IVAR Storage Solution Buying Guide

About the IVAR System

The IVAR storage system from IKEA offers a flexible and customizable solution for organizing your home or office. By combining various components like side units, shelves, and cabinets, you can create storage tailored to your specific needs and available space. The system is designed for easy expansion and modification.

Care Instructions

For a durable and easy-care surface, treat the wood with oil, wax, varnish, paint, or stain.

Environment

The IVAR system primarily uses renewable wood materials sourced responsibly. IKEA has clear requirements for all wood used, including a ban on illegally harvested wood. As of 2020, all wood comes from more sustainable sources, defined as certified or recycled. The material in this product may be recyclable; please check local recycling rules and facilities.

Safety Information

Secure It! Prevent tip-over injury. Furniture with included restraints must be secured to the wall according to assembly instructions. Use hardware suitable for your home's wall materials (sold separately). For proper stability, complete every second section with an OBSERVATÖR cross-brace.

Good to Know: Load Capacities

Maximum load capacities for IVAR shelves:

  • 16" width, 11" depth: 40 lbs
  • 16" width, 19" depth: 66 lbs
  • 32" width, 11" depth: 77 lbs
  • 32" width, 19" depth: 99 lbs

How to Build Your IVAR System

Start by assessing your storage needs and available space. For the first section, you will need two side units, shelves, and a cross-brace. Extend the system sideways by adding more sections, each typically requiring one additional side unit, connected with shelves or a cabinet. It is recommended to fit a cross-brace to every other section for enhanced stability.
