Step-by-step assembly

  1. Step 1: In the box: the wire basket, the lid and the felt pads. — IKEA KVISTBRO assembly

    Step 1

    In the box: the wire basket, the lid and the felt pads.

    The manual covers two sizes — this is the 44 cm (17 3/8") table. The larger one goes together the same way.

  2. Step 2: Turn the basket upside down. — IKEA KVISTBRO assembly

    Step 2 · manual step 1

    Turn the basket upside down.

    Set the lid aside and stand the basket on its top rim, base facing up.

  3. Step 3: Stick the 4 felt pads onto the ring of the base. — IKEA KVISTBRO assembly

    Step 3 · manual step 1

    Stick the 4 felt pads onto the ring of the base.

    Peel each pad off the sheet and space the pads evenly around the ring.

  4. Step 4: Each pad sits on the outer ring of the base. — IKEA KVISTBRO assembly

    Step 4 · manual step 1

    Each pad sits on the outer ring of the base.

    Press it firmly onto the wire, as in the manual’s close-up.

  5. Step 5: Turn the basket the right way up. — IKEA KVISTBRO assembly

    Step 5 · manual step 2

    Turn the basket the right way up.

    It now stands on the 4 felt pads.

  6. Step 6: Place the lid on top. — IKEA KVISTBRO assembly

    Step 6 · manual step 2

    Place the lid on top.

    It rests on the top rim of the basket — lift it off to reach the storage inside.

Tips & safety

  • Delicate table: maximum load 10 kg (22 lb). Do not place heavy objects on it (manual p. 2).
  • Do not sit on the table. The wire basket is not made to carry a person (manual p. 2).
  • The lid is not fixed. Lift it by the finger slot to use the basket for storage.
