Reviews

Needs a lockable versionAdamRecommended for the Alex Drawer Unit on castors which comes with a single castor to support the large bottom drawer. However, when the drawers are placed on hard floors the whole unit moves forward whenever you open the drawers - needs to come as lockable castor, or at least 2 of the 4 so you can lock the back 2 castors to stop the unit from moving when users open the drawers. The castors themselves are fine when you want it to move, just not for the full range of expected uses for the furniture.2
Great value for moneyDavidAdding the castors to the Alex drawer unit allows you to easily move it around - particularly useful when used in combination with a smaller desk.5
Very good item Anonymous reviewer👍5
Not greatAllyNeeds brakes on it1
SturdySylviaEasy to fit a d well made. 5
The castors were recommended bySherryThe castors were recommended by IKEA staff for the TV stand that we bought from IKEA. The leg of the TV stand split when we tried to attach the castor. Now neither of my purchases are fit for purpose. Waste of my hard earned money1
DDeborahMissing a cam bolt and a screw so had to make dash to Bunnings but easy enough to assemble5
Hard to installZhenchaoI tried to use electronic screwdriver to install it at the bottom of an Ikea drawer. Unfortunately, the wheel is big and the metal base is small, which makes the driver head to hard to reach screw. Not recommend1

Suitable but no lockAaronDoes the job. The wheels do not have a locking mechanism.3

Great wheelsFionaWorked perfectly on my tall Alex and now I can zip the Alex around from room to room, and makes cleaning behind the cupboard so much easier.5
Smooth rolling action, strongSoniaEven though the Alex drawer units are very heavy, they roll very smoothly across our carpeted floor on these castors. The castors are exactly the right height to lift the drawer unit's top to the same level as the top of the desk, extending the desktop work area.5
Useful in so many waysHiediUsed on furniture, made pot stands and chairs. Makes life easier moving things4
