Hello everyone,
I am planning to assemble an Ikea Hemnes furniture piece in the next few days and want to prepare as best as possible regarding the tools needed. Since I already know that the furniture is quite extensive and uses various types of screws, I am particularly interested in which tools are helpful when assembling Ikea HEMNES.
I would like to know if, besides the standard Allen key, other tools are often useful, such as different types of screwdrivers, possibly a cordless drill/driver, or special aids for stability or saving time.
Does anyone have experience with what is really necessary or helpful to assemble the furniture efficiently and safely? Thanks in advance!

Thank you for the precise contributions and tips so far. The advice about using a cordless drill with adjustable torque settings sounds very helpful, especially to reduce the risk of overtightening screws or damaging the wood.
Can anyone provide additional tips on how to best identify and prepare the different types of screws? Ikea usually includes instructions, but I’m concerned that some screws or connections may require different tools or special care.
Are there common pitfalls related to tools that one should watch out for early on to make the assembly process as efficient and safe as possible?
