Divorce lawyer should be included with this purchase!Anonymous reviewerNever have we encountered such a bad set of instructions that can test your patience to the limits!!
From step one, we couldn't work out what on earth connected where! Five hours later, we finally managed to mackle together the cabinet to discover one side was orientated incorrectly, so the racks couldn't be assembled, and we had to dismantle and almost start again !!
Oh, and beware - there is a piece at the back of the cabinet that has to slot down into the base - otherwise, like us, you have to take it all apart again!!!!!!!!!! (shame this wasn't shown on the instuctions).
Never again will we purchase this range of cabinet, but it is such a shame, as it actually holds our gardening tools in nicely and the shelves are wonderful to hold items such as gloves, wd40.
A video of the construction of this cabinet, by Ikea would have been more beneficial.1
Almost a nice productAnonymous reviewerWhen it is new it is useful. Lots of shelf space and a decent size to store lots of outdoor items. However the one thing that lets it down are the legs which are part of the entire structure. The metal is far too thin and mine have bent very easily. As they are part of the corners of the whole unit, you cannot just replace them either. It is a shame the designers/engineers did not take this item's real world usage into account. Otherwise it would have been super.2
Great storage.Anonymous reviewerI think this is a lovely cupboard as it's my third from that range, but instructions are a bit unclear and did cause a bit of confusion.4
Great space for garden storage Anonymous reviewerTook 2hrs to put together - 1 x husband and I helped a bit working out the instructions and holding bits! One of our doors isn’t closing as neatly as the others - think it might be misshapen - swapped the doors around and tried to correct the shape - bit better now but not perfect. Overall really happy with it though. 4
Well worth itAnonymous reviewerFantastic little storage locker. A bit smaller than I imagined but still very much functional. Not sure why others have said it's a difficult build, I managed it solo within 2 hours. 5
Worst piece of Ikea furniture everAnonymous reviewerInstructions were confusing same numbered parts but had to take it apart as we had put the wrong one on thought we had finished to find there were no threads to screw the one end of the hanging bars for the hooks so not able to use them. Areal pain of a piece of furniture. I have never had so much trouble building a piece of furniture from Ikea. 1
Would be nice to have some shelving optionsAnonymous reviewerThe cabinet is nice. It would benefit from some shelving in the larger area to make the most out of it as it is used outdoors.5
Terrible instructions Anonymous reviewerAt the beginning we thought there was going to be an improvement on the instructions as the panels were numbered but not in a million years would have thought that both number 3 panels were different neither the number 5 panels were also different don't put the same number on paneles that are different it would make instructions easier...also de hooking system is bad you hook one part and the other gets unhooked it is not easy to put together at all. 3
NiceAnonymous reviewerBeautiful looking product. Take your time on the assembly! instructions not super clear but fine if you're methodical. Concerned about how waterproof it actually is but proof will be in the use of it.5
Assembly issues.Anonymous reviewerThe instructions for assembly were not correct and were confusing. For an inexperienced assembler it might be a difficult process. But once the cabinet is assembled it is useful and sturdy.3
