FAQ:
Q: What is a kotatsu?
A: According to wikipedia, “A kotatsu, used almost exclusively in Japan, is a low, wooden table frame covered by a futon, or heavy blanket, upon which a table top sits. Underneath is a heat source, often built into the table itself.”
Q: How tall are the legs on traditional kotatsu chairs?
A: The legs on traditional kotatsu are 36cm (about 14.5″) tall. When I was in Japan, I found this to be way too short for me to sit comfortably which is why the Ikea LACK works so well.
Q: Where can I buy a kotatsu heater?
A: Do not use any heating element but a kotatsu heater otherwise you run the risk of starting a fire! The second hardest piece of equipment to obtain. American outlets put out 120 V but Japanese appliances run on 100 V. Try searching Google, Ebay, and Amazon.
