Hey IKEA fans. I found today that the Duktig doll bed, which is just the right size for an American Girl doll, has disappeared from the IKEA website. I'm so bummed, as we did 2 summer camps and a Saturday workshop based around this bed in my studio. The girls got to build their beds, paint them and stencil them and add their names. So much fun. I've planned another 1 day workshop around this bed and now it is no where on the website.
Has anyone seen these at an IKEA lately? I'm going to be at the Indy IKEA in about a week and I can look then. Anyone have any inside scoop, like if its going to be replaced with something else?

I had not heard but that's such a bummer, I've bought many of those beds over the years...and yes they fit the AG dolls perfectly. I bet the workshop was so fun! I'll check the AG fan boards and see if people are talking about it. |

I checked the fanboard for AG and there was no mention of the bed at all recently so maybe it's just temporarily out. Good luck, that would be such a shame if they discontinued it!

I was going to use them for cat beds.

Darn! I drove by IKEA today and could have stopped. I even had a return to make it worth my while!

How much are they at IKEA? Because there are some on Amazon, but they're from resellers and I'm sure they're probably marked up...

I'm pretty sure I just saw what you are talking about at Ikea earlier this week. I didn't look closely as we were dorm shopping, but I'm pretty sure anyway. Probably not very helpful, but there you go.

I would check prior to going. It was not open about a month ago when I was in that area and the website says Fall 2017. |

Have just purchased one of these beds in the last couple of weeks.
Still on the shelves here - but we are so far away they have probably not noticed!! (Australia)

I just read the brand new IKEA catalog yesterday and there was a photo of one in it in one of the room design pages. That would be a big oversight if they are discontinuing it, so maybe it is just temporarily unavailable.

I found it on the website, and my IKEA (Canton, MI) has 94 in stock.
ETA: It even has a "new lower price" of $14.99 (instead of $19.99).

OMG!! The bed it back! It was gone all day yesterday, I swear it was. I checked it and other people checked it. And you guys are right, the Indy IKEA won't open until after Labor Day. Gonna have to pay shipping.
Thanks for letting me know its back!

Gonna have to pay shipping. Thanks for letting me know its back! I checked yesterday when you first posted and it wasn't on the website then. Since I live just 2 blocks from an Ikea, I was going to pop in today and see if they had them. So glad that they are back on the website! Your class sounds like a great one, really good idea. |
