But we have three of the Expedit shelves (we use them for books and yarn stash, mostly) and they're remarkably sturdy for IKEA stuff. They did a pretty good job on the structural integrity front, and the result of their hollow construction is that they're also light enough to move reasonably easily by yourself. Going back to your original statement: they do use real wood in quite a few of their products. Unfortunately, it's usually pine, and not particularly good pine at that. We have a chest of drawers where I reattached the drawer faceplate with a number of 3" deck screws after the third time I had to return it because their own fasteners were stripping out of the front. - Dave
