[...] looking great (so much decorating potential!)… until my printer died. Yes, the one that was hidden oh-so-neatly inside the desk cupboard had to be replaced by this absolute monster. It’s an awesome printer, but see how it’s [...]

Hi Maree, I actually don’t have that printer anymore so I have no idea how much it weighed. If the info isn’t on their website I would call Ikea and ask what the weight limit is. Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful. Let us know how you go.

Love your desk & planning 3m version along sma bedroom wall. Really wanT to hide my monster colour laser printer:
Samsung CLP66ND (W x D x H) 432 x 432 x 424mm (17″ x 17″ x 16.7″
& weighs 25.6kg (56.4lbs). I can’t find max weight limits for Ikea’s pantry shelves? Did you find out or can you tell me how heavy your A3 printer is? Tx

Yay, Erin! The set on the right is the 60cm (24″) cabinet but the one on the left is the 50cm (19″) one. It all depends on how much space you have and how much stuff to have to store.

I’ve been drooling over your desk for a few weeks now, and I am finally going to Ikea to customize this idea to my space! Thank you for sharing all the details. I have one question – what size cabinets did you get? I’m trying to figure out if I need the 24″ or if I can get away with the 18″. Just curious what you decided to do. Thank you so much!

Alicia,

I’d love to have found your office almost a year ago… I have 2 tables from Ikea (vika amon 1,50m x 0,75m) and for never finding the proper cabinets for it (all office cabinets were too small), I bought a pair of vika leif legs for each table… for almost the same amount I could start building the kitchen cabinets…!
But I’m glad that I found you now. Just bought 3 cabinets (my budget didn;t allow me to buy everything as I planned, so it will be little by little…) and I’m already thrilled that finally I’ll have my big printer, my cricut and everything else (yes, they breed!) under control and out of sight!!!

Great project, and thank you for sharing it!!!
