Reviews
White deskAnonymous reviewerGreat purchase, just what my daughter was looking for, easy to put together slightly on the heavy side but lovely piece if furniture.
Good for a desk or dressing tableAnonymous reviewerMy family has already got 3 of these so I ordered one for myself to use as a desk. Very happy
Lining up the top harder than it should be.Anonymous reviewerAlex drawers are fiddly, but, if done methodically and carefully, are fine.
Fitting the top is harder than it needs to be. If IKEA added two dowel holes to the Alex drawer unit (already has multiple drilled holes for fitting castors), with matching aligned holes on the table top (already has multiple holes for different leg combinations), table top and Alex could all be aligned more easily.
The solution we used was aligning half of the screw holes in each Alex unit with the top using screwdrivers, fitting two screws, removing the screwdrivers then adding the final screws. All while the desk is upside down.
A couple of dowels and holes in each Alex unit would ease this alignment problem.
Easy and quick deliveryAnonymous reviewerFrom beginning to end, easy and quick delivery. Very helpful and polite delivery man. Products all packaged well. Make sure you read all manual first when assembling as you need to refer back to certain points, easy to assemble. Very pleased with purchases.
Best table I’ve ever had!Anonymous reviewerI brought this for a nail table, I’ve wanted it for years n years but never had the room.
I have to say it’s more incredible in person, I can’t stop looking at it! arrived within two days of ordering on fast delivery & was easy to put up. I’m so happy n glad I’ve finally got my forever desk. Thank you for an amazing order everything was perfect.
Office deskAnonymous reviewerFantastic desk, plenty of storage.
Very clear instructions, easy to build.
Strong piece of furniture
Drawers are a pain!Anonymous reviewerI have bought many furniture bits from ikea from pax wardrobes, kallax shelving systems, trofast shelving, hemnes drawers and dressing table you name it my house is full of ikea furniture I have personally built but this has got to be one of the most irritating furniture I have purchased from ikea. The drawers do not run smoothly and keep getting jammed as the system isnt like your typical old fashioned system. The frames come with ready attached metal sliders and the drawers also come with ready attached sliders. You'd think it should just glide effortlessly together but instead its anything but a smooth ordeal. If you're looking for storage drawers you want to wrestle with on a daily then this is the one to go for. On a plus note very sturdy and huge lots of storage if it were easier to use I would personally recommend to all but the drawers are just not it!
Good Anonymous reviewerWasn’t build and looks good aswell too
It just keeps getting jammed Anonymous reviewerThe side of the drawers keep getting jammed so they don’t close
Easy to build Anonymous reviewerEasy to build and feels solid
Desk qualityAnonymous reviewerPerfectly suited to my needs
Bad drawers Anonymous reviewerThe drawers don't roll back in like the side table drawers. You have to really put and push the drawers back in!
Great desk with plenty of storage Anonymous reviewerThe desk was straight forward to assemble and the draws are a great size. I’m very happy with it.
I love this desk!Anonymous reviewerBest thing I've bought - so much storage, and everything kept nice and tidy with the various raggisar drawer sections and skubb drawer organisers as well.
Nice deskAnonymous reviewerI had trouble with the instructions but after much swearing I got it. Probably due to my lack of DIY skills. Desk is ideal, very sturdy.
Recommend!Anonymous reviewerGreat quality, love the colour and easy to build!
stunning Anonymous reviewermy daughter had been bugging me about this for ages.
So i bought as final desk.
easy to put together, study, drawer’s run perfectly.
A great deskAnonymous reviewerI love this desk. It looks elegant and has so much storage. It is very easy to assemble, made even easier because the drawer runners are ready fitted to the side panels. Getting the top aligned with the fixing points is a bit of a challenge, but with perseverance I did it. Also the two guys who delivered it with some other items were brilliant.
Very solid deskAnonymous reviewerDelighted with this desk. It is very heavy and solid with loads of storage. Fairly easy to assemble too. I also bought matching drawers which look great. I had to buy 2 organisers which fit into the top drawers which I think should have been included because they were £10 each
Looks greatAnonymous reviewerSo its easy to put together once you know what your doing.However we put it the right way and you can't connect the desk top,so what we had to do was put the bottom panel as the top on the draws so you can then connect the desk panel.

Material
What is constructed board?
We use constructed boards when manufacturing many of our pieces of furniture, such as tables and wardrobes. They are light yet still stable and strong. Each board has a frame made of chipboard, fibreboard or solid wood, while the inside is a honeycomb filling structure made of mostly recycled paper, which is extra durable thanks to its special construction. The board is then covered with a protective paint, foil or veneer depending on the style wanted.
