It just takes a flick through a photo album to see that some of the clothes we used to love might make us wonder 'what was I thinking?' today. And as the way we dress has changed over the years, so too has our approach to making storage at IKEA. That's why we've designed PAX/KOMPLEMENT clothes and shoes storage to adapt to how you would like to store your things, rather than trying to fit your clothes and accessories into an unsuitable space. An idea that's shaped its whole development.

Reviews
Poor quality wardrobeAnonymous reviewerI bought this today for our son's bedroom. Followed all instructions to the letter, went to raise the wardrobe to put into position and it collapsed like a pack of cards. There were 3 of us doing it so it wasn't as if I was on my own. Completely folded in on itself. The whole thing was destroyed. In frustration, I smashed it to bits. Wasted £80. I don't believe the reviews were people say they managed to do it on their own. It is a pile of rubbish. I am fuming. Don't buy this product unless you get an IKEA fitter (or 6 of them) to do it for you. Just awful. I am so annoyed and angry. Never again.
Poor quality - FlimsyAnonymous reviewerWish i had read the comments first. This wardrobe cannot hold its on weight, it fractured during assembly straight away. everything is just weak, i had to add 8x L shaped brackets internally to stop it from crushing under its on weight. The backboard is flimsy too and just keeps moving in and out even though its been nailed down.
The addon doors are shocking, if you breathe near it the paint comes off, again they cant hold there own weight they flex like a tissue if you dont pick it up the right way. recommend at leaste 6 people per door when lifting.
Big big regret. i have a table coming from ikea and just considering to cancel the order at this rate.
Flimsy designAnonymous reviewerHave had to order one replacement frame, as flimsy design split the wood during assembly.
Amazing !!!Anonymous reviewerCouldn't be any easier!! Seriously, built two by myself in no time at all, built 236cm high with 1.5cm clearance, such an ingenious design they are built upright, just amazing.
Best Wardrobe By FarAnonymous reviewerSo easy to build and looks class
Rubbish Anonymous reviewerToo flimsy, wouldn't recommend unless you want a stress headache.
Fantastic wardrobes as usualAnonymous reviewerGreat wardrobes.
We got the Pax/Storklinta wardrobes and they look and feel amazing - in particular they look really sleek and expensive. The soft-close is a lovely touch, and we also upgraded to add the lighting which I would HIGHLY recommend.
I have never had this before but would now never go without - it is instantaneous and looks so professional. It's also amazing how much of a difference it makes when comparing to using a different wardrobe we have which now feels dark and dingy.
Cons: They are very tricky to pin together/level by yourself. Even a master Ikea DIY-er can struggle to move and adjust them alone and it's a bit of a time commitment to put a couple of them up.
Also it's pretty easy to accidentally scratch the paint/veneer off while putting them up which is a shame.
Ultimately though, for the price you are getting amazing value for money and a great set of wardrobes.
I definitely recommend 'design your own'.
Looking greatAnonymous reviewerEasy to fix the more you do. All screws and bolts etc seem to work perfectly
pax wardrobeAnonymous reviewerhow how they used to make them. it seems flimsy but it looks good. I just hope in time it doesnt bend
Poor qualityAnonymous reviewerReally thin veneer. Will scratch if you look at it the wrong way. The bottom supports are so flimsy. Brought two units. Three of the four base supports broke during construction. Brought these as a permanent fixture for my bedroom. Doubt they will last more than a couple of years. The female bolt threads for the adjusting feet just don't stay in place. Thought pax was the premium Ikea wardrobe product. Not premium in any way. Cheap and nasty. Both units were slightly different colours.
Terrible qualityAnonymous reviewerUse to love the pax wardrobe system but the new screw less system is terrible. Just hope you don’t have to move the wardrobe because it doesn’t stay together very well and the laminate and chip board split easily. The old system of attaching the back board last was much better because the frame was locked together. This all joined system only takes a slight knock and the back board breaks away. Disappointed.
Solid optionAnonymous reviewerPerfect alternative to custom built in wardrobes.
Just what I neededAnonymous reviewerEasy to assemble. Clear instructions.
Poor qualityAnonymous reviewerHad to get replacement panels after one was damaged on delivery. Now after about 6 months draw hinges have failed. Wood quality seems to be an issue, very brittle and fails easily. Can't imagine it would survive a disassembly for moving.
100cm wide too flimsyAnonymous reviewerHad only built 50cm wide Pax in the past but bought two 100cm wide x 236cm tall this time and regret it. The frame is too big to have any structural integrity. We had to use the backboard to keep the entire thing square and the backboard itself is far too flimsy. Any slight push from a hanger or clothing on the inside makes the back flex and has popped off in places. The big frames desperately need a cross brace at the back.
Very poor qualityAnonymous reviewerI was under no illusions these would be good quality but they were worse than expected. Very flimsy structure, cheap fittings that break easily, veneer on top of chipboard is wafer thin and splits very easily (better cross your fingers you don’t need to unscrew anything as will leave visible damage).
FlimsyAnonymous reviewerWas so flimsy. Backboard came away from. Returned.

Story
Because one size doesn't fit all
Have a little look around — not too obviously, just a peek. Chances are, even if it's just different coloured socks or another colour of scarf, there's no one dressing exactly the same as you right now.
Which is why it stands to reason that our clothes storage shouldn't be exactly the same either. It's this idea that led us to develop the PAX/KOMPLEMENT clothes and shoes storage. Designed so that no matter your passion, fashion or personality, your clothes and accessories will have a practical home.
The evolution of storage
The only similarity is difference
“Most people dream of having an organised wardrobe where they can see all their clothes and accessories. But that's where the similarities end", says Betina Tviis Larsson who developed the PAX/KOMPLEMENT system. Traditional storage often shoehorns you into doing things a set way, whether its folding t-shirts or sorting out a sock drawer – something Betina wanted PAX/KOMPLEMENT to step away from. "We didn't want to say there's a right way or wrong way to keep your clothes. If you want to hang your jeans by their belt loops we want you to be able to do it”, Betina says.
Multiple personality order
To get the design process off on the right foot, the design team focused on what kinds of storage do different people need. "We started by speaking to a lot different people in the team and around IKEA", Betina explains. "To try and determine different personalities and different needs. And what we ending up with was this big inventory of preferences and types of things that needed to be stored". By designing around personalities, the team started to develop types of storage that would fit collectors and families just as easily as minimalists and people with very little space. "The whole idea that defined the project became, don't change your personality, change your wardrobe instead", Betina says.
Fitting in function
Bringing this research together, the result is a series of interior organisers that can be adapted for particular uses, from multipurpose drawers and hangers, to specific features for everything from shoes, to trousers, to jewellery. The idea is that each organiser can be mixed or repeated as you choose, so if you want to store your whole sneaker collection inside, or have everything hanging, you can. "I really like to use space in a good way", Betina says. "With this system you can tailor your one wardrobe frame into hundreds of combinations." So whether you're a 'super organiser' or a 'piler' type of clothes person we hope you'll be able to match your storage to suit your style.
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.
Function solution
Customise it to your style and build it to your space.
With the PAX wardrobe system you can build a storage solution that suits you, your clothes and your room. Combine interiors with frames in different heights, widths and finishes - and choose hinged doors or sliding doors in a style you like.
