expensive HarimThis is a good peg board, but I feel like it is expensive in terms of the price. Also, the material is neither sturdy nor magnetic.4
Proprietary, scratch/chip easily, can't be rotatedNatalieSo, I DO own a bunch of these, because they are more polished than regular pegboards, and offer more accessories, and more polished-looking accessories, than other products I've come across.
The bad:
The boards themselves are cheaply constructed and easily scratched or chipped, including by the very accessories made for them! REALLY wish these came out in a metal option, even if it had some cheaper backing to add the requisite thickness to fit current accessories.
Accessories/colors are subject to discontinuation, leaving future additions impossible or uncoordinated.
The mounting accessories only come in white, which looks terrible with the natural or black Skadis boards.
The rectangular board can't be rotated due to the proprietary mounting holes, limiting setup options.
The clear plastic storage bin accessories don't stay in place. They either should have been designed to angle downward against the board, so gravity keeps them in place, or utilized something like magnets.3
Damage EasyChristopherI wasn't able to fully install as all the panels were damaged in shipping. This isn't surprising because Ikea has chosen to use the worlds cheapest fiberboard. The pegboard material I have purchased from the hardware store for much cheaper uses epoxy impregnated fiberboard (dark and almost plastic). The Ikea material where the damage was shows how cheap the grade of fiberboard used is. Pressed cardboard with no apparent glue or epoxy.
Additionally there was no wall mounting hardware provided. This may have been a fluke. 1
Great Wall board PeterGreat Wall board that is super easy to install and works great 4
You Need These Things!!GavinSkadis panels are a must have for work spaces within your home. They are designed with functionality in mind, while maintaining a clean enough look to be anywhere in your house. I have gotten 3 of them so far and will be getting more. 5
Works great but the measurements are offQuanLet’s get the good things out of the way. It works well. Looks pretty good. But the measurements on the instructions are wrong. Don’t go off it measure it yourself. And the price of it has been a bit of a rip off they use to be half of what it costs now. I thought IKEA was supposed to be super affordable. Not increasing the price of popular items by double over time. Also it’s still particle boards just in some rugged paint. 3
The Skadis panels are greatKenI was able to 3D print accessories to mount tools and accessories. 5
Love itStacyEasy to install. Looks great. This is my 3rd one, I keep adding new ones 5
Don't buy itAnonymous reviewerSadly this thing looks amazing, but unfortunately their quality of products is going down and one of the top screw bolts needed to attach to wall is badly threaded. And then I need to drive 65 miles to the store to get a replacement and then 65 miles back home. Lets see 10 gallons ($30) when they didn't do proper build checks.,1
Great space saver!MelissaHung three side by side to store makeup and art supplies, acts as a memo board and art wall. Super sturdy, easy to hang, tons of options!!!!5
VERY Sturdy PegboardLauraVery sturdy. So sturdy that its not the type you should try to "cut to size." This is not a hardware store pegboard. Its very attractive and stylish. It definitely accomplished my organization needs.5
Wonderful Foyer or Mudroom itemKellyWe use this everyday and my husband said just the other day that it was wonderful and he liked being able to hang our keys up and his wallet in the tray by the front door. Great storage.5
Genius!CindyThis product is a definite space saver! For those who like items visual, it is a MUST HAVE. I am a out of sight out of mind person. But now, Viola! Everything is organized visually. No more lost items!
Also, all the accessories make it super customizable. Love, love, LOVE this product!5
Not a standard pegboardMichaelThe quality and craftsmanship are okay, but they do not support any standard hooks so you will have to buy the IKEA proprietary hooks and accessories which are more expensive.3
Great pegboard. Easy to hang.MichelleI love pegboards and Ikea's are a nice upgrade. Super easy to install.5
I am able to peg all my crap!JoseThis was very easy to install, I bought some of the add-ons and was not expecting them to be as solid as they are, over all I am pretty happy.5
Love it! RachelIt is working out so well in my space once I got this size. I love how I can customize what goes on it so it works well in my office space. 5
Peg boardCindyI love this board! Several months ago my husband hung two in my craft room (installed easily) and I have been so pleased with the handiness and organization all containers and hooks provide. My neighbor was so impressed after seeing my setup, she bought some too!
Most recently, we purchased one for young grandson. His dad put it near his IKEA PAHL desk to hold crayons, markers, scissors, glue, etc. Little guy says he’s so happy with the set up! Helps keep his area neat.
One caveat: all board accessories must be purchased from IKEA, due to the hole design. This is not a problem for us as all accessories are so handy and stable; plus, you can’t beat the price point! The overall look is rather classy I think. 😁5
Not usefulNicoleBought this for under my daughters bed was under the impression that it could go either direction because in store it didn’t say it Couldn’t.. get home try to put the accessories on it and can’t because it can only go vertical… can’t put it in my daughters room like we need to. Closest IKEA is two hours away and customer service was no help.1
too smallJudeAs for me, it did not serve the purpose. Too cramped for the accessories that can be placed on the board. 1
