Ikea BROR units
Anyone using the Ikea BROR storage units ?
Interested to know how thick the metal is on the legs, particularly on the work bench (wheeled or static). I'm inclined to think that the shelving units are a similar thickness.

Legs and shelves all made from (estimated) 1.5mm steel. With powder coating, finished thickness is 1.7mm.
Plywood top is 12.7mm thick.
Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

I had a look at the BROR system in store, felt it was a bit wobbly and nothing special for the money. I decided to just buy racking from Screwfix. I was very tempted by BROR for the drawers. I wound up buying three racks from Screwfix for around £200 (the red/black ones), vs a designed cost with drawers of something like £800 for BROR. I just couldn't justify it.

I needed something on wheels with a top at least 500mm deep. So that rules out most garage trolleys (tool and parts). Reasonably happy with the trolley, and it fits in to the space I'd allocated for it.
