How the Xbox Series X and Series S fit into the most popular Ikea furniture

We tried life-size console mockups in everything from a Hemnes to a Kallax to a Fjallbo.

There's a better-than-decent chance that your next console is going to live in a piece of Ikea furniture. The assemble-it-yourself Swedish brand is known for inexpensive media centers and TV stands, which range from generic white boxes to industrial-style metal shelves.

Having gotten my hands on life-size plastic mockups of the upcoming Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, I slipped both into my bag and headed down to the nearest Ikea (literally walking distance) to see how the new consoles worked with some of the most popular living room furniture in the store.

I have the Besta and since there's like a million Besta configurations, this isn't helpful for me.

That said, no physical way the Series X nor the PS5 will fit in my Besta Burs

Like, are you talking about on top? Did you mean to quote me? PS5 as measured is too deep - 10.5" to 11" unless I cut out some of the back (doable but I don't want to do it) whereas Series X will not fit in the middle sections at all at 6" wide horizontally.

Edit: PS5 would actually fit, as its about the same depth of the PS4. My apologies!
