What is IKEA shelving made of?

Each board has a frame made of chipboard, fiberboard or solid wood, while the inside is a honeycomb filling structure made of mostly recycled paper, which is extra durable thanks to its special construction. The board is then covered with a protective paint, foil or veneer depending on the style wanted.

Incorrect spacing standard, sags down Dylan P. The designer in charge of this needs to understand that if you're going to space holes apart, they need to follow the building standards for studs in homes. If you align one side with a wall stud, NONE of the other holes will align with any other stud in your wall. Can't even burn the thing because of the plastic it's composed of. 1 Need Color Match - HELP DJ D. The shelf is great. I NEED a "bumper strip" or something to conceal lights and would like it to be THE SAME COLOR. Can Anyone Help me with this? Thanks! 5 Shelves Beth Hard to level them The bracket should be longer They look great 3 Good floating shelf at a reasonable price BEVERLY Even though these shelfs have gotten more expensive over the past few years, they are still a good value. You just can't put anything heavy on them or they will sag. 4 Shelf Tina I love the modern look of this shelf! It was easy to install and I have some in almost every room. So functional! 5

Just right! Elizabeth Easy to install and perfect! 5

Floating Lack shelf Edward These shelves are easy to install and have decent weight capacity when installed with anchors in studs or Speciatly drywall anchors. 4 So you have to buy wall anchors and drill some holes, beautiful shelves best value Charles H. Great price and value. Great look. I modified the 74” wide shelf for a 63” space. It comes with a mounting bracket but not mounting hardware. No, the pre drilled holes don’t necessarily line up with wall studs, but using screw in wall anchors and drill your own holes at wall stiuds provide a solid wall attachment. You can’t beat the price and look. 5 Shelving Scott First time ordering from IKEA and everything went fantastic ! 5

Can't hold its own weight Clarissa J. Unless you're planning on hanging this on a wall made of brick, stone, or cement, I would strongly advise against this shelf. Due to the spacing of the holes in the bracket, only one of the eight screws lined up with a stud. For the other screws, I used anchors rated for 46 lbs each. The shelf sagged badly immediately. I tried screwing it tighter to the wall, which helped for about 12 hours before it sagged just as badly as it did initially. Now that I've removed the shelf, I have seven gaping holes in my drywall from the anchors and one regular-sized hole from the screw (whish was already pulling out of the stud.) This shelf is not worth the sawdust it's made of. 1 Versatile! Gladys This was perfect as a mantle in my daughter's apartment. Simple, clean lines, good for a contemporary design. I also purchased a white one some time ago for my tv wall. They are easy to hang and sturdy as long as they're installed appropriately. 5 Love this as a floating shelf! Mary This is such a great option, it’s best is mounted in a stud. 5 mounting annoyance TODD L. WHY, why, why would you create a bracket that clearly should be screwed into studs and have multiple pre-drilled mounting holes, but nearly none of them are 16" apart? (to be fair, the two outermost holes are at 64" apart so you can hit stud with them but all the ones between do not hit studs). In fact, there are so many holes you would think that even by accident, some would be at 16. I bought one of these shelves nearly 20 years ago and it had the same issue and I hoped that this obvious and exceedingly easy to correct fault would have been corrected by now. Do better IKEA 3
