Reviews

Hate themAnonymous reviewerDrawer doesn’t sit right, slightest bump and drawer springs open1
Minimalist LookAnonymous reviewerA lot of people seem to be having trouble adjusting these and to be fair they are a bit fiddly. You have to spend quite a bit of time twisting the red roller and setting the small grey switch for it to look absolutely flush. When you do eventually do it, the final look is pretty close to perfect. One caveat I found was the inconsistency in only one side closing sometimes, although that might have something to do with how much of a gap you leave between the drawer and unit. 4
Not a 2 pack!!Anonymous reviewerThis is sold as a 2 pack but infact it's just 1 set of runners. I now need to order more packs which will delay my project being completed. Change the wording Ikea!!2
Push openerAnonymous reviewerThese push runners are brilliant so quiet and and easy when opening5
Fiddly & Misleading Anonymous reviewerI purchased 3 pack thinking i would have enough for 6 drawers. Please change the wording to 1 set not a 2 pack. I have now got to go back & purchase 3 more packs which is frustrating. Very fiddly to adjust & get into place. Once I'd figured it out via a youtube video, they are very sturdy. 3
Pack says 2x but is not two runnersAnonymous reviewerWhile I understand NOW that this is two runners (as in two sides), having 2x on the box and "pack of 2" on the item listing is misleading. You wouldn't just bug one side of a runners, so this should say "one set". Otherwise, a good product just really needs the listing updating and the box.3
Just a terrible designAnonymous reviewerAs others said, it sticks out from everything else, even when other items have push to open mechanisms. The adjustment screw is really rubbish and even after adjusting the drawer will not sit evenly across the unit.1
What have you done!Anonymous reviewerThis is a new mechanism to my last assembly. What have you done? Consider myself competent and skilled and somewhat pedantic leveling and adjusting. These are awful. Gave up and bought self closing. Very poor. Disappointed.1
Runner for drawersAnonymous reviewerEasy to install. Fit for purpose5
Ok - but impossible to adjust perfectlyAnonymous reviewerPotentially being harsh with only two stars, but then it depends what you’re comparing to. These open and close smoothly and are much better than some cheap flatpack drawer solutions - which might be entirely plastic runners or just a groove in the drawer. However the drawer/drawer runner combination still represents the element that annoys me most about the Besta system. Whist some limited adjustment is made available for the ‘depth’ and ‘height’ of each drawer, ultimately Besta drawers are near impossible to line up 100% perfectly. Besta’s doors/hinges aren’t perfect either but on the whole seem easier to successfully even up the spacing between doors than aligning any drawers.2
Looks really good Anonymous reviewerClever product, works well, but adjusting it is a bit fiddly.4
Works a treat. Anonymous reviewerI installed these draw runners in to 2 tv stands (4 draws in total) they were easy to install, draws went in fine - you push the back in first and then drop down on to the hook. no problem, easy to remove if needed. Don't see what the problem is - maybe ikea have revised the design. The only thing I found misleading the 'Contains 2 packs' yes - it has 2 runners - which is enough for 1 draw!5
Excellent Anonymous reviewerBought this as a tv unit for the living room. It’s easy to put together, sturdy and well made. Looks great! 5
OK Anonymous reviewerWorked as expected so far, will have to review long term durability3
Really bad Anonymous reviewerIt look really simple but it’s very complicated draw not worth the money 1
Besta unitAnonymous reviewerYou’ve got to love a besta unit, so versatile. Loads of storage and choice of doors and combinations to suit our storage needs.5
Component Anonymous reviewerPart of the unit 5
BESTÅ drawer runnerAnonymous reviewerWorks as expected, easy to install, would recommend4
IffyAnonymous reviewerHard to review a drawer mechanism……but….can be temperamental with one side locking in only.3
stupid idea, get the soft close versionAnonymous reviewerI had gone through buying the separate parts to build a Besta drawer unit and these were "pushed forward" to me on the website during that process. I have only ever seen and purchased the soft close version, so I added them by mistake. Seems obvious now, but a push to open/close drawer will always have to be ajar to allow the push to open, about 8mm in this case which not only looks odd, but will let in quite a bit of dust. Bought 2 sets of soft close hinges to replace them. £20 wasted, thanks Ikea!1
