Topline 1 Report post Posted August 24, 2009 I'm looking for a rack system to install in my household shelter. Can across some in Ikea over the weekend. There are wooden ones and metallic ones. Any one has them? Are they durable? I have heard about Ikea products being not durable and am concerned. Where as can I get rack systems from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

newnyew 1 Report post Posted September 2, 2009 Hi topline, those wooden ones can take up to 30kg per shelf but i think it can take more. i had them for 4yrs and they r still very sturdy but i left it to the new owners. reason being, the wood is not treated so its very difficult to clean and the dust will just get thicker n thicker. so i bought metal racks this time.

hawthorne 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2009 why dun you get metal racks from those metal rack companies instead. They provide free delivery/ installation. Cost wise quite similar. PM me if you want the company I bought from. I wanted to buy from Ikea last time, decided not cos need to carry home myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
