Ratings and reviews

Nice but wish they were a bit more sturdy LeilaI wish they were a bit more sturdy. I bought these one specifically because of using them for toys. I wish the base was more sturdy. 3
Very sturdy for lots of storage!KarenPerfect size for Kallax shelving. Love the texture and colour. 5
Exactly what I was looking for! AbbyBought 2 of these to put on my Jonaxel shelf and they fit and look perfect! They are super deep and fit a ton of stuff and are the perfect height on the shelf so you can’t see into them either. Saw some reviews talking about how difficult assembly was, I wouldn’t say it was easy but it wasn’t super difficult. Once I did the first the second was quicker to assemble. 5
Nice but hard to assemble AndreaGood basket but was hard to screw the screws in due to the material of the item. Took a while to get it set up. 3

Surprisingly poor design for an IKEA productDavidAppearance of the baskets are great but compared to the BRANAS baskets these are incredibly poorly thought out. Having to put in 8 terrible quality screws that aren't magnetic, don't seem to seat well on any size of screwdriver, and have no pre-drilled holes is a big enough ask. Add to that the need to hold the brackets in place while also holding the entire basket square means that this is instantly a two-person job...to assemble a small basket. I have assembled dozens of IKEA products without issue, this was the first time I was questioning their design department's decision-making abilities. Because the store is nowhere near my home, I am keeping these but I regret my purchase already and have no confidence they will last very long (one of the screws ripped out of the product during assembly but hoping gorilla glue will hold it). BRANAS is a much better product which costs less.2
Love these cube basketsDebbieThese look great on a shelf!! a bit of a pain to put together but once they’re together, they’re awesome.5

Cute ContainmentLauriePerfect for hiding toys, junk, craft supplies or whatever! Fits perfectly in Kallax. Easy to assemble by placing open basket upside down on flat surface, place basket base in vertically to keep basket open and square, screw in metal corners with (8) screws into the pre drilled holes. Done ✅5
Lovely solid basketsSusanThese baskets are sturdy, attractive and functional. However, this basket required assembly. All baskets that I have purchased previously only required unfolding. These require assembly and were a little annoying but beautiful so perhaps worth the effort.4
Excellent storageSusanHad 2 of these from the days when they came put together. So that means they last forever and look very good. My new Kallax absorbed the original ones and I bought 6 more. Brilliant idea.5
Looks nice, but…RocioA real pain to put together. Like other reviewers have mentioned, there were no preset holes to put the screws into, making it unnecessarily cumbersome to put together.3
Very hard to build andAngelicaVery hard to build and pieces coming out of it3

I love them. They are strong and great-looking. I liked them so much that I purchased 8 of them again. I had a problem putting them together, but the person who did them for me had no issue at all. They could be a little cheaper.

Organize your home and help keep waterways free!

Water hyacinth is a beautiful and fast growing plant that unfortunately clogs the waterways where it grows. The dried stalks can be used to weave baskets, bowls and plant pots. This helps to naturally control its growth and create a better water flow, plus you can organize your home with beautiful objects made from nature.

Material

What is water hyacinth?

Water hyacinth is a free-floating plant that spreads quickly in tropical waterways. When covering the surface completely, it blocks out sunlight which disrupts biodiversity. Also, local communities suffer as transportation routes are clogged. When harvested, biodiversity is restored and waterways are kept open. The plant itself becomes a resource too. The stalks make a flexible material that can be woven or braided into unique baskets, mats and other home furnishings.
