Step-by-step assembly

  1. Step 1: The frame comes in one piece. — IKEA BÄSINGEN assembly

    Step 1

    The frame comes in one piece.

    You only need to clip the seat on.

  2. Step 2: Turn the seat so its 2 pegs are at the front. — IKEA BÄSINGEN assembly

    Step 2 · manual step 1

    Turn the seat so its 2 pegs are at the front.

    The pegs must line up with the 2 holes in the frame rail.

  3. Step 3: Pegs over the holes — not the other way round. — IKEA BÄSINGEN assembly

    Step 3 · manual step 1

    Pegs over the holes — not the other way round.

    Wrong way round, the seat will not fit (manual step 1).

  4. Step 4: Lower the seat onto the frame. — IKEA BÄSINGEN assembly

    Step 4 · manual step 1

    Lower the seat onto the frame.

    The rolled edges rest on the side tubes of the frame.

  5. Step 5: Press down on the seat near both ends ①. — IKEA BÄSINGEN assembly

    Step 5 · manual step 2

    Press down on the seat near both ends ①.

    Use both hands.

  6. Step 6: Then press the rolled edges down ② until they click. — IKEA BÄSINGEN assembly

    Step 6 · manual step 2

    Then press the rolled edges down ② until they click.

    They snap over the frame tube on both sides.

  7. Step 7: Each rolled edge now grips the frame tube. — IKEA BÄSINGEN assembly

    Step 7 · manual step 2

    Each rolled edge now grips the frame tube.

    Check that both ends have clicked into place.

Tips & safety

  • Make sure the seat is clipped on. Both rolled edges must be pressed fully down over the frame (manual step 2).
  • Seat the right way round. The pegs under the seat go into the holes in the frame rail (manual step 1).
  • Unsure, or something missing? Contact your IKEA store (manual p. 2).
