Ikea's new fast chargers are almost too cheap to be real

Ikea is known for its affordable, unassembled furniture, but the company also offers some electronic devices, including smart lights and chargers. The retailer has just released a brand new pair of fast USB chargers at a price that other companies will have a hard time competing with. 

The Sjöss, a name that covers both the single and double port versions, starts at $7.99, which is quite reasonable for a 30W USB-C charger.

Ikea’s chargers come with some stickers that let you mark the charger as yours. This could be helpful if you have roommates or family members with the same charger. There’s a green, orange, and blue sticker in the box. While not a game-changing inclusion, it’s a nice bonus not to worry about which charger belongs to you (assuming you remember which color sticker you use).

The furniture giant also offers an affordable USB-C cable to accompany the charger. The Lillhult USB-C to USB-C cable is $7.99, so if you don’t already have enough USB cables hanging around your home, snagging one of these might not be a bad idea. There’s a Lighting cable, too, but it’s a bit more expensive at $12.99.

Both power bricks are available to order now, though as of this writing, the single-port model is showing as unavailable for delivery. (It may be in stock at your local Ikea store, though.) The dual-port option is available for delivery, saving you a trip to the local Ikea store (though, let’s be honest, a trip to Ikea is always a good time).
