Wish I Could Have Seen It On DisplayKatieOverall it’s a nice piece, but it does not serve my needs. The South Philly store did not have it on display (or, at least, not that anybody was willing to show me), and if I had seen it, I would have not purchased it. The drawers are not as deep as expected (based on the measurements listed online), and the drawers extend to only about half of their full length, making it difficult to put anything sizeable (such as a notebook) in them. For what it’s worth, it was easy to assemble and looks nice when complete, but I wish I hadn’t wasted the hour drive and the hour assembly to figure out that it doesn’t actually fit my needs.2
Best shelf everHabraanI currently using this shelf under my tv. The shelf was easy to build, easy to hang, spacious for various items.5
Terrible super dissatisfiedAndleenI am honestly so disappointed and upset. The Ramshults (which is the unit to hang up the shelf) Two of them came broken. I went to buy another one. When I tried to hang it up it was not durable enough it took me about 2 days to try and get this up on the wall. I put so many holes in my wall to do this but it just was not stable enough. Also it does not come with holes in the shelf. You have to do it yourself.1
Simple Set of drawers but versatileMikeI needed a table top drawer for napkins in my dining area and this fit the bill. I already had a base so the fact it did not require legs was an advantage. It would have been nice if it also came in black but the finish is nice.4
FunctionalKristy P.Returned as it did not fit my space. It's a very nice streamlined shelf but was much larger than expected once I brought it home. I did measure, but it just looked out of place. Unfortunate.5
Perfect size to store my Watches, Jewelry and KeysBobbyI was looking for a place to store my watches without putting them back in the boxes and the rest of my jewelry, and the Ekby Alex fits perfectly on top of my dresser. I bought some peel-and-stick velvet material to line the drawers with and now it's the perfect spot for my watches to be and keeps them within easy reach. I wish it came in black, but all I saw online was white, I did see black available with the shelf brackets, but I wanted something to place on top of the dresser and this works well. I use one drawer for my watches and the other for my jewelry and keys.5
Fits just rightJackieWe needed a small storage unit to complete the sewing room layout. These Ekby Alex units fit just right. Yes, the drawers are small, but I needed a place for storing small items. Easy to assemble (especially after assembling several other IKEA units). Served our purpose beautifully.5

Great drawers for what I neededSamanthaThese are exactly what I needed for the space. Disappointed that the back was not also white. I need it to be so I used contact paper to disgui6the ugly look of the open wood.3
Gift for our granddaughter!DebiGift for our granddaughter!5
Awesome shelfAndyThis is a great shelf - it has some some drawers inside the shelf. It is super easy to assemble and I really find it useful on a day to day basis. It is a nice way to add some drawers to a place that would not normally have them (under a shelf). The ONLY downside is that it should come in some colors to match the other IKEA lines for drawers and dressers. Only having white means that it could possibly stick out in a room of all blue furniture. A black/brown offering would be a good next one to add - then maybe a woodgrain would be enough, but the new blue would be great.5

Our take on wood

Wood is the material most commonly associated with IKEA furniture, and for good reasons. It’s renewable, recyclable, durable, ages beautifully and it is an important part of our Scandinavian design heritage. At IKEA, we believe that sourced in responsible way, wood is a key change driver for climate mitigation. In 2012, we set a goal that by 2020 our wood would be from more sustainable sources. We are happy to announce that we have reached this goal and today, more than 98% of the wood used for IKEA products is either FSC-certified or recycled.

Forests are critical for life on earth

Forests contribute to maintaining balance in the atmosphere, purify the air that we breathe and are part of the water cycle. They nourish wildlife biodiversity and provide homes for indigenous communities who depend on forests for their livelihoods. 90% of plant and animal species living on the planet need forests to survive. They provide sources of food, fuel, timber and many other ecosystem services that we rely upon. Sourcing approximately 19 million m3 of roundwood per year from some 50 countries, IKEA has a significant impact on the world’s forests and the timber industry and a huge responsibility to positively influence how wood is sourced. Responsible wood sourcing and forest management ensure that the needs of people dependent on forests are met, that businesses can work sustainably, that forest ecosystems are protected and biodiversity is enhanced.

100% wood from more sustainable sources

At IKEA, we work with strict industry standards to promote responsible forestry. We don’t allow any wood in our supply chain from forest areas that are illegal or contain high conservation values or from forest areas with social conflict. Before starting to work with IKEA, suppliers must demonstrate that they meet IKEA critical requirements on wood sourcing. IKEA requires all suppliers to source wood from more sustainable sources (FSC-certified or recycled wood). All suppliers are audited regularly and non-compliant suppliers are required to implement immediate corrective actions. By working together with our suppliers, we are proud to announce that we have reached our more sustainable sources goal, which we set out to achieve by 2020. Today more than 98% of the wood used for IKEA products is either FSC-certified or recycled.

IKEA Forest Positive Agenda for 2030

As pressure on the world’s forests and the surrounding eco-systems increases due to unsustainable agriculture, the expansion of infrastructure and illegal logging, it is time to take an even more holistic approach to protect and support these important resources for generations to come. The IKEA Forest Positive Agenda for 2030 set out to improve forest management, enhance biodiversity, mitigate climate change and support the rights and needs of people who depend on forests across the whole supply chain and drive innovation to use wood in even smarter ways. The agenda focuses on three key areas: • Making responsible forest management the norm across the world. • Halting deforestation and reforesting degraded landscapes. • Driving innovation to use wood in smarter ways by designing all products from the very beginning to be reused, refurbished, remanufactured, and eventually recycled.

We accomplish more by working together

For many years, IKEA has partnered with businesses, governments, social groups and non-governmental organisations to fight forest degradation and deforestation and increase the volume and availability of wood from responsibly managed forests both for our own supply chain and beyond. We are on a journey to improve global forest management and make responsible wood sourcing the industry standard, contributing to building resilient forest landscapes and improve biodiversity.

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.
