Remember me
As much as I enjoy spending time outside, I've never been a camping enthusiast. In fact, I tried camping in my backyard once (if that even counts), and it only took me an hour in that tent before I snuck back inside to my bedroom. So, when I saw that IKEA had released SOLUPPGÅNG, an outdoor collection brimming with camping essentials, I didn't think anything would be worthy of my attention. But I have very quickly been proven wrong.
Sure, the products from IKEA's SOLUPPGÅNG range are intended for outdoor recreation activities, but they're definitely not limited to such. The LED Lantern, for instance, though made for illuminating a campsite, is an outdoor lighting idea that I'm convinced belongs on every patio this summer. Just look at its industrial chic design aesthetic – it's a stylish choice for patio decor and it serves the practical purpose of lighting up your outdoor space.
At less than $25, this lantern is practically a steal. It can hang anywhere you need it to – from a tree branch in your backyard, a hook against your exterior walls, or even from your pergola. Plus, it's small enough to act as an outdoor table lamp, bringing ample light to any corner without taking up too much space.

In my opinion, there are few portable lamp designs that are as convenient as this IKEA lantern. Since it's made for outdoor activities, you can trust that it's sturdy and well-built. Its caged exterior adds an extra layer of durability that keeps it safe from any accidents. Not only that, but its handle makes it particularly convenient to move from place to place or hang up to create a makeshift pendant.
As for its light output, this LED lantern emits a warm, radiant glow. It's the perfect outdoor dining table feature – illuminating evening dinners with effortless elegance. And if you plan on enjoying any late night walks this summer, this lantern is the best light source to carry with you. Forget using your phone's flashlight, carrying this LED lantern will make your evening stroll feel like a 'main character moment'.
Like I mentioned before, this lantern comes from IKEA's SOLUPPGÅNG series, which is a range of products designed specifically for outdoor activities like camping. But if you're not one to trek out into the woods for an overnight stay, the SOLUPPGÅNG series is still useful – for park picnics, backyard lounging, or even beach days. Lucky for us, the rest of products are just as stylish as the LED lantern, and since they're made for outdoor activities, you can trust that their durability is top notch, too.
