I shared tons of my favorite IKEA products that require little to no assembly, but one of our favorites here at Hip2Save is this IKEA Marius stool! I’m sharing all of the reasons your home needs one (or two, or three, or four!) and why we think it’s so great!


This is the stool we’re obsessing over:

Here’s why Collin loves this stool:

“I’m obsessed with these stools! I mean, hello – $4.99!!! That is a crazy good deal especially since they’re so durable. They’re so perfect for small spaces because you can use them in SOOO many different ways. Our king size bed is in a small bedroom, so I needed a tiny nightstand. This stool works awesome!

I also love that they’re stackable. In our tiny guest house, sometimes we need additional seating around the dining table. The fact that we have multiple stools that can easily be stacked (and don’t take up a lot of space!) and then un-stacked for additional seating is awesome.

They also look really great as a plant stand or a side table in our living room.

And did I mention they are only $4.99?! 🙌”


Here’s what others had to say about their IKEA Marius stool:

“I love these stools! I currently use them as plant stands, but when I have parties I move the plants to the floor and use them for extra seating. I also have a few extras for side tables which are perfect for putting snack plates or drinks on. Plus, they’re stackable and so inexpensive! I plan to get more after finishing a move next month!” – Jessica ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


“I LOVE these little stools! They are sturdy, simple, easy to store, and the price…OMG – that just makes these stools the best party essential ever! I love that they’re white, too, because they go with any type of party theme I decide to have. Excellent buy all around!” – Bella ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


“I purchased these stools quite a few years ago, and they have been the perfect addition to my apartment! I have a bad back and since my apartment shower is so small, this stool has been perfect for me to use. I’ve more than got my money’s worth out of all the ones I own.” – Barbara ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
