Their $30 "JYSSEN" charger-for-a-hole product (found on page 25 of the PDF) looks excellent.

I've built a Nokia Qi charger into my desk (now used with my Galaxy S5) but the oblong form-factor of the coil and charger circuit did not lend itself to easy installation.

The round product looks perfect for retrofitting existing work desks, plus the price (as usual with Ikea) is quite competitive.

Subjectively I've never found IKEA prices to be particularly compelling once you look past the cheap and flimsy chipboard stuff they put near the doors to wow visitors.

Durability has a price no matter who sells it.

For example a solid-wood bedframe is $1000

I do not know if you have noticed but, some pages later, you can see that the tool to drill these holes will also be available. Very convenient, indeed.
