I live in a rented apartment and since we moved in one of the (IKEA) bedroom closets has been horrible built.
The landlord commented that the previous tenant had taken them down, but put them back together when they moved out.
Didn’t look to closely but it was always a bit wobbly. In part thanks to covid we’ve ended up living here longer than planned and the closet was now almost tipping over, so I decided to take action.
Just disassembled it and apart from the back plates being taped together and held in with about 6 nails each, three of which was at the bottom, the upper shelf turned out to not be from this closet.
It has a label from IKEA and says it’s a kitchen shelf.
Took out the tape measure and sure enough. It’s 5mm to wide, and at least 3mm to deep.
Too late to do anything about it now, it’s 10’o clock, but it amazes me at the shit people do.
No wonder the cabinet doors aligned poorly and all.
