HOW TO FIT & ADJUST IKEA OLOV LEGS
In this video, I am sharing how to fit and adjust Ikea Olov table legs. I got so fed up trying to adjust them so I thought I'd share this simple how to.

Same. I thought I got faulty piece 😅
Thank you So much!! You did this two years ago and it's still helping deft skilled DIY people who don't understand IKEA. 😂😂
The problem I have with these legs is that, when tightening them the height would change a small amount which was different for each leg. I would pull out the legs to the exact same length and after tightening they would all have slightly different heights. 😂 It took a while of adjusting the legs over and over but now I have a somewhat level table.

that's the problem.. it is so cheaply made.. you have to guess how much it got shorten while you turn.. what a trash. I wanted just a sold leg but the cheaper model was sold out until december in Frisco, TX. so I was forced to buy this 'adjustable legs'...

Exacly, If something is too cheap compared to other options there is always a problem. Because of these stupid micro changes when you turn it is almost impossible to get it leveled.

THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH. 😅 I was annoyed at the thought i would need to go return them to a whole other town.
VERY helpful. You are the only video of a bunch I viewed that pointed out the 'trick' with the OLOV leg tightening is simply many, many turns. Thank you!
🙌🙌🙌 I purchased this table second hand & thought I’d have to get rid of it. But you SAVED ME!! Thank you SO MUCH!!! ♥️♥️♥️
This was driving me crazy. I bought this idk 5 years ago so forgot how it worked. But I needed to adjust it again - thank you.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! One of the leg was already half way so I was convinced that the other one was just broken. I was getting ready to call the helpline but I decided to check the good old youtube first. Thanks for your lovely and helpful video!
Thank you!!! I was about to have a breakdown I already had to go back once today to return the wrong table top I didn’t want to have to go back to return legs. You’re amazing!! Thank you for making a video!
Thank you for this! I thought mine were broken so I Googled it and found this video, didn't expect to twist as much as we have to lol!

This is so helpful. I was so frustrated that i bought these expensive legs instead of the cheap once they have. And i couldn't fit them for two day. That was so stressful and disappointing. BUT thanks to your video.. I just did it.and it is just a hustle trying to balance it. Thank you
Great video, nearly went crazy. Thanks a lot!

Thank you so much for posting this. I found it very helpiful. We are hacking the Kallax unit and making it into a kitchen island. I was having the same issue as you, as my husband who beleives he never needs instructions, threw them away.
Oh my thank you so much, honestly I was losing my mind doing this, nice one
Thank you! Thank you! I've had these legs for years but I moved to a new house and to the whole thing disassembled. But when I put it back together I couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong.
I was ready to toss these, you were completely right about keep on twisting! Haha!
No kidding, it is a lot more twists - I thought I was wrong after 20 twists with hardly any tension. 😮 I was a little embarrassed about looking this up but I guess I'm not alone. Thanks 👍🏼

Thank u sooooo much!! Just what I needed
Great little vlog Deborah, my daughter always taught me that the rule is.....left is loosie and right is tightie. So if you want something loose then turn it left, if you want it tight then turn it right! XX

Thank you so much for the video. This was driving me crazy.
I couldn't thank you enough. I had mine exchanged twice. And even the IKEA personnel couldn't help me. Instead I got instructions not to twist and turn multiple times 😂, stating "the alignment is sensitive".
Good work👍
