How do I assemble the IKEA Alex drawer unit?
How do I install the drawers into the IKEA Alex unit?
Can I stack multiple IKEA Alex drawer units?
I’m wanting to buy some Alex drawers. Can anyone tell me how difficult they are to assemble? I’m not very handy at all.
Hello,
I'm building my first set of Alex Drawers and I'm checking the assembly instructions while following video tutorials on YouTube. For Step #4 it's showing the cams with the "—" screw head, which is a plastic piece. In the few tutorials I've checked (publishing ranging from a few years ago and a few months ago) they all use the metal "+" piece - that the assembly instructions specifically show not to use.

Not really sure what to trust here.. does anyone have any opinion on this? Wondering if it's a recent change or just something everyone ignores. Thanks in advance!
