Thank you!! It was super helpful seeing a professional do this. For anyone curious, it took me about 40 minutes for me to do this myself; was not bad at all.
We followed the steps in this video and it completely worked! I was about to give up several times and just leave it in the place where we installed it but persevered using the directions in this video and we were successful! Thank you
Just what I needed! I got this shelf for free and barely few months old, my neighbor next door left it and landlord asked would I take it. He'd break it and throw in the trash. We did slide door to door not damaging it. Now I'm thinking of moving but not without this shelf! I have lots of others and my plan is to dismantle and put them in U HAUL truck when the time comes :-) Thank you so much for this video!!!! The price of the new one is 165 and I'd get peanuts if I try garage sale or some online sale. I rather keep it
Thank you for posting this video I'm moving and have a few of these shelves and was stressing as to how these we're going to get moved but this will make it so easy! Again Thanks!
Thank goodness for this video, now I can dismantle mine and move it to the basement! If only I saw this video when I had to move out earlier this year... but never too late! Thanks!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I just bought one of these on impulse (used) to DIY it and I was freaking out about how I was going to take it apart by myself. I feel confident I can do this. THANK YOU!!!!!
Thanks...need to move mine to the basement for extra storage and had no clue how to take it apart easily. Mine is an old Expedit...but same piece. Best built piece of furniture I've ever had except for some antiques.
Thank you, this was really helpful, I put that damn thing together so long ago I was getting frustrated I couldn't find the screws lol it was of course on the top and bottom....
I wouldn’t worry if it’s only one dowel, however if it’s to hold a horizontal shelf you can always swap it with a vertical one to keep the functionality 😊🙌🏽
Thanks. I love my Kallax shelves. I think they're so stylish, but I felt like they were cheap, so I feel like I'm stupid for trying to move them. This helps to justify moving them if I can take them apart.
Omg thank youuu! I thought this was going to be impossible since I want to sell my kallax (so I can have a desk and hang cabinets above the desk instead)
3:04 was this a ghost or wind?? Also this is super helpful thanks…hopefully once I find one on marketplace they won’t mind if I dissemble in their lounge room.. I just hope they don’t watch.. I hate an audience with this stuff. If it’s in their lounge room they’re obviously going to watch me right?? Dang it, I’ll just a buy new one.. OR buy multiple 4 cube units off marketplace so I can put them straight in my car..
Only issue I have here is, a lot of us use these for Vinyl records and they weigh a lot, I am concerned about putting them back up and it collapse with my records on it, I have the 8 Kallax Shelf. I was told it would be okay but will it be okay?
Zan Gimondo Yes, dowels are really easy to pull out just with hands. Very few are stuck but will come out without any trouble with help of pliers. Have fun :) Thanks, Jinder
Excellent advice by STANLEY. However I am a clumsy, unfit, 5' 2" woman and I was able to bring my huge Kallax to the ground alone by balancing it from the centre. Just be super careful and watch your fingers. Thank you for this video!!
me watching him lower it to the ground alone while i can’t even push it 6 inches to the right
... and then they carried it downstairs. Wish they were here to help me!
🤣🤣 this seriously made me chuckle lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣

Moving my Ikea bookcases (7 of them) across country is suddenly not a worry about breakage! Thank you for your notes and demonstration!
thank you for posting this. the hardest part about deciding to buy one of these is figuring out how to move it.

I've just followed your instructions to the letter and it's worked perfectly. Thank you so much for this video.

As someone needing to pack three 5 x 5 Kallax shelves - BLESS YOU! :)
Thank you for posting this, it was very helpful!
Very helpful. I have nine Billy bookcases to move. It’s going to be one heck of a job, but I’m not sure they will fit on the truck fully assembled.
Thank you, this was really helpful, I put that damn thing together so long ago I was getting frustrated I couldn't find the screws lol it was of course on the top and bottom....
Thank you! I was stressing a bit because I’m moving soon and really didn’t want to pay $200 again when I just got it 🕺🏾
Very useful especially how you pack it neatly. Thanks!
Suddenly! You made my life a lot easier. Thank you 🙏
Helene Ferrarotti happy that I could help someone :) thanks for feedback :)
Thank you for posting this video. I want to buy a small system and I will have to dismantle myself.
Thanks for sharing. How long did it take?
I was needing this exact video! Thank you so much!
i was able to dismantle thanks to this instructions. I broke off one dowel though but just a minor thing

Thank you so much it was so much help!
Mine has vinyl on it, once I've removed the vinyl there is no space 😬 i can't imagine moving it either. But thanks for what is needed x

Was it difficult to pull the wooden pegs

Have fun :)
Thanks, Jinder
Unfortunately a couple of mine broke in half with using pliers so be careful. Thanks for uploading this video
Any tips for how to tip it on its side in the first step?
Yes.
