Flimsy and not worth itAnonymous reviewerThe frame is incredibly flimsy and an absolute nightmare to put together. The design requires tee nuts to be hammered into the bottom from which you can attach feet. However, since the wardrobe is made from chipboard, it doesn’t actually have the integrity to hold the tee nut in place. The dowel pieces that are meant to hold together various pieces are easy to snap, and the screws that are also used don’t give enough support to hold the frame steady. My frame also seemed to have a manufacturing issue where a hole wasn’t drilled deep enough. This means when I connected two pieces, the dowel was forced completely through one of the pieces of wood, breaking it. Ikea has issued me a replacement, but I’m not confident another frame will be any better.2
Cheap and flimsyAnonymous reviewerHave just completely wasted one of the units I purchased as it was so flimsy, it fell apart while constructing and the screws ripped the chip board, so no way to resurrect. Also wasted a good couple of hours!1
Poor product. Anonymous reviewerTightener ripped out the bolts from the item straight sway. Fallen about mid assembly1
ProblemAnonymous reviewerBought from store but was faulty,had few replacements from hd team and both got damaged by hd team..not good at all.1
A great versatile wardrobeAnonymous reviewerWe ordered the pax wardrobe with four drawers and a rack drawer at the bottom looks great with panelled doors and added storage organisation5
Poor QualityAnonymous reviewerThe supporting legs rip the chipboard if moved when installing and the plastic foil wrap the units are coated in is very flimsy .... disappointing considering the cost of the PAX product range1
Good value for moneyAnonymous reviewerSo pleased with these wardrobes. Very easy to put together and with the different door designs they can elevate any room.5
AssemblyAnonymous reviewerThe design does not provide enough rigidity when assembling and lacks stiffness. This can result in collapse1
Great wardrobeAnonymous reviewerI’ve bought countless pax wardrobes over the years because the quality is decent, they are easy to assemble & dismantle if moving.
I love that you can design the hanging & storage layout to your own liking.
The only criticism is that the back of the wardrobe is flimsy & needs nailing on, a hardwood backing or at least a couple of supports across the back would make it sturdier.5
Awful qualityAnonymous reviewerNo idea why everyone raves about PAX on instagram. The quality is awful, cheap, brittle chip board. The back board is so flimsy. Awful. Not worth the money at all.1
Building the productAnonymous reviewerIt is easier to build the frame with each side vertical with the front of the frame on tbe floor as it is not structurally safe to move until the back is nailed on. This way there is no need to move the frame until it is complete. I ruined a frame because I followed the instructions and had to buy a new one. Otherwise the frame is perfect and looks amazing with my mirror doors.5
FittingAnonymous reviewerHad to go in a small alcove and fitted lovely5
Once assembled looks greatAnonymous reviewerTwo stars deducted for the length of time it took to construct this. I understand there’s a new design that’s simple to erect. Wish we’d received the 2024 version. Ours was still the old 2023 model even though it’s 2025.3
Does the jobAnonymous reviewerThere not made of MFC Melamine faced chipboard but more of a paper like finished board, so easier damaged.
But they do the job and seem to last.4

WardrobeAnonymous reviewerSlightly disappointed. I gave previously bought the 50cm wide with a solid back. So assumed, the 100cm to be the same. No, just a stupid thin bit of ply wood. Recommend buying 2 50cm wide and fixing together.2
