I picked up a Matt in Ikea today which I thought would fit in the altea boot nicely

Well what a shock, it fitted Perfectly, and I mean to the MilliMeter

I recon it was secretly designed for the altea, you couldnt cut a carpet to fit that perfect:D :D

It was a black matt with a little yellow stripe on it. £3

Yes £3 buy one you will be impressed

Hi pantsdavies,

let us germans participate in your discovery, please ... hope our IKEA product name and brand will be the same as yours in the UK.

A picture & the item name would be appreciated.

greets ... Klaus

EDIT:
Found on german IKEA catalog pages only this one matching the description (black with yellow stripe)

=> http://www.ikea.com/webapp/wcs/stor...-3&categoryId=16056&chosenPartNumber=30108495

but then ... it's 200x80 cm ... and that's not even the size of an XL-boot. :confused:

Hey ... pretty neat ... :clap:

but then again ... the link I posted is referencing the same brandname "HALSTED" ... but it's different size over here, and the yellow stripe is a lot thinner.

whatever ... seems to be a good buy over in the UK ... :cry:

cheers ... Klaus ... and thanks for the picture.

EDIT:
Once again ... found sth. after posting ... they don't only have a carpet called HALSTED (the link above) but do have a same called mat as well
=> http://www.ikea.com/webapp/wcs/stor...d=5&langId=-3&catalogId=10103&productId=79464

Looks a little different, as it has more than one stripe ... and is a little smaller than the one pantsdavies bought ... so no mat for Germany ... ;(

I have looked on the uk Ikea website but my Matt is not listed anywhere

Thank you for the post, got one today and it does indeed fit very well, perfect for protecting the boot floor and it has a rubber backing so it does not slip.

A few quid well spent.


Out of interest have anymore people bought one of these matts????:)

Quite a big / bulky item even when rolled up so might cost a bit to post? Got one yesterday in Manchester where they are in stock. Happy to get one and post to you but as I say could be expensive and more than the mat costs.


I want one, so could someone get me one and send it to me if I pay?
