The This Ables project was conceived to allow people with special needs to enjoy the quality of life provided by IKEA products. As part of IKEA’s vision to “create a better everyday life for as many people as possible”
Noble initiative. Truthfully accessibility of modern furniture isn't something I've ever thought about because everything is designed for able-bodied people like me.

Why Ikea does not do this already is beyond belief - much need for our not so able members of the human race? - Well done IKEA ThisAbles !!
I've worked for some instances to create mobile apps and websites that were accessible and useful, but software is another field than physical products.
I must say: absolutely awesome IKEA 👌🏻🙌🏻. Much respect for this cool service.
3d printing will keep the costs low and help people with a disability to use their products and live their lives at home at a more comfortable way.
IKEA ThisAbles is awesome !
