Today, Designer Monika Mulder has four children of her own. "In our home, it has been used as a toy stove, so that sometimes when the room is to be quickly cleaned, everything from the floor is hidden under the pulled down hood. Later in the evening, LÖMSK often looks like a glowing ball when one of the children sits inside it with a tablet." For Monika, the fact that LÖMSK is used in unexpected ways is positive. "In a pretend world, children can comfortably prepare for adult life ─ with nothing predetermined. It’s the imagination of children that decides what LÖMSK should be.”

Round and round you go! Your child sets the pace – spinning slowly relaxes; spinning quickly develops the balance. When your child pulls down the hood, it gets a cosy hideaway.

Fantastic service from the online staffAnonymous reviewerHats off to the staff for sorting this item for one of our client. Really great item for children. Easy to assemble and also very safe and secure!
Swivel chair Anonymous reviewerBrought this for my autistic granddaughter.
Bit disappointed that the hood has a gap and does not fit snuggly to chair.
Definitely orange , not red and could do with a comfy cushion.
Would be amazing if there was an alternative hood that was blackout fabric and with lights to make a sensory hideaway ...over to you IKEA geniuses....
Fantastic!Anonymous reviewerAmazing chair, bought for my 6 year old who loves enclosed spaces, he loves it in there, it also fits my older son in too. Very easy to put together (done in just a few minutes) and super sturdy. It spins too so extra sensory, which is a bonus! Love it, looks really nice and easy to keep clean. Would highly recommend

Fantastic quality. Sturdy and safe. Anonymous reviewerI've gotten two. First one was white and went to my child's nursery for her . The second is orange, an older model and is lovely colour. Prefer the bright colours on these

Fantastic chair Anonymous reviewerMy son absolutely loves this the only downfall is handprints on the white hood your forever cleaning it, can you buy replacement ones?
Ps lomskAnonymous reviewerMy grandsons absolutely love it it’s just fantastic the littlest one who is 3 just lies in and pulls the hood over
Great little chairAnonymous reviewerEasy to assemble and very sturdy.
It would be lovely if there was a circular pillow/ cushion to go inside as the bottom is hard plastic - great for keeping clean.
Very easy, all good, delivery price quite highAnonymous reviewerQuite concise
Thanks
The base won’t connect to seat - unsafe. Not able to use Anonymous reviewerThe part that connects the base to seat will not click into place properly therefore as soon as there is any weight in the chair or spins it comes off therefore it’s not usable at all. This part seems to be unavailable to order as a spare as well. Really really disappointed
Base won’t connect to seatAnonymous reviewerRed connecter seems to short to click into place with the seat.
Won’t click into place so very dangerous Anonymous reviewerI bought this today for my son with ASD. Pretty simple to put together however part 10096522 (step 3) will not click into place correctly no matter how many times I’ve tried. This leaves the chair completely unusable.
Perfect Anonymous reviewerMy 7 year old and 3 year old absolutely love the chair. It’s fun and makes their room look out of this world.
My child loves it!Anonymous reviewerGreat and fun for kids, easy to put together and sturdy
UnsafeAnonymous reviewerPurphased two of these in the store yesterday for my 2 & 3 year old. Those eggs came out the stand whilst they were in it & one of them landed on one of them and it smacked their head. Absolutely disgusting that these aren’t very secure. I will be returning them
Childs Chair for child with AutisimAnonymous reviewerExcellent chair for our 6 year old autistic granddaughter. She really loves it, and can get the peace and tranquillity
she needs by pulling down the cover whilst sitting in the chair, and which she can also rotate using her feet.

Story
A cosy place with a twist
You probably know how childhood memories can stick and become almost magical snapshots in your mind. If you work at IKEA, these memories can inspire you to create new products. Like LÖMSK swivel chair. "As a child I was constantly doing handstands and I loved rocking and spinning. My father's armchair was enticing, so as an adult I had the idea that there should be swivel armchairs adapted for children," says our designer Monika Mulder. She wanted the chair to stimulate imagination, too. So she gave it a hood that can be pulled down to create a secret hiding place.
Since 2003, children throughout the world have spun, hidden and created their own cosy space in LÖMSK swivel armchair. Child psychologist Barbie Clarke, who has researched children and their development, has seen it act like a magnet to children. "Children love things that change into something else. It stimulates the imagination and gives a feeling of having magical powers. And spinning in the armchair is not just a fun game, it also contributes to important physical development,” explains Barbie. “When children climb, hang upside down, run, balance and spin, their sensory systems develop ─ particularly their balance.”
An armchair for more imagination and play
Material
What is polyester?
Polyester is a durable, quick-drying and insulating material that is optimal to use for textiles and as filling in pillows, quilts and furniture. The material is made from crude oil – a limited resource. Since IKEA doesn’t want to contribute to more virgin oil being used, we are now gradually switching to recycled and traceable polyester from sources like PET bottles. What’s nice is that polyester can be recycled over and over, without changing or losing its great qualities.
