Offgassing, Outgassing is strong and severeRobertI recently assembled a new Hauga cabinet and am extremely annoyed and worried by the intense, chemical particle-board odor filling the room. Even after 2 weeks of keeping the window open, the pungent smell has not gone away, meaning severe offgassing from the boards. I like IKEA products and have lots of them in the house but never this severe outgassing. I would not wish this problem on anyone. If it weren't so big and already screwed into my wall, I would return it to the store.1
Good quality cabinet with deep storageMelissa MI like this cabinet and use it in my craft room to display finished projects.5
Beautiful!StaceyI purchased two of these and put them next to each other and they look amazing! They were very easy to put together!5
These are poorly madeJulieThey are poorly made crack easily1
Looks great in my living room!JohnnieI got these and the matching center unit I'm using as a TV stand for my 50" tv. It took me forever to decide on a set for my living room wall. I'm 59 and downsized to small 1950s bungalow house. Some sets are too big or too bulky. This one is perfect. Love the little angles on the top. They match the angles on a vintage built-in phone stand in my hallway. Perfect height, really makes my small place look taller. Tons of storage and pretty sturdy. I had task rabbit put everything together. It looks really nice and fits my TV wall perfectly while leaving space for the HVAC return. Thank you ikea! Great experience!5
Great bookcaseMarionwe love it, it is perfect for what we needed it for and for the space we had.5
Very happy with HaugaMaryWorks great in our dining room!5
Book shelfAngiePurchased two bookshelves they work great for our needs in storage and looks good matches our floors and other furniture and tv in the center from another IKEA shelf we’ve had for 5 years5
great valueSusanassembly was straightforward - just pay attention to the orientation of some of the pieces with holes (the assembly instructions do point out and you can see which way you should orent the pieces)
you do need 2 people to join the top to the bottom base
i hope the particle board holds up (read some reviews here where that could be issue if you have heavy items)
otherwise so far, so good5
Perfect storage bookcase comboLisaAssembled easily and the shelves held more books than expected.5
Stylish bookcase/cabinetLeanneWe put three of these together as a wall unit and they look great! This holds so many books and pictures. The doors hides items that may not be so visually pleasing. These cabinets keep things looking organized and stylish. We are so glad we have them. 5
ShelfThaliaVery strong, easy to assemble5
Fairly easy to assembleJenniferThey look great and were generally easy to put together. One of the two bookshelves has noticeable flaws. I'm surprised no one caught this during quality control.4
3 years in...Doors falling apartMyaThese have looked so nice in my loving room, fits perfectly, held up well except for the doors. The doors come already assembled, so its not something we did wrong, but the doors are falling apart one by one. They don't even receive extra heavy use, just normal use and out of the 12 doors in my 6 cabinets I've had to glue 6 of them back together, one of them fell apart so badly I could not repair it and another one fell apart today. Everything I assembled myself has held up great. The cost was high enough I would not recommend these to someone who wants something to last more than a couple years apparently.3
Looks GreatMorganThe Hausa bookcase is nice. The grey color is neutral and works well with blues and other shades of gray. The shelves adjust in the top and bottom sections making it easy to store many different size items.5
Sturdy and roomyPatriciaLove how much storage these cabinets have. They are also very sturdy and not at all wobbly. The depth of the shelves allows for storage of larger items than most shelves. 5
Great storage pieceSophiaThis has so much storage. I'm using it in the bedroom, but it can be used in any room. It's very tall and sturdy. 5
Damaged doors Anonymous reviewerCabinet is great other than damage to the bottom two doors. Is there anyway to get replacement doors ? 2
Hauga High Cabinet with Two DoorsSharonWell... this is an attractive, sturdy, solid unit with a great design. A breeze to assemble -- until one gets to the hinges. Actually the hinges are not the real issue here; it's the screws. Just like the Havsta series that have hinges, the screws for these hinges are extremely sub-standard in quality. They are junk, making it quite likely that even the most skilled and meticulous assembler will fail to align the doors perfectly. Like I said, the rest of the parts assemble beautifully. Get some good hardware and raise the price if you must, IKEA.4
