It's made of compressed sawdust and honeycomb newspaper, with a pleasant plastic veneer that holds everything together. The screws are all very soft and strip out easily, the ones with Philips heads are actually Pozidriv but they never include a Pozidriv driver so those will strip too. The blade is some chickenshit low-end material made from recycled soup cans that bends and flexes all the time, the edge is barely honed.

If you do get a good model, IKEA will discontinue it.

The newspaper is The Wall Street Journal and all the allegedly recycled content is virgin, just the lowest grade possible.
