Affordable Smart Home Ecosystems

The Ikea smart home range expands with 21 new devices designed around the open Matter standard, allowing seamless connection across different brands and platforms. The collection includes lighting systems, air quality and water sensors, remote controls, and smart plugs. At the center of the ecosystem is the updated Dirigera hub, which now functions as both a Matter controller and a Thread border router, ensuring smooth integration with existing and future Ikea products.

Affordability is a core focus, with prices starting at just a few pounds in select markets. The lineup prioritizes simplicity and reliability, offering users a practical way to automate and monitor their homes without high costs or complex setup. By emphasizing accessibility and everyday usefulness, Ikea continues its mission to make connected living intuitive, cohesive, and within reach for a wide range of households.
