Reviews
Not worth itAnonymous reviewerBought this to protect my unit but even the slightest spill or mark doesn’t wipe off. Leaves a horrific white mark after trying to clean and I’ve tried everything!
Great idea, but doesn’t look great in blackAnonymous reviewerI thought it would be really nice to add this black glass top to my unit. However this is really difficult to keep clean. Any spec of dust, or the slightest touch with your finger will show
Bought to colour coordinateAnonymous reviewerI bought this to colour coordinate with another item close by, it's a great item and makes your top look lovely and shiny. Very affordable too.
Great Addition Anonymous reviewerArrived safely and, thanks to the ‘cardboard’ tip, installation was quick and very easy. Finishes the sideboard off to perfection.
Makes all the differenceAnonymous reviewerI have two Besta units which I originally ordered without the glass panels, but the finish on the bare unit is quite easy to scratch, so I decided to invest in the glass. And I'm SO glad I did! It's black, so luckily I didn't have to worry about being able to see speck or bits that got stuck under it while I was placing it on top of the units, and once it was in place, I couldn't believe the difference it's made to the entire look of the units. Really pleased I made the effort to get it! I'd highly recommend it, not only for the look, but as protection for your unit top.
Top tip that I stole from another reviewer on here! Once you've put the sticky pads on your unit top, place a strip of cardboard, which is thicker than the sticky pad, next to them on the unit top. Leave enough cardboard so that you can pull it out from under the glass.
Place the glass on the unit top, on top of the cardboard. Shuffle it into place, then slide the cardboard out and stick the glass down hard.
Beautiful Anonymous reviewerA very rich item
Glad I brought this will protect the top of the cupboard Anonymous reviewerJust finishes the top nice. Glad I brought this will protect the top from hot cup marks
Very goodAnonymous reviewerProduct is very good, it can turn your standard furniture into a fancy one
Double check the glass before positioning the fixers Anonymous reviewerWe put the sticky fixers on the glass then noticed a black dot on the glass. Thinking it was something under the glass I tried to lift it and it brought with it some of the top of the unit. These fixers are obviouly far too strong if they can take the top of the mdf off with it.
Excellent quality Anonymous reviewerExcellent quality, looks good and finishes off our furniture piece - very happy.
Used to look all whiteAnonymous reviewerHad one of these glass tops in white and the glass was brilliant white. Why change it to a green tinge. Now can’t match new besta unit to previous one. Sort this out Ikea please!!!!
Perfect! Anonymous reviewerJust recently purchased the Besta glass top in white/green and on with reading some past reviews was a little sceptical with the colour. I already have the black version which is prefect.
I have a white unit and wanted to top for this. On fitting the glass top , it is not very green as expected it’s normal green tinge glass colour. I can see the white top of the unit through it. It’s just perfect. I am so pleased and fits perfectly.
Tips to perfectly align glass top on your ownAnonymous reviewerEasy way to perfectly align glass on top of cabinet on your own...
1. Stick the adhesive strips onto each corner of the cabinet top around 2 cm from edges and get 2 thickish pieces of cardboard and place them in between the adhesive strips on either side.
2. Peel paper off adhesive strips, then lower the glass panel in place and make your adjustments until it's perfectly aligned then gently pull out the pieces of cardboard.
Hey Presto! Perfectly aligned glass top without any help! Also, don't remove the sticky plastic film from the underside of glass, I think it's there in case the glass top shatters and it's a nightmare to get off and clean. Just make sure plastic film is the bottom.
Tv panel Anonymous reviewerWaste my money, I wish I could give less than one star
Looks lovelyAnonymous reviewerReally good finish to the Betsa
Not happyAnonymous reviewerReally not happy. Today we added a new besta unit to what we already have at home only to realise the glass top is a different colour to all our others. Seem like you have stopped doing the glass white top. So upset, now not sure what to do.
DisappointingAnonymous reviewerVery disappointed. I wanted clear glass but this is green with white paint on the back!
Smart looking, fit for purposeAnonymous reviewerSmart looking, fit for purpose
besta dark grey glass topsAnonymous revieweri am so pleased that ikea brought out the grey glass it was just what i wanted, they must have read my mind. I've wanted to add glass tops to all my besta but decided that the besta would look better without the glass rather than with the black, ideally they needed to be grey to match rest of decor etc black would not have looked right. i was a bit disappointed at first that it’s not shaped for the tv units cut out as have 2 of those but i easily solved by just unscrewing the plastic where wires/tv bracket goes and they now fit flush, took just a minute. i don’t have the tv brackets and my tv units are away from walls due to skirtings anyway so it’s not an issue. i have bought several grey tops for all my besta around my house.
Makes a great desk padAnonymous reviewerI am very happy with this for the alternative purpose I am using it for, as a desk pad/mat. It looks great on an Alex desk and helps to protect the surface. Just one question. Is the clear film stuck on the white, underside of the glass supposed to be left on or removed before use?
