I bought this desk and it has a great magnetic board in the back that looks like a whiteboard. Have any of you guys tried out using dry erase, and did it write and come off okay?
The description does not mention dry erase and the IKEA support folks I talked to just said the description doesn't mention it so it's a no-go.
Has anyone given this no-go a go-go?
Has anyone had to disassemble the Micke corner workstation to put it in a different room?
The "locking screws" (those big ones you probably covered with stickers when you assembled it) are hard to unscrew, the trick is to not try to fully unscrew them but instead go very slowly until whatever it's screwing together comes loose!

I watched this guy's videos (below) to see how it was all put together and kinda reversed the process. It was actually quite easy once I understood which way all the fasteners went and what to loosen/unlock first. https://youtu.be/tatIKKtx1SU

I've had the Micke corner workstation in my bedroom for a few years. I work overnights from home now though, and it's not ideal to have my partner sleeping 5ft away (for either of us). I want to move it out to my living room, but as far as I can tell, there's no way to get it through the doorway in one piece. The instructions include all of the little steps of adding shelves and whatnot and I end up too lost to try to reverse engineer it. Is there an easier way? Is it possible to just remove the hutch from the desk, or do I have to do it piece by piece?
I think if you remove the locking parts (110126) at steps 30, 32, 38 and 44, the ones that hold on to the screws added in step 24, the top part should come off in one piece.
