      Good designWendyThe Alex is perfect for home study - two hold up desk top. Massive storage close at hand. The unit goes together quickly and looks good - good price.5
      Alex draw unitAngelaGorgeous draws, sturdy, practical and look amazing too.5
      Drawer unitReannaGreat product5
      My new sewing tableJanI purchased 2 x Alex drawer units plus a tabletop to make up a sewing table. It works well for me and has lots of storage for my sewing bits and pieces. I am in heaven with this new addition to my home5
      ALEX DRAWERAllanEasy to assemble. Great product for the money.5
      The draws that workMohammedTHe draws worked perfectly and the assembly was fast and easy. The only issue was the instructions was not in the package. I had to download it onto my phone to do it.4
      Not goodViThese drawers fall out of the metal brackets very easily and don't support much weight.1
      That’s very goodShekiba👍🏻3
      Alex DrawerAriVery useful, good amount of storage with all the drawers.5
      Sleek set of drawersRobertThe drawers fit neatly under an IKEA desk and don't take up too much room width wise. As usual just follow the assembly instructions and you won't have an issue. My only criticism is that it looks like the pine/chip board timber used on the drawer sides is not as dense as previous IKEA furniture items, therefore go easy when assembling it and avoid twisting or moving out of square during the assembly process to avoid cracking/breakage.4
      Under deskRhondaWe added wheels from ikea. It goes under our double ikea desk. All in white with shelves above.5
      Excellent productMisariLoved how the drawers are wider and the depth is great.5
      Resolved a problemAndreaRecently started working from home and needed a desk, quickly! I’m a woman in my 60’s and could assemble myself, of which I’m very proud! Looks great in my workspace and meets WHS standards!! I must admit I didn’t realise how heavy this t was until I had to move it!5
      ExcellentStephaineSuch great quality and very easy to put together5
      PerfectNicoleIt’s exactly what my daughter wanted for her makeup desk5
      Draw slides faultyPamelaThis is my second purchase of Alex, and once again the metal drawer slides have failed. They simply won't stay in place with the flimsy (short) screws provided. Defintely a design fault. The unit itself is smart and fits nicely under a desk, but Ikea could do better with the drawer slides.2
      DrawersMikiaylaaaLots of storage as I also have lots of stuff so it goes in there5
      right height for DeskKimberleyRight height for desk. It would be better if have even deeper draw compartment, by reduce 1 number shallow draw?5
      Not the same measurements shown online.Kiarna-LeaHappy with the overall drawers however they are not the same size as the measurements shown online. They are larger then listed which doesn’t see like a big issue until I was trying to put my desk together and the other attachment also from ikea was smaller then listed online so they didn’t match up and there is a gap at the back of my desk now when they were both supposed to be the exact same size. Not happy about that and it needs to be addressed and the correct measurements need to be shown online!3
      Almost perfect for my needsGeoffI bought two of these... ✅Accurately produced ✅Quality product ✅Easy to construct ❌Let down by stupid, inadequate, stick-on feet. (Actually fell off before I tipped the unit upright ) ❓Information missing in advert is the internal dimensions of the drawers4

      Material

      What is particleboard?

      Particleboard is made from recycled wood and sawmill leftovers – so wood pieces with the wrong shade, woodchips and sawdust become a resource instead of possibly being discarded. We use boards for things like bookcases, bed frames, sofas and kitchen frames. To protect from wear and moisture, we apply varnish, veneer or foil that adds to the furniture's look.
