Legs do not lock in placeCarolynI must have received a faulty item because these legs do not lock in place and I'm not stranger to putting IKEA things together. Now I'll have to return and find a suitable replacement for my table.1
DIY desk must haveTaraUsed these legs along with kallax cubes and butcher-block top to create a perfect desk/station5
Wobbly Legs DanielleUnfortunately, these OLOV legs are terrible. Even with the use of a level, etc. the constant shaking is unbearable. I now am going to try the ALEX ones next. These are not worth the money. Hope they're returnable.2
Bought 14 and 5 were defective older units.PatrickThe locking mechanism for 5 of these Olov legs refuse to catch and lock. Upon inspecting the legs that lock just fine it’s clear there was a fix later on and that they kept the old stock in rotation. If you disassemble the leg you will notice on the threaded bolt one version has wings to catch the lower cone, the faulty ones do not have this. I have to return these now and I guess play the lottery on which version I’ll receive with my next purchase. 0/10 do better IKEA. A complete waste of time and resources 1
Awesome productToddAs described and exactly what I needed.5
I love itGiseleGreat product and good quality!5
2nd leg not staying tightCarlinI got the 72" top with 5 legs. I set each of the legs by the marks, and even used a level and made little adjustments. After about a month one of the legs started to become loose. I noticed because my desk started to rock. Now a 2nd one won't even tighten.
I don't have a lot of weight on my desk, and I had my husband tighten them. There is no way after 3 months they should be failing.
Get the normal legs and not ones you have to tighten by hand. 1
Ruined my table topKarlascrews too long that they went through the tabletop and ruined it. Hard to adjust legs.1
Great productSharonWonderful for a table on uneven ground. 5
Simply AdamConveniently adjustable for growing children. 5
Great legs LiseI used two of these for my daughters built-in desk. Worked as expected. Easy to install.5
Can't tightenXiuxianI bought two online and had them shipped to my home. My daughter has grown up, so I bought a table with adjustable legs so that she can use the table better. However, one of the legs could not be screwed in, so I had to return it, which wasted my time.3
Accommodates kids as they grow!AnonymousAbsolute best legs you can choose in this niche of assembling your own desk / table! They adjust easily, but hold firm and are quite robust. The numbering on each leg assures the same length / alignment all around. They allow our kids’ desks to grow along with them. Love these!5
Standard, goodDanielleUsing a couple of these for a long at home office table. 5
Over time, the height falls and couplers loosenShivaThese are junk, don't buy them. I've had mine for over a year, purchased for a growing child, and the whole desk is wobbly, the height doesn't stay put, and the coupler, for some unknown reason, fell off one of the legs, never to be found again. They were already a pain to level, but the overall design is bad.1
UselessMarjorie RUnfortunately, they do not hold their height. Also, the screw heads are so cheap a good Philips head screw driver slips constantly when tightening the attachment plate. This would make it hard to re-tighten over time, as the instructions recommend. Returning.1
Great product.BobHigh quality, easy assembly.5
Noise is driving me insaneErikEach OLOV leg has a little rattle inside of it so any time a desk with these legs is being used normally like when typing or writing on it, there is a non-stop clicking / rattling noise. If you are sensitive to annoying sounds, don't get these legs.2
Would Purchase Again MelissaThese adjustable table legs are great. It takes a little bit of effort to get them all aligned perfectly but they are pretty sturdy and work well with the table tops and the price is great! 5
Works HeleneI used this as the fifth leg for a countertop with a set of legs from another source and it worked perfectly. I needed a short leg, but wanted straight tubular for the legs that showed5
