Questions

What tools do I need for the POÄNG armchair?

The hex key comes in the box. The manual also shows a flat screwdriver, to turn the barrel nuts in the braces until they face their bolts.

Which screws go where?

The eight screws 119046 hold the slats; the six screws 120925 hold the seat. Of the long bolts, the two shorter ones (146654) go through the armrests and the four longer ones (122606) into the braces. The manual shows each with a close-up and warns against the other.

Which way round do the slats go?

Each slat is bowed: its middle goes towards the back, so the backrest gives a little under your back. The slat with the strip of hooks goes second from the top; the cushion’s flap holds on to it.

How much weight does the POÄNG hold?

IKEA says it has been tested for people weighing up to 110 kg.

Should I tighten the bolts again later?

Yes: the manual shows the six bolts being tightened again with the hex key, the one through each armrest and the two in each side frame’s braces.

Safety

Check the bolts now and then and tighten them again: a loose armrest or brace makes the chair wobble. IKEA says the chair has been tested for people weighing up to 110 kg.

About this guide

The steps, the part numbers, the counts and the order come from IKEA's assembly manual AA-2615392-2 (2025). The outer size, 68 × 82 × 100 cm, is IKEA's published size. The curves of the bent parts, the slats, the braces and the hole positions are read off the drawings and IKEA’s photos, so they are close, not measured. The 3D runs faster than real hands do.

IKEA says the chair has been tested for people weighing up to 110 kg.
