Careful of the drawers. Anonymous reviewerThe drawers are very difficult to line hope and square. Not the quality we have grown to expect from Ikea. 3

Easy to install, work great!KristenNo issues installing, very clear instructions. The soft close works nicely. Not difficult to get the drawer onto them but it is a bit fiddly. Easy to get the drawers back off. I agree with other reviewers that it would be nicer if they could pull out all the way so that the back of the drawer comes out further. I hope this is changed in the future.4
Bring back old version!AnonymousI needed to add a drawer to an older BESTA unit. The previous version of soft-close drawer runner had full-travel. This new, cheaper version does not fully open, and not as smooth-running. (Also not that new runners are not compatible with old drawers, and vice-versa.) I use drawers to store CDs and DVDs; without full travel, I cannot easily access the ones at the back of the drawer. If I was buy a full unit today, this would be a show-stopper for me. I used to think that if I invested in a modular IKEA system, I could get more of the same parts later. I can no longer count on this. IKEA, this is not your BESTA work. My rating of 2 stars is for basic function, but definitely not happy with this cheapened new version.2

drawer runnersAnonymousGreat drawer runners - love they way they close softly4
Change in design resulted in loss of qualityDawnThe soft-closing drawer runners used to allow the Besta drawers to be pulled out to the full depth of the drawer, allowing optimal use of the drawer. The new runners limit the opening and do not work as smoothly or as neatly as did the earlier version.2

Material

What is steel?

Steel has unique characteristics when it is stretched and shaped since it remains strong. It provides strength to everything from skyscrapers and cars to bed frames and outdoor furniture. The steel industry is moving in the direction of more energy-efficient production and stronger steel qualities. It doesn’t lose any of its properties when recycled and today steel is one of the most recycled materials in the world.
