Heads up for those looking for Detolf alternatives

[unexpectedpanda]

So the Ikea Detolf recently dropped to AU$129. Better, but still a complete rip off compared to the US$64.99 price in the States.

On Saturday, 23 August, Aldi is offering its Sohl Furniture Glass Cabinet. It's next to identical, except comes with a lockable door and two keys for $99.99.

Dimensions: 42.5 (W) x 36.5 (D) x 161 (H) cm, 40kg.

Detolf: 43 (W) x 37 (D) x 163 (H) cm, 40.7kg.

Can't speak for the quality, but can't see how it'd be any worse than the Detolf.

Great.....if you have an Aldi in your state. though Ikea has been known to sell their Detolfs for $99 also as that's what I paid for 4 of them.

Were they on special, or did you wrangle a bargain as you bought four?

They look quite nice don't they? Is that silver trim around the edges standard or an addition?

[Jilm101]

that's how they come, i believe detolfs don't have edging but it does give a nice place to hide lighting

Drats and me without a car grrrr. 40 kg, hmmmm this would take me 2 trips I guess just to buy 2... if I'm lucky to grab one. Seems there's a lot of people who's gonna buy this and stocks are usually limited per store. hand truck it is then....

Looks like they changed the design to be closer to the Detolf!

Saw it in the catalogue, looks really good. Hoping to get one.

I have two of these, the quality is nowhere near the Deltof and looks cheap up close but it does the job well. I'd argue the Deltof is better value for money however an extra $30 over multiple cabinets adds up to quite a bit of savings.

I just wish there was the ability to get more of the fixings so we can put in extra shelves.

I'm glad they've come back round again and hope they do so again next year as I may pick some up for my new place.
