detailedReviews 3: content: Pleased with this desk. It is big enough to hold my computer setup, but I still have writing space and room for a lamp. The drawers are a good size. They were a little small for the trays from the desk this was replacing, but I made it work. The setup is sturdy and the surfaces easy to clean. It was also very easy to assemble. All of the parts needd were there. The colour was as it was supposed to be, and i like it even mire now that I see it. The drawers all work, which was a concern, but I have had no issues with them whatsoever. Hopefully continued use will not change that.

The only thing I had a little trouble with was the back face on the drawers. I had to pull apart slightly the pieces I already had clicked together in order to get that last piece in, that was annoying but once I figured it out, I just repeated for the rest.
I bought this desk for a make up "get ready" table and I am in love with it!!
I highly recommend this desk to anyone and its one of this easiest ikea builds I have done.

I think the only downside to it is when using the mouse it feels a little gritty with it being a slightly textured finish.

detailedReviews 47: content: As an office desk, it the perfect size, beautiful style and more drawers than I can fill. Super easy to put together also. I'm a retired senior citizen and had no trouble at all managing the pieces. Highly recommend getting the rollers (search "Alex rollers") for easy movement but be wary of the section of the product description called "You Might Like" which gives the impression that the Kuggis drawer organizers go with this set. They don't. I ordered two of them and found that they're far too large to fit the Alex drawers, or any other drawers in my house for that matter. Also, it would be nice if the product information provided how much weight the Lagkapten table will bear. I had originally wanted to use this as a sewing console but after I put it together, I didn't think the table would bear the weight of my Husqvarna sewing machine. The table itself is light weight for its size and feel that over time, the weight of the machine will bow the table. So, I'm using it as an office desk.

title: Heavy, solid, loads of storage
detailedReviews 55: content: Looks neat and easy to assemble. The OLOV adjustable legs are a bit temperamental to lock into a position (i.e. certain height) - it appears that they require some weight on them to operate. Time will tell if they will remain at the selected height under the weight of the tablet, monitor and whatever/reasonable paper loading to be placed on the desk. I'm a bit nervous about the legs (hence the 3 start rating on "assembly"/"works as expected"and placed as a precaution a set of Alex drawers underneath, hopefully unnecessarily.

title: Top board damaged, hid the damage
detailedReviews 66: content: Very good once built. But the assembly instructions probably the worst I’ve encountered in many years of building IKEA furniture. I had the version with both cupboards and drawer unit. Three big issues included wrong instructions re attaching the feet, and not highlighting the need to keep the drawer unit with wider gaps between runners at the bottom. But biggest problem was attaching the desk top to the two base units. The method in the instructions makes it nearly impossible to line up the holes and to drive home the screws from below. After internet searching I put the desk top face down on the floor and removed the top panels from the base units. It is then easy to attach these panels to the desk using the holes and screws provided, and then desk top assembly can be lifted back on top of the base units and the fittings retightened. Straightforward once I found this solution after a considerable time struggling. IKEA please amend the assembly instructions.

detailedReviews 67: content: Every time I try to save a little money and buy from Ikea I remember why I’ve promised myself I’d never do it again. So here I am sitting on the floor, so close to the finish line wondering why these drawers don’t fit in (this is after having gone back to the store twice due to defective parts). As mentioned in another review, pay attention to the orientation of the side panels with the rails; I’ve assembled mine upside down and need to take this whole ridiculous thing apart. I honestly just want to throw the whole thing in the trash. Aside from having to go back to the store twice (without so much as an apology or thank you from the employee…..which, funny enough was the same person all three times I was there for this desk), I thought the assembly was going so well up until this screeching halt. NEVER AGAIN (for real this time).

I was in tears when I realized that the process to attach the table top for this specific combination of the Lagkaten/Alex was Not clear in directions in step 6 that I needed to make sure the top of piece the drawer unit exposed the necessary holes that would later connect to the table top. I had to redo the unit as I had put that piece on the bottom of the drawer unit (which in fact is what you would do if it was stand alone). Then it was extremely difficult to attach it to the tabletop. Ended up watching a YouTube video that showed a gentlemen giving a few tips for this but it was still very difficult .

I didn’t want to chance more parts missing in the drawer units for the desk. The customer service person asked what the part number was. I laughed and said there is no part number, it is particle board. Go to page 15, step 25 etc etc. The wooden pegs have a number, but the panels and structural board pieces do not. We figured it out together. Drilling of holes was not consistent ie different angles, so I gave up. I hope to get my refund processed soon. The desk top and support pole were intact and looked fine. I did not trust the drawer units would have all the pieces for assembly.

Nothing worse than picking up a piece as you are building and finding it damaged. Two front drawers had crushed corners. At least 3 of the side drawer pieces had the back corner piece damaged. I decided that since it wouldn't be seen that I didn't want to deal with the hassle of requesting replacements. I did request replacement pieces for the drawers. Customer service was good. I was told it would be a week for the pieces to arrive but they arrived within a few days. The disappointment was one of the replacement pieces had a tiny piece of the laminate chipped off. I give up at this point not worth the hassle to call back. This is my first Ikea purchase. Was expecting better.

