Status Check.
Status: Sofa and Slipcover are available from IKEA, but for some reason the slipcovers are always out of stock.
Slipcover: IKEA Kivik slipcovers available from Comfort Works
Measurements: IKEA Kivik sofa dimensions and measurements.
Cool Factor: Large, spacious, contemporary and modern looking. It has large armrests that serve as additional seating and the armrests can be detached when joining the Kivik with any other Kiviks to create a Kivik sectional.
Ugh Factor: Unnaturally low armrests which just doesn’t feel quite right. It’s also a little pricier than expected.

Our Review.
We were so excited to try the KIVIK for ourselves that we took the day to visit the IKEA store just see how the KIVIK felt in person. To read our full reviews and first impressions on the sofa, click here.
In short, the Kivik is actually quite a looker and somewhat comfortable for an IKEA sofa – but it’s just a little bit pricey.
Although this model is still available at IKEA stores, Comfort Works offers slipcovers in alternative fabric and leather options for this model. Check out our loose fit long skirt Kivik slipcovers as well for the 2 seater & 3 seater models.

Do you have leg options for the Kivik sofa? I find it too short and would like to raise it with MCM style leg. Thanks
Hi Alissa,
That’s a good question – thanks for bringing this up!
Technically, the IKEA Kivik legs are NOT compatible with M8 bolts, which makes them incompatible with most replacement sofa legs.
However, there is a way you may change your Kivik’s sofa legs by removing your original Kivik legs and installing a mounting plate, or a furniture bracket into the base.
Here are some super simple steps on how to do this; https://www.classyclutter.net/how-to-add-legs-to-ikea-couches/
If you decide to do this, you will then be able to use our replacement IKEA sofa legs. Just be sure to avoid changing the sofa legs underneath sofa-beds, as this makes the entire sofa bed become unlevelled and unstable.
Let us know how it goes! ;)
Hi: I’d like to add arms to a Kivik chase (that I inherited). It does NOT have arms already. I’d also like covers for the arms in the newish Grey Turquoise color. Any ideas.
Hi Paul, we’d suggest reaching out to the IKEA’s support team – they should be able to help from there. Once that’s done, please drop us an email over at info@comfort-works.com if you’d like those covers made for your Kivik :)
Hey, I’d like to make a half-sized Kivik for kids’ play station room. Does anybody have the the make blueprints?
