Color ChangeRaymondThis panel is a shade different in color ( matte White ), then the original cover panels and it is thinner . I used it as a filler when I botched an original panel . I think that just painting a piece of clear pine or MDF may have been a better idea , it is on the end of the cabinet run , in a corner , so it is sort of hidden .
PerfectBarbaraGreat for laundry room
Kitchen MartinI am very pleased with how my kitchen turned out. Everything is as I expected.
No instructions or hardware for use as a filler piece.StaceyItem designated to be used as a filler piece for cabinets. No hardware or instructions were included for this application, only instructions and hardware for the application as a cover panel. While a cover/end panel is its primary use, if it is also designated to be cut down and used for a filler piece, instructions and, more importantly, hardware for that application should be included. Otherwise the panel works as expected and blends well with the cabinets
Its a detention panel to hide a gapAnonymous reviewerI cut it in half to make it go further; it's easy to install and blends right in.
Great discounts on return items.AnonymousBought this item from the sale/clearance section. I wish they would have more sales like this as it is expensive.

Good Quality, but Thickness ChangedRolandThe glossy white FÖRBÄTTRA panels are really nice. They enhance the look of my closets and allowed me to put two cabinet bodies on top of each other without a visible seam on the outside. What's not so nice is that the thickness of these panels was changed during my project. The newer ones are a little thicker than the older ones; I don't know why. The thinner ones looked more elegant in my opinion.
Panels are super thin and fragile! Finish is nice ! But basic structure is bad quality!JurisPanels are super thin and fragile! Finish is nice ! But basic structure is bad quality!
PinkHeidiWe had this in a different house. I think they changed the color because it looks pink. We returned.

Great quality and look. VeryMichaelGreat quality and look. Very easy to work with.
Sheer White with leaves patternNancyDepending on use, it may serve purpose. It is completely sheer. As a divider, unless you want privacy it serves the purpose. It let light through but there is no privacy.
Pay Attention to Width SizesAnthonyThis product comes in different widths that you don't catch until installation. Why have a different thickness for a panel that goes to floor and one that goes to the cabinet bottom? This should have been called out when ordering from the Ikea kitchen expert.
Kitchen cabinetRafaelVery poor quality!
Kitchen cabinetRafaelVery poor quality, i don’t know if the items i received was a customer returned items. Almost all items are damaged.
Odd thicknessMatthewThe finish is very nice but the thickness is 5/8”. Doors are 3/4” and smaller panels are 3/8”. Looks odd.
Very nice in my kitchen.PamelaVery nice in my kitchen.

Perfect match with cupboards we installed and used to fill in spaces between fridge and wall so fridge looks quite enclosed ! Small details make a huge difference in creating a minimalist look to the overall look of the kitchen !
Rita, Canada - Add finishing touch to the kitchen cabinet
To be honest I think the cabinets themselves are already quite nice. With the cover panel on, it makes the kitchen more complete and a bit more support for the kitchen bench.

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.