Despite receiving confirmation of availability and a delivery of ship-complete, I received an alert les than an hour before actual delivery that IKEA unilaterally modified my order, removing the desk from the order, and replacing it with two individual parts of the desk, but not the drawer units. So they delivered just parts of a desk, useless. IKEA didn't backorder the drawer units, didn't give me sufficient time to modify the order myself, only sent a late email rather than calling, etc. Multiple times customer service gave no real solution. They offered to refund a delivery fee if I placed a new order for the missing drawer units, but would not expedite pick/delivery of those, and insisted (despite what their website showed) that local stores had no stock available and therefore I should just wait, keep checking back, and then order once they confirm stock is available. Very disappointed in Ikea customer service.

I love the storage between the drawers and cabinet, plus I added a monitor riser which helps my eyes process the blue lights as well as creates many more storage opportunities for me. Overall, this desk has and will continue to leave an indelible impact on my work space and will continue to transform my work state into a more productive one.

detailedReviews 93: content: My boyfriend and I were looking forward to getting this desk for a long time and were happy to see it included in the 20% off desk sale. However, after checking out at the store, we were confused as to why the desk quoted as 20% off of $279.97 only rang up as 12 dollars off. How is 12 dollars 20% of $279.97? Based on our calculations, 20% of $279.97 amounts to $55.99. A vastly different amount than a measly $12. When we brought this to the attention of the cashier, she didn’t seem to care or even acknowledge the discrepancy. We couldn’t get an explanation so we went home frustrated. After doing some research we figured out that the “desk” “sale” is only applying to the desk top and not the other components. So while it seems that the desk would be on sale in total, it’s only applying to the $60 top. We wouldn’t have been frustrated if we knew this upfront, but it really left a bad taste in our mouth about this whole experience. Very deceitful and dishonest. We are disappointed.

detailedReviews 94: content: We bought this configuration for my teen daughter. Assembly was relatively straightforward. It would have taken only 2 hours but I did not like putting the support leg in the middle because it would have been awkward - her knee would have been constantly hitting it. We instead moved it toward the wall (which is actually how it was installed in the store display). We stripped the screws when we tried to install it so we had to use our own. That took another 30 minutes (to uninstall from the center, reinstall in the back and fix the screws). The drawers in the drawer unit are a little finicky, but just take your time with them and it will work out. The unit works GREAT for her space and she loves it. My only complaint is that the shelf unit needs an option to buy another shelf!

I placed an order worth almost CHF 2,000, including CHF 544 for professional delivery and assembly. What followed was a week-long chain of miscommunication, unfulfilled promises, and total disregard for the customer:
• I was assured multiple times by IKEA staff that my delivery would happen in the afternoon — a request they confirmed repeatedly.
• Instead, the delivery team suddenly scheduled it for the morning without notice.
• Then, on the rescheduled date, no one showed up at all — no call, no cancellation, no explanation.
• I had to sleep on the floor for several nights. Yes — on the floor.
• I rescheduled professional meetings, suffered physical back pain, and experienced immense stress — all because of IKEA’s failure to deliver a service I paid for.

title: Appalling delivery and assembly service
detailedReviews 98: content: This is a joke. I bought this desk 2 weeks ago. Ikea confirmed the scheduled pick up date - Sept 4, 2024 between 11am-12pm Eastern Time. Today is Sept 4, and just after 11am ET Ikea messaged me that the tabletop is out of stock AND I only have 24 hours to pick up the drawers or they will be put back in stock for sale. Ikea won't guarantee when the tabletop will be back in stock AND both chat support reps and phone support reps CANNOT contact stores to figure out a solution (e.g. would other tabletops that are in stock work, or could Ikea hold the drawers for me until the original tabletop is back in stock). This is INSANE. How can a support group have ZERO contact or ability to contact the stores? Ikea does not publish phone numbers for the stores either. Oh and if I want to pick up the drawers and roll the dice on the tabletop coming back in stock, I need to keep the drawers in the boxes if I want to have the option of getting a full refund. Terrible experience.

title: Terrible experience with stock and support
detailedReviews 99: content: Looks neat and easy to assemble. The OLOV adjustable legs are a bit temperamental to lock into a position (i.e. certain height) - it appears that they require some weight on them to operate. Time will tell if they will remain at the selected height under the weight of the tablet, monitor and whatever/reasonable paper loading to be placed on the desk. I'm a bit nervous about the legs (hence the 3 start rating on "assembly"/"works as expected"and placed as a precaution a set of Alex drawers underneath, hopefully unnecessarily.

detailedReviews 101: content: So its easy to put together once you know what your doing. However we put it the right way and you can't connect the desk top,so what we had to do was put the bottom panel as the top on the draws so you can then connect the desk panel.
