We just installed pax in a kid's walk-in closet, and I love it so much. Can't imagine the shelves sagging at all..... he has books and shoes on upper shelves. I love the way the drawers glide perfectly and soft-close, and I love that everything is adjustable.

Are you sure that your friend's shelf was part of the original product? In the past, when IKEA changes specs, the product name gets changed, too. I had IKEA cabinetry for 16 years and never saw a shelf sag.

Thank you for the positive reviews. Here is a picture of her shelf. I looked into it after seeing her shelf and read online that IKEA changed the manufacturer/ material making it more likely for shelf’s to sag. However, it is the internet so I don’t know how true it is. Her house is only 2 years old and I was surprised to see the sagging but it could be due to the books on the shelf. It is the second shelf from top on the right side of the picture. I think I will look into it for my closet but just not overload it

Right. Too much weight on it. Try a few folded T shirts. Should be fine.

I installed Pax 15 months ago at the inlaws place. Still looks like new.
