Lower quality and finishDeyaniraIKEA has definitely decreased the quality of its products. Recently purchased this item of which I have another few in my home. I was surprised to find many boards had rough finishes with filaments of the coating being present, the boards were dirty, and some board were dented. Very disappointing.3
The sewist’s dream storage.YolandaTake 2 Kallax units and secure them horizontally back to back. Attach casters to make it easy to move. Outfit the cubbies with drawers or storage bins of your choice. Then use a Torsby table top on top to support an ample cutting mat. The sewist’s dream storage unit and cutting table! Note: The Kallax 2x4 units are constructed to be more structurally stable in the vertical position. I added more support for the casters. I Love it!4
Perfect, versatile and stylish shelfAinuraKALLAX is an amazing and very practical shelf unit. It looks clean, modern and fits into almost any interior style. The shelves are sturdy, spacious and hold their shape well. Assembly was quick and easy, and all parts fit perfectly.
I use it both for storage and decor, and it looks very neat and organized. Great quality for the price. Highly recommend!5
Doing it!MichelleI am so pleased with the Kallax. It is being used in the dining room as a buffet and is definitely money well spent.5
Love the versatilityRobertaI bought this to put my television on and am using the cubbies to store wood, kindling and fire starters. Not only does it do a great job at containing the wood, but looks nice with my farmhouse decor and furnishings.5
Sturdy and SmartKennyRobust and sturdy, easy to install and excellent optimized storage5
Perfect for everyday usageJessicaI love this item. I use this for my twin toddlers dresser. I added pink cubes where I found it cheaper on amazon. But the shelf is very sturdy and easy to put together. It took my husband not long to put it together. I love how it comes with floor sliders where its cloth so it doesn't scratch the floor.5
Kallax shelves are greatMarvieKallax shelves are great but I wish they are able to carry more weight on each of its shelves.4

Best ShelfJessicaMy husband and I have purchased at least 4 Kallax shelves. They're the best for storing toys, misc items and blankets! Pretty easy to put together and way sturdier than other similar shelves!5

Great shelfDavidEasy assembly and worked well for crafting supplies. Plus matched the IKEA table as well.5
Modern and elegant!JennyVery happy with this unit! Love the way the glossy finish reflects light from the nearby double French doors, highlighting the clean lines. It provides a ton of practical storage next to our kitchen table, while the cubbies display all my favorite dish ware!5
high quality for such a budget itemSheralynI live in MN and have resisted IKEA for decades...then I bought the Kallax. beautiful, easy to put together. And here's the weird thing...it has a very pleasant energy, similar to when i buy solid wood furniture.5
It has tamed my addictionPamI must confess, I have an addiction to a craft cutting machine. You know the one, it pronounced like an insect. My craft corner was mayhem. Card stock everywhere, tools overflowing, rolls and rolls of vinyl crammed anywhere I could shove it. But not anymore. Everything has a place. With this shelf unit and the various inserts, it has brought control to my weakness of crafting.5
18 years!SusanaI cannot express more satisfaction about this item! I bought this when I had my baby who is now in college. My family and I bought 4 units, 2 small and 2 of these; we have used them all over, they’ve endured 3 different moves Accross different states, they’ve been used as family room tv console with storage, as bathroom storage, office bookshelves, display for awards and collectibles, plant stand, you name it! And still sturdy. Needless to say the best item ever purchased5
