IKEA recommend that all flat pack furniture fittings are tightened

Howden's units are more stable because they are glued and dowelled
rather than using cams and pins.



That would be enough to persuade me to glue all joints while assembling
IKEA units, which is what I do in any case.


I glue all flat pack furniture that I buy. It's surprising how little glue
you need to make it much more stable.
