Great shelfAnnieI love the versatility of the IKEA shelves. It was easy to assemble and holds a decent amount of weight.5
Simple, Practical, ModernBarbaraOn a relatively small budget, I was able to create a small office within a larger bedroom. I used 3 Mittzon acoustic screens to enclose my sit-stand office desk and 3 Kallax shelf units (with double-drawer inserts and shelf inserts). The result was a very functional and attractive office. The screens provide privacy and a feeling of quiet calm. Thank you, IKEA!!!5
ShelfMaryProvided a division of one shelf to add some space.5
Love itJuan CarloExcellent choice5
Works well to make shelf.LauraEasy to build and insert yourself. Makes a handy shelf.5
It doesn't fitAliaDoes not fit the actual shelf. The worst part is that it doesn't fasten together so it's just a bunch of wobbly pieces put together with some pegs. It was a pain in the ass just moving it from the floor to the shelf. 2
Perfect FitHeidiExactly what I needed, easy quick assembly and fit perfectly5
Easy to assembleLindaPurchased for shelf & is working as expected5
Record storageNickUsing for record storage. Works, no issues.4
pegs vs. screwsSaraI would rather that the shelf divider have screws to fasten the unit together. my purchase came with pegs, and the pieces do not hold together. disappointed.1
Leaves big gaps. Misleading pictures. Do better IKEA!MilindThe pictures show this fitting snugly in the kallax. I bought this to organize my vinyl collection. In reality, I was sad to see that it leaves over half a centimeter gap, and to add to this disappointment, when assembled it isn’t very stable. I’m guessing the lack of stability wouldn’t have been an issue if it had got in snugly as promised. 1
Kallax organization shelfLoriHandy shelf to give you an extra organizational space5
Great dividerVeronicaI have several of these and they are great for dividing the cubes into two equal pieces.5
Wonderful Addition to the KallaxKathyThese shelves are a wonderful addition to the Kallax storage unit.5
Nice addition. RitaLove having the inserts to make storage more versatile. Can be used vertically or horizontally.5
Doubles the storage! MelanieGreat help for storing paperwork and office supplies in the Kallax cubes5
Kallax insertAliciaIt is perfect! The glass shelf allowed a little more space but this works great. 5
Insert is repositionableBlahajI like that felt strips are used instead of screws. This allows me to pull it out and slot into another cube. Which I did.
I couldn't find measurements online so I'll provide my own here:
12 5/8" wide,
6 7/16" tall for the top shelf,
6 3/8" tall for the bottom shelf.
The difference in height from the two shelves looks to be from manufacturing tolerance, combined with the tiny gap left above the side panels. The shelf is level, and the difference in height isn't visible to the eye, that is what's important.5
All in its placeSabineEasy to put together and keep things seperated.5
Wrong Size ListedOliviaThe size they listed is inaccurate. Rather than 13", one side is 13 and 3/10ths. Doesn't actually fit in my cubby system which is 13x13x151
