#02 Drawers - IKEA ALEX
#02 Drawers - IKEA ALEX
I’m using two black IKEA ALEX drawers to support the KARLBY top, and it’s still one of the most iconic desk combinations. I keep the desk unscrewed and use transparent adhesive cushions so it doesn’t slide, which also makes moving things around easier. Prices went up, but I still buy them because they work and IKEA covers them with a long guarantee.
Pros
- +Iconic, clean look that fits a dark setup
- +Stable support for a heavy countertop
Cons
- -More expensive now due to inflation
- -May need adhesive pads to prevent sliding if not screwed in
