFI HUB! Anonymous reviewerHas no issues connecting generic Zigbee devices, as long as they are from available categories that match the verticals Ikea sell. TIP: Position 50+ CM away from your router for best coverage ages reception up your devices.
Decent construction. Average documentation. Excellent replacement / return support. 365 day returns!
No issues adding old old switches and devices no longer sold Ikea.
Excellent Zigbee Bluetooth Gateway / Hub! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Anonymous reviewer⭐ Works with "most" Zigbee-compatible devices. ⭐ Plenty of support and resources online. ⭐ Gateway is 110% AWESOME and stable. ⭐ Frequent updates and rock-solid reliability. ⭐
OverhypedAndrePurchased this as a replacement/upgrade to my older Tradfri hub.
Must say the transition wasn’t seamless, basically reinstalling the whole system again.
Connectivity to the wifi was unstable. Having to reconnect to the hub multiple times in order to control remotely when using smartphone. I’ve bridged it to my iPhone Home app but many of the Automations don’t work as the hub connection to the wifi is so unstable.
Doesn’t matter whether it’s 2.4g or 5g.
Can’t be a distance issue as the hub and wifi router are <1 ft from each other.
Works as expectedJasonThe initial Dirigera was DOA, so my first attempt at installation was... unsatisfactory. The replacement worked exactly as advertised and restored confidence in the product line. It's been working as expected for a couple of weeks (as have the Tradfri) without incident. I've unnecessarily rebooted it twice during that time. It restarted and continued to work without requiring me to do anything.
Stable and reliable hub replacement for the IKEA Home smart device ecosystemMikeI've had a Dirigera for over 18 months, and it has been a much welcomed upgrade from the original Tradfri hub which was troublesome to say the least. I have over 40 devices now, and confident in expanding my system with the new range of sensors (Badring, etc.) knowing the existing network will "just work" if I add new device.
I'm also trialing the beta Matter bridge support via Apple Home and has so far has been very responsive and flawless in operation.
Some reviewers seem to get stuck in the setup phase. I’d recommend check you have the right app version (sounds obvious, but there are two), and the Dirigera is plugged into your wifi router with the supplied Ethernet cable.
Looking forward to future enhancements such as Thread support and new device offerings. The IKEA Home smart team certainly has come a long way in the last few years to be able to offer very competitive and reliable home automation platform with value that is difficult to find with other vendors.
Don’t waste your time or money it’s GarbageAnonymous reviewerI’ve had two of these hubs and both of them didn't work. I waisted hours of my time trying to set this thing up and no joy. It doesn’t look like I’m alone either, there are many people having the same problem. Not good enough, come on IKEA fix the problem.
HOME SMARTRubyA++
UnobtrusiveAnonymous reviewerEasy setup and unobtrusive. Works as advertised.
Doesn't work and no one knows how to fix itAnonymous reviewerNo matter what I try the Ikea Home Smart app will not locate my Dirigera Hub and says "We didn't find any hubs" during set up. So I haven't been able to use it at all, despite exchanging the first one I purchased on the assumption it was faulty. I have been unable to get proper support anywhere and so it remains completely useless. Have tried absolutely everything and still no luck.
Easy to install and useJenniferGreat smart solution. It is easy to install and connect the smart devices. Adding other household members to the account is very simple. It easily integrates with Google home so I have control of all devices in one place. Very happy with the Dirigera and Tradfri system
Pricey but should hopefully pay off..MattFrom a hardware sense it’s a really nice design with a lot of good (future) capabilities. The new app just seems very basic with lack of useful automation such being able to do anything with VINDSTYRKA data which feeds into the DIRIGERA hub. Functionality is just lacking so far..
Although it’s an improvement from the old TRADFRI gateway, I wouldn’t currently recommend this hub at its price point especially as it’s still yet to receive Matter support even though promised by IKEA over a year ago upon release.
much better app than the old oneJulia/Uzyworks well, easy to use. app is great. sometimes there is a slight delay for the switches when they are further from the hub.
Excellent hubAnonymous reviewerVery simple to use and stable connectivity, much more reliable than my Apple HomeKit devices in fact.
UnreliableJarradBasically treat this as a beta product, the power outage handling is very poor with over half of my light bulbs unpairing after every single outage. I might have to spend more money and put the gateway on battery backup just to save the hour or so having to manually repair half the lights in my house every time there is an outage.
Pure GarbageJasonWho knew trying to light up your IKEA lights from your phone could be so difficult. Unable to install. Keeps disconnecting. On a 200+mbps connection. So slow. Absolute worst IKEA product ever.

Story
Connect and create some magic
You have surely asked yourself, a bit stressed and on your way from home, “did I really turn off the iron?” Or wished that the lights were on when you get home late? With DIRIGERA, our hub for smart products, you can easily connect and control everything from irons and lamps to air purifiers and speakers.
“But the real magic happens when you combine the different products to what we call a Scene. Then you get fantastic functions,” says Rebecca Töreman, who has worked with smart products at IKEA for several years. Her mornings now start softly with the help of a routine she has created herself in the app. “Just before I wake up, the blinds go up, my bed lights are slowly lit, and the speakers turn on my playlist with soft music. The air purifier has given me the best possible air during the night and goes from night mode to auto mode. I can’t imagine a better start of the day.”
For a smarter everyday life
Continues to develop
When you buy a piece of furniture or any other product from IKEA, you expect it to be fully developed. But we can reveal that DIRIGERA actually becomes better and better with time – without costing you anything extra. “We continue to update the app and develop new products and functions that you connect to your smart home – so you can have a little more magic in everyday life.”.
Function solution
The heart of a smart home
With DIRIGERA, our hub for smart products, you can easily connect and control everything from lamps and blinds to speakers and air purifiers directly from an app on your phone. It’s smart and smooth, but the real magic happens when you combine different products to a preset Scene. Then you can create your own routines that frame that perfect dinner party, help you unwind in the evening or wake you up with a pleasant light and soft music.
