Reviews

Good product but…Anonymous reviewerVery pleased with this unit though the instructions indicating which way up the sides go could be clearer. Also the screws which are meant to hold the drawer to the metal runner are too short.5
Very bad drawerAnonymous reviewerTop two small draws are very bad. I have to pull it so hard that my arm hurts1
Very good but not up to standardAnonymous reviewerBack of drawers very tight and needed to be trimmed to allow a snug fit after some hammer blows. Parts of the sides broke off in process. Usually IKEA engineering does not require brute force to assemble. Once assembled, the drawers functioned well and overall product works well now.3
Can't fix five drawers inAnonymous reviewerCan't fix five drawers in. Poor 1
Alex drawer unit.Anonymous reviewerQuick and easy to put together. Sturdy materials. Very practical with deep drawers. Excellent as a desk support.5
Great Drawer UnitAnonymous reviewerAmazing drawer unit, plenty of psaces for all stationery and just a great office help x5
For My daughter desk.Anonymous reviewerPerfect material, easy assembly, good size and shape5
Easy assemblyAnonymous reviewerPerfect piece and perfect size5
Awful configuration Anonymous reviewerWhoever designed these draws should be fired, the pull out draws themselves cannot even be fitted correctly as the screws are too small. The desk’s small supports below (the black plastic) comes off so easily that it is impossible to move the desk once you have built it.1
Bad drawersAnonymous reviewerThe drawers need to be redesigned. They break very easily.1
BrilliantAnonymous reviewerNice design goes well in any room but instructions confusing4
UsefulAnonymous reviewerI needed these to put all my sewing threads into as they were in too many different places now I can reach them as I sit at my machine. They also provide extra support for the desks/tables that my machines sit on.5
IKEA QUALITY DOWNHILL Drawers have brokenAnonymous reviewerQuality of ikea just isnt what it used to be cabinet stains an marks easily drawers collapse metal brackets fall off2
Lovely drawersAnonymous reviewerBrought two of these in white for my daughters make up vanity with the white top, ive just brought the same ones in grey and grey top for my vanity my daughter loves the grey so much she now wants them alos got x2 more of them in grey for bedside cabinets gutted cuz I paid £75 for each one there now at £55 ech looks like ill be replacing her white ones for the grey ones now 5
Price and quality has gone downAnonymous reviewerBought a second one of these drawers, now to a reduced price. And we can't help to feel that the lower price also reflects a poorer quality of the material. There were some inconsistencies in the veneer, hammering in the plastic nails also brought broken corners of the outside with it, a pre made chipped edge of one of the fronts etc. It was just several things that made this new drawer feel worse than our previous one that was purchased 1-2 year ago.3
Beautiful to look atAnonymous reviewerThe draws are Unfortunately not the great for us they are like sand and having to drag them open we both 2 sets and a desk and both the same we brought for our 5 year old and hes can't open them so sad really alot of money spend for them to be rubbish would bring back if they didnt take forever to pack up and down.3
As describedAnonymous reviewerThere's nothing wrong with the appliance however it is a little pricey for £70 it could come with roller wheels or foot adapters to raise its height 10-18 cm4
Great Anonymous reviewerEasy to assemble! And looks amazing! Thank you 5
Alex DrawersAnonymous reviewerI bought 2 of these & have them built up by IKEA I have them either side of my desk and they are brilliant as I am able to have what I want in them with having 10 drawers in total.5
Slightly damaged from inside the packagingAnonymous reviewerThe product is nice but some parts were already chipped and don't think will last long2

Material

What is particleboard?

Particleboard is made from recycled wood and sawmill leftovers – so wood pieces with the wrong shade, woodchips and sawdust become a resource instead of possibly being discarded. We use boards for things like bookcases, bed frames, sofas and kitchen frames. To protect from wear and moisture, we apply varnish, veneer or foil that adds to the furniture's look.
