sturdy and easy to assembleJennyThese are very sturdy and easy to assemble. They fit any décor, use them upright or horizontal, the choice is yours.
Easy to assemble and looks good in my home officeIhorTitle
Great storage unitGoldieI was a little disappointed that the surface wasn't the smooth shiny gloss that was in the 4x4 unit that I had purchased a couple years ago. Instead it felt like any other cheap wooden unit from any other store. It was purchased online and unseen in person. I may not have purchased it if I had known the surface wasn't the same as they were for the same room. One is nice and shiny, the new one is just nice.
Perfect storage unit for me SandraHaving it installed by gorabbit made the purchase even better
Perfect pieceTanyaThis shelving unit is perfect! It was assembled easily with two people. The finished product looks fantastic and provides great storage. I definitely recommend this piece of furniture.
Perfect!ZanaEasy to put together and organized our space. Ticks all the boxes-Exactly
I manged to put it together and Im 77 years oldHeatherWe have to downsize and I have limited space for all my spinning, felting Weaving and sewing supplies. this was perfect because once I fill it, I will have to get rid of the rest,
Excellent ValueDanAttractive, relatively easy to assemble and functional unit that is a good value.
Great Shelf for my record collection DeborahWe have over 800 vinyl records and have been searching for a place to display them with easy access to locate one when we want to play it. Kallax is the perfect place !
We were also able to add cd’s, nik naks and hard covered books all in one unit.
Of course, there is still room for more vinyl albums as well !
not greatJeremiahneeded to use a drill to get the some of the screws to screw down, and needed to sand down some of the wood pins to get the pieces not to have gaps between them. I get that it is IKEA quality and price, but I still should be able to build it the way IKEA intended without resorting to power tools.

love this productTerrythe cubes fit 12x12 scrapbooks so it works well for me. My only concern is that there is no backing so sometimes smaller items fall behind the shelves
Kallax is kingPaulSome excess glue on edges was disappointing and needed wood dust wiped off before assembly
Great for storing board gamesMattI have a ton of games - board games, miniatures games, and role playing games. These shelves are amazing for storing them all. Plus you can customize the shelves with various inserts. Great stuff! I will pour one out for the trees who died to bring me these shelves.
KallaxChrisFor the most part we are pleased with our purchase. We had delivered to a collection centre. Noticed foot prints on one of the boxes. Some minor damage to a side panel fortunately it was not very noticeable and easy to hide.
Quality has gone downMgI'm disappointed : ( I've been saving up for one of these for a long time and I was so excited to get one finally, but during the assembly, I noticed how cheap everything felt. We had one of these when I was a kid and the components were much more solid, the shelves felt sturdy and even the wooden pegs used to be twice as thick but now they're very long and skinny and the shelves are so light and thin. I was flipping one over and I could hear the particles inside moving around. We were careful when setting everything up, aware of how brittle it all felt, but one of these pegs still snapped, and there was only ONE spare part (for 64 pieces). I've built and taken apart and rebuilt older IKEA furniture several times without a single peg ever breaking. Now it's all put together, but it wobbles like mad, and I feel like it won't support much weight. Even the connection between shelves/sides aren't great, there's a few places where they don't align perfectly and leave small gaps.
GreatMitraHolds soooo much and easy to build and super cutie!!!
Great looking shelf unit!MichelleIt's such a great shelf unit that I bought two, one for my office and one in the dinning room. It's well built, versatile and is a great addition to my home.
buy it, build it, and ENFORCE itLolliC'mon, the KALLAX is a beauty. But! Like everyone says, you need to affix it to a wall if you're putting heavy objects on it. Further! My husband, after building it, screwed in 5 wood boards across the back. Only now is this sucker truly stable. Longer story: this unit replaced our existing Kallax (1 of 2), which fell sideways with the weight of 1500 vinyl records. Nightmare. You'd think we wouldn't buy another, but it matches the 2nd one, and I like matchy-matchy, and he felt certain he could reinforce it's strength. We were surprised, upon sawing the broken one down to drive it to the dump, that the 4 sides of the unit are hollow, filled with a squiggle of cardboard. Guess that's part of what makes it so affordable. We have smaller versions too, and 8 years later, their strength integrity has never been an issue.
Love itAprilGreat in any room,strong & very versatile

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
