I did it! Alone OMG at 62, I did alright, it took me 4 hours the only thing I couldn't do is stand it up after the first 3 rows of shelves. I have the 5X5 one, The finished product is lying on the floor until my son and husband come home! LOL Thank you again. I did it!

Super helpful. For future info, IKEA is no longer making the bottom board brown. Everything is same color. Thanks for posting this.

I bought my 5x5 yesterday and it has a brown bottom.

Thank you! I just bought a smaller one and I'm going to put it together today. You made the directions clear and simple! Ikea needs to pay you for your videos! 😊

I did this alone too. Only took about and hour. Your video was so much more help than the instructions. The Kallax I purchased only had one hole for the wings and sides . Thank you so much for this video You made it so easy. If I do it again though, wear long pants. Carpet did a number on my knees.

I was going to pay someone to put mine up, but watching this I can do it myself. Thanks

Thank you . Old folks like my hubby and I appreciate your simple, detailed approach.

Just finished putting my 5x5 - by myself in a tiny room, without adequate room to work. Dang near killed me. I believe Dante once wrote a book about it. Never again. 😓

Thanks so much for this video ---- I struggle usually to do anything of this sort ---- however from the time I started opening the box til completion, including watching the video and pausing each step was under 45 minutes. Yeah for me. I might just buy another one.

This was super helpful since I didn't receive a manual w/ mine. Thank you very much for uploading this!

Thanks! I did a bigger one a couple years ago and it was awful. I just got hired to do this size and you make it look totally manageable!

Hey, i know that has been up awhile but still thank you. It made this job so much easier and is much appreciated

I am operating solo and followed his instructions-broke two dowels in the process. Don't recommend tipping over to use body weight, a good way to snap the dowels. I now have a damaged Kallax in 3 places. Also hammering can destroy the dowels and they won't fit in the holes. I don't have a remedy for this just push in as far as you can with your hands to preserve dowels, then tap with hammer.

I agree. Getting those small slats inside is really tough.90% goes in, rest needs hammering and gently. Too hard and kallax ply will break. Bad Ikea Design there.

Thank you so much, I've completed a 3 x 3 of these with your help.

Thank you so much. You just took the frustration out of me putting this shelf together.

You had me at "you're gonna have to screw this, you can't just shove it in there" ;-)

@@CreoleScorpio Some comes with both side same color for bottom and top. Not to worry, now you can flip your kallax and it still works :D

Thank you

What do you do if you have broken the big dowels and they don’t go through both fin panels!

Much appreciated

THank you!

But how did you place the drawers ???
