flatpacks
Boxed furniture kits
Flatpacks are furniture or equipment sold unassembled in flat boxes, designed for the buyer to put together at home.
The format reduces shipping costs and storage space, though assembly can test patience: We spent the whole afternoon building flatpacks from IKEA.
As a verb, to flatpack is to package something this way.
Also spelled as two words or hyphenated.
