Kallax BaseNicoleLove it! I like the extra height it gives my kallax organizer and how it makes it look more complete. Easy to assemble and easy enough to add to the shelf.
garbageCharlesThere's no stability at all unless you were to mount the shelving unit on the wall while using this product. The legs and compatible shelving units would be better served if there was a bracket to connect the two at the legs rather than the wheel that are screwed on the bottom of the shelf legs.
Amazing!!FeliciaI LOVE this because it keeps the cbed shelf off the floor and I can easily clean under it without having to move it. However, it does move pretty easily with the cubed shelf on it. It took 10 minutes to put together.
It’s Perfect!SindyI have an older coveted glossy turquoise Kallax unit and this turns it in to the perfect tv stand! May be my favorite piece of furniture.
The BaseNelsonA perfect compliment to my shelving units. The bases look wonderful and lifting the units off the carpet enhance the look of the units and the entire collection.
I ordered bases for the previous units I have.
KallaxJacquelinThis addition to my kallax units is excellent and upgrades the look to furniture.
Fresh new look! TeresaThese shelf lifts/legs give my KALLAX shelves new life and a fresh new design look! I love them! They are sturdy and make cleaning under the unit and the bottom shelf easier as well.
Missing pieces/short BrookeI felt like I was going crazy until I saw another review for this product. I spent hours trying to figure out missing pieces, only to discover that like others this doesn't fit under my frame and the screws won't allignto the bottom of the shelf. I too thought this would be a simple fix and no longer have the box. It's quite a trek for me to go to the IKEA store nearest to me, so this is really frustrating.
Didn't fitDanielleThis did not fit under our unit at all. The screws did not align and it wasn't even as long as our unit. Really bombed because I threw away the packaging and put this together.And now I'm left with it with nothing to do with it can't use it. And have out the money that I spent on it. Really mad about that
Perfect for the shelfYvonneWorks great with the Kallax shelving.
Does not fit my kallax - unsure about stability EmmaThe product was easy to put together. However, it did not fit my 4x4 kallax, despite being shown on the website with a 4x4 kallax AND noting in the description it fits units up to 58". As others have noted, once you assemble the base, there's no way to secure the unit to the base. Your kallax essentially just sits on top of it. Even if you anchor the kallax to the wall, that doesn't seem very stable and I'm not sure I would trust it anyway.
Does not securely attach to KallaxRyanPurchased this to attach to the KALLAX tv unit. I did not realize the under frame does not attach securely to the KALLAX unit. Even if using wall anchors this could be an issue if the frame somehow gets knocked loose and could pose a danger to younger individuals. Or the lack of stability could cause damage to items falling out of the shelf, or even a TV on a stand that is not wall mounted. Debating returning both for a BESTA because I don't want to risk my electronics being damaged.
Ok for a base but would prefer better style MichelleOk for a base but style that matches the kallax cubes would be preferred-- or a mid century modern style. Just personal preference.
Thank you
UnstableAnaAlthough the looks is what I was going for. The stability was sub par. There was nothing that fastened the shelves to the frame. Do not purchase if you are looking to use this with shelves in a multiuser room like a living room or tv room. Too much risk in tipping over or shifting from the bottom frame.
Needs center support! center shelves sag!!TerraI love the idea and the look but 6 months later and my shelves are sagging down the middle. These leg add-ons need center support!! If you are adding heavier objects to your shelving (I am a paper crafter) I do NOT recommend these. Now I have to unload both my 16 cube units to add support that should have been part of the design.
Does not fit old kallax systemBaileywanted to love this but un fortunately our kallax is the old model and has a larger foot print then this.
Not Compatible BrennaIt’s not made clear in the product specifications that this base is NOT COMPATIBLE with older Kallax models. It’s also not made clear that the Kallax models themselves have changed in specifications throughout the years. There is no way to attach this base to the shelf, so if you decide to keep it, it’s wildly unsafe. Ikea should make this clear or update the base to make it compatible with all generations of kallax for people trying to give older ikea furniture new life.
Needs another pair of legs in the middleNanIf you're storing heavy objects like books in the middle sections of the Kallax shelf, the whole thing will deform slightly and sag in the middle as the rigidity of the Kallax shelf and this base is not enough. For a shelf as wide as it is, the base needs another pair of legs in the middle to support the weight.
Not for older kallax modelsTonyShould have read the reviews about this not being compatible with older Kallax models. Only to figure out when placing a 4x4 unit on top to see it doesn’t fit. Should have been disclosed in the product listing.
Kallam baseDonnaThe addition makes the piece look more like what I wanted to use the kallam case for and raises the height
