A month ago I put together a six-drawer dresser. Ikea was kind enough to gift me with two extra dowels.. which had me concerned at first... and still somewhat concerned.
- matthewmacleod 9y agoI can put your mind at ease - every IKEA product I have ever assembled (and I’ve done houses full of them) is supplied with two extra dowels. I’d guess they occasionally split or something, and the cost must be so low it’s worth including them.
- stevewillows 9y agowell, that's fantastic news. I do wish that they'd mark them down as spares or something.
- taneq 9y agoI believe they bias the packing process towards having extra pieces rather than missing pieces, since a few extra parts cost less than returns or sending out replacements.
