A very nice shelf unitArtThe Kallax 4x2 is a very nice shelf unit. It was easy to assemble. One thing that might improve this shelf unit is better connection between the sides, top and bottom. Maybe overlaps joints would improve the strength as well as limit the side to side movement. it needs a little bit more rigidity. Also, it would be nice if there were already holes to accept the wheels or if the base was slightly thicker to accept 3rd party casters that use ¾ inch wood screws. Would also love to see this shelf in more vibrant colors like navy, blue, green, yellow, etc.
Vinyl storageNacolaThis shelf unit is the perfect size to hold my vinyl. It holds so many of my records it looks like it was custom made for my collection.
Easy and worksChristophersimple to assemble and looks great!
Great for kids toysPattiLove this for placing cubes to store kids toys!
Perfect for Pantry SubstituteAshleyMy apartment doesn't have a pantry, so I knew just what I needed! I already had a short Kallax for a TV stand, and I knew that the tall Kallax would be perfect. It subs in as food storage now, and will be a great regular shelf or TV stand later!
Looking good!JiwonSturdy,and Stylish ! 29lbs/shelf weight limit is more than enough. Shipping was good also.
Kallax shelves JocelynGreat shelving system! The best!
Owned for 13 years and 2 moves.AdamI don't think they are poor quality at all if they are the same as they were 13 years ago. They aren't crazy heavy so it made moving 2x super easy. I think you can hold like 50lbs per square or something like that? I have all my household power tools, bits, hammers, screwdrivers and nails in 1 box that's made to fit in 1 of the squares. I put the heaviest things at the bottom. The only thing wrong with them is the scratches from sliding them around, but you can find a color to pain match and touch it up easily. Easy to clean with everyday cleaning products. I put these led lights in the top of empty squares with some gorilla tape and it gives it a cool fish tank vibe.
Good quality Anonymous reviewerWill buyagain
Easy assembly but poor quality AlisaThis was extremely easy to put together. With that being said, the quality is very poor for IKEA. I have purchased several pieces of furniture from IKEA that have all been very heavy and durable and these are EXTREMELY light and the color is worn off in multiple spots of it. I’m not near an IKEA store and had this item delivered so I can’t just pack it up and return it or I probably would. Pretty disappointed in this one.
Easy to assembleShanaI used a drill instead of the Allen wrench provided. I assembled the shelf in roughly 30 minutes. It is ideal for the organization I desired. I used the IKEA storage bins for inserts.
Idea storage for any room Kelli-AnnIdeal for every room !!
Bakery storageArlynI used this to store all my bakery supplies. Great way for me to organize them and have them ready for me
Versatile storage for small spacesNickKallax is a configurable storage system that can be configured with draws, door and other inserts. I love this system and have used many items from the range. Simple to build and very versatile.
Love itSherelLove how sturdy it’s made unlike them bookshelves it’s also true to size
Worst Ikea Product I Have Ever PurchasedMaxwellUnbelievably terrible quality. Panels are as light and flimsy as styrofoam. All connections are ill-fitting wooden dowels that crumble with any force at all. On top of that, you have to drill FOUR of your own holes just to attach the desk. I would buy literally ANY desk/shelf combination over this one. Don't make the same mistake I did! I can't believe how cheap and lazy Ikea has gotten.

Versatile unitLisaAnd great price!
Just what I needed for my Vinyl album storageRobertGreat price, great quality
Significant Deterioration of Ikea Quality SuI built quite a few Ikea cube shelving units several years ago to line the walls of our record collection room. In the past, materials were meant to last, even with the heavy weight of records. The fiberboard interiors of all pieces was dense, the dowels strong and not subject to snapping, and the laminate thick and securely applied.
I expected the same with this purchase. Instead, I found that the particle board was little better than cardboard, the laminate thin, subject to lifting and marring, and the dowels soft and flimsy. What should have been a quick assembly was complicated by the necessity of digging out dowels that failed. The laminate distorted on a couple of pieces during routine assembly of the parts. After the unit was completed, I found that the thin laminate with its poor surface is subject to marking and scratching during something as routine as inserting or removing LP albums.
Ikea, you should be able to do better than this.

Quality and feel
At first glance, KALLAX is a simple shelving unit, but it’s based on a love for details. The unit has smooth surfaces and rounded edges that make it appealing to the eye and enjoyable to touch. We’ve also worked hard to make the shelves align perfectly so you avoid eye-sore gaps, giving the unit a uniform look. Simply put, all of KALLAX is well-thought-out down to the smallest detail and exudes a solid feel of quality – which results in a nicer and more timeless impression.
