I love the elegant simplicity of the IVAR modular shelving system. One of IKEA’s long standing products, the IVAR shelves offer a flexible storage system that you can continue to develop along with life’s changes. In our new kitchen the lack of space was a real issue, but with this shelving system you can create a unit that makes maximum use of available space. Bought as individual pieces, the end supports are available in four heights and two widths. Even the largest and deepest end piece is just £9. The shelves can also be purchased individually, ensuring you pay for just the pieces you need. With a fabulous packaging design, the shelves conceal two holes in which the supporting rods are hidden. Merely two inches long the steel rods pop into the line of holes along the end piece. The shelf features a steel channel at each end which then rests on the rods. A solid yet simple solution, the IVAR system is easy to adjust at anytime. Unlike many other systems the IVAR offers a clean smooth front free of distracting holes, making it perfect for use in living spaces at a later date. It also offers true freedom as there are no permanent shelves; each once can be set at the exact height you desire whether it needs to accommodate cereal boxes or canned foods. A dependable, solid shelving system IVAR can turn any spare corner into an over flowing larder. The IVAR example shown is available for £27 from IKEA UK or $59 from IKEA US. IVAR is constructed with natural untreated wood and is available with an optional black stain (£38 - $73).
