    They currently don't have these in the US, nor the glass Kallax door inserts. Both of these are SUCH good solutions and I cannot believe for the life of me that IKEA would think U.S. customers wouldn't buy these.

      I am so surprised it’s not available in the US but it is in Canada… usually it’s the opposite! They even have a multi-compartment one for paper and another one for wine bottles.

    The biggest problem with these (at least at my local Ikea in Canada) is that they're only available in white

      I quite the look of the white ones inside the white oak cabinet. It looks like a feature, not a compromise.
      But why didn’t they just use shelves and brackets like every other manufacturer would?

    Hi can you please measure the distance between the space of each shelf. I’m assuming the width is 13 obviously but curios on the height of each space. Please advise thanks

    Thanks for the video! Would it work to make the shelf more shallow (cut the depth in half)?

      You can paint or cover them with peel and stick paper and even stain them.
      There is a spray you can use to help the paint seal on the material. Hope this help
