So easy to put together.BrendaWhen I purchased these I thought they would be difficult to assemble and the instructions hard to follow but I was completely wrong. It was just so easy to put together and the quality was good. If you need a custom closet but are on a budget get the IKEA pax system; you won't regret it.5
Easy install TimThe PAX system is amazingly easy to setup and install…the fold out cabinet is genius!5
GoodSangeethaEasy to assemble, but the back board for big wardrobe, I definitely recommend more strong and steady. Overall it’s okay. 4
Overall good product IsabelleI liked the condo size (not as deep) for use in a small bedroom. I didn't want it to overpower the space. I had the larger pax version years ago and the quality has seemed to decline. The glass of the mirror doesn't seem that great and the handles are a little hard to grasp. Is worth looking at in-store if available as the drawers are not very deep. I assembled in a corner right against a wall to save space so the door can only open straight and not swing backwards. Because of this the door doesn't stay open and I have to open a drawer to keep the door from closing on me. This may be because our floors are slanted. I did not buy the clothing rod that comes with it but filled it with drawers and a shelf. Overall looks good and holds a fair bit. The cost adds up if you buy a lot of drawers. I bought mine on FB marketplace and just the frame and doors at ikea. 3
I love Pax for storage! They help organize everything extra in one place.ColletteGreat product. I like the new assembly instructions. 5
Easy and solidPaulaYou need 2 people for building a Pax but once you open up the box, it's surprisingly easy. The Komplement shelves just pop right in once you install the brackets. I am very happy with this Pax and will be buying more.5
Instructions EhretiaThe instructions do not have any written instructions just pictures so I had to u-tube every step. Would be helpful for Ikea to have a how-to video for all their products that require assembly instead of relying on a random person video.5
Walk in closet good quality LeonoraI like the material and the appearance appears durable and classy 5
Feels a bit more like flimsy cardboardKimRecently bought an additional pax system to add to our current set up. We were a bit surprised to notice the quality/build had decreased quite a bit. We’ll have to alter a few bits to ensure it’s strong enough to last. 3
too much Cost-engeineringAnonymousi was very disappointed with this product, there are only 4 screws in the cabinet and they are all used to hold the cabinet to the wall. everything else is attached with plastic inserts that seem to be of the lowest possible quality. assembly is difficult because it has to be done standing up against the wall to compensate for the lack of rigidity of the cabinet.
the particleboard looks really flimsy, and when I put the only screws in, it felt like it was going to split... which doesn't give me much confidence in the retention system.
finally, the measurement for the height of the support bracket on the wall seems never to have been tested in a real-life situation, since it's just the right height to interfere with the metal bracket when fixing to the wall. It looks like a measurement taken from a 3d assembly that hasn't been validated with a prototype.

It’s a great option for a bedroom wardrobe. You can customize your wardrobe. AliceOverall a great product. Sturdy and straight forward to assemble with the help of YouTube. IKEA instructions a little confusing at times. Very happy with the product. Made very well. 5
Putting it to gatherr.SheldonAfter getting all the materials in house it worked out. I did not get the frame until after delivery of the shelves and baskets etc.4
New Pax wardrobe FailsAltafbased on the previous PAX system that we had purchased in our old house, we were looking forward to upgrade the closets in our new home. What a disappointment. Easier to assemble, but lacking in Finish. The new finish is more delicate and dents easily. The surface is not as good as the old ones. Shame on Ikea to downgrade the quality on such a useful product!3
Great buyNicoleBest to visit the store to see all the options available when making decisions on what layout you want. 4
Built in closetSusanWe bought many of these for a huge walk in closet. They look great. Only thing is how sore my fingers got trying to push in so many diets!5
