Hello everyone,

I recently bought a KALLAX shelving unit and noticed during assembly that some of the shelves were slightly warped. The distortion isn’t extreme, but it is definitely noticeable and visible, which concerns me regarding stability and appearance. My question is: Should I return the shelving unit or the shelves, or is this slight warping common for KALLAX furniture and does it settle with use? Are there any experiences about when this is a valid reason for return and how IKEA usually handles such cases? Thanks for your opinions and advice!

Final update: I installed the new shelf board today, and this time without any warping. I believe it was truly an isolated case.

Thanks again to everyone who offered tips and advice here. This forum is really valuable!
