Product placement

Ikea: ACTS - The video shows the assembly and modification of Ikea furniture (bookshelves and drawer units) to create custom built-ins and a desk. Removing it would change what happens in the video. Ikea: APPEARS - The Ikea logo is not visible, but the brand name is mentioned in on-screen text and the caption, indicating the source of the furniture being modified. Removing it would not change what happens in the video, but would remove context.
