Hello everyone, I am about to start a project to properly reinforce some of my IKEA Malm dressers to make them more stable and reduce wear on the floor covering underneath. My question is: What is the best way to reinforce the Malm dressers to ensure even load distribution while also preventing potential moisture absorption? I would also like to know if you prefer certain materials or techniques and which mistakes should definitely be avoided. I look forward to your tips and experiences!

As a supplement, I would like to add: The construction of Malm dressers is not solid wood, so it is advisable not to leave any of the corners or sides without support. The support should be placed under each leg to prevent stress on the material. Additionally, it is useful to thoroughly clean the floor before adding the support to remove dust or small stones that can cause imbalance. Finally, a tip: when handling self-adhesive pads, make sure the surface is grease-free and dry to ensure long-lasting adhesion.
