Great top for drawer unit but bad adhesive stickerI'd been eyeing these for my drawer units and finally got them in the elfa sale. I was worried they would appear plasticky but they actually don't- they are heavy and great quality. My problem is with the installation. The product comes with tiny double sided stickers to hold it in place since it simply sits on top of the frame. A) it was near impossible to remove the bottom cover from the sticker, to the point where I only used two instead of four stickers to hold the top in place because the cover just would not come off (even after ruining my nails trying to pry it out). B) I'm not sure what happens when I need to take off the top for moving and such. I'm guessing by the quality of the stickers that they will leave marks on both the frame and the top. I would think Elfa could have come up with a better way to secure these tops that doesn't involve cheap stickers. For example why can't there be a groove on the underside that fits inside the frame? It would then be easy to lift them up when needed.

Extra goodness --Adding a top to your drawers makes an extra surface for storage and adds strength to your assemblage. Although not necessary, it's a good choice.
The driftwood color works especially well with the platinum elfa drawer frame. It is a nice neutral, doesn't show dirt or scratches and a good choice if your drawer frame will be out in the open.
When you assemble this top to your frame make sure you have it lined up before setting it in place -- the double sticky tape is meant to STICK FOREVER and if it isn't lined up you will just have to live with it! :)

It Completes the LookWhile I don't think it's truly necessary to have this (as some items you may want to just have in a basket you don't have to pull out), I like that it completes the look. It also makes it easier for me to put things on top (such as the Linen Drop-Front Shirt and Linen Drop-Front Shoe Boxes).

My Closet Looks Gorgeous with this addition!I purchased four melamine tops to go with the runner frame and mesh drawers to organize and hold my purse collection. This was the best investment I could have made. I was encouraged to clean out and downsize the amount of handbags I have, rediscovering purses that I'd forgotten I had. Love this!

Perfect for meThe mesh drawers and driftwood top look great in my bedroom. The single depth top drawer holds small items and the wide double depth lower drawers are perfect for folded knit tops. I plan to keep out of season tops in the bottom and switch them to the upper drawer when the seasons change.

Customer service terrific!We had a great experience at our local Container Store. The associates were extremely helpful and went out of their way to assist me. They even put together the units I bought. Thanks so much to the Container Store. The unit is as expected. It performs and looks good. It is an assembled product, so within that genre, I think it is one of the best looking products out there.

A little tricky to attachI've now assembled several of these drawer units, so I have the hang of it when it comes to putting these tops on. But it was frustrating at first. They are held on by double-sided sticky (VERY STICKY) squares. If you don't have it lined up perfectly with the drawer unit and it touches one the squares, it's adheres instantly. Best to have two people, and take your time.
Also, it would be nice if they offered the top in the walnut to match the elfa Decor trim for the closets. I used two of these drawer units as an island/folding surface in my master closet. Everything has the walnut trim -- but not this unit. I had to go elsewhere to get something to match in that room.

Storage everywhereI live and work in a 1-room studio, and decided to purchase Elfa shelving to help increase the storage in my space. Elfa is sturdy and very modular, so it fits in every space. In this case, I purchased the driftwood color tops to match my front door. All around good quality.

Elfa metal mesh stacksI have purchased 3 sets of Elfa mesh drawers to replace plastic hobby drawers that were broken in my move. They are sturdy but easy to construct. I love the fact that you can have different size drawers in the same unit. Also, the drawers glide in and out very easily.

Good buyLast year I brought an elfa unit that contained slides for hanging files. I brought a file cabinet recently and no longer need the runners for the files. What I needed was an additional drawer and a top to put on my elfa unit that would stay in place, be sturdy enough upon which to write, inexpensive and blended in well with my office decor. I looked into a glass top, but that was way more than the budgeted amount I had in my mind. The Container store came to rescue with the Driftwood Melamine Top. It is part of the elfa system and it fit all of the above stated needs perfectly. I'm happy....

Organized and Clean!I placed this just outside the door in the garage to hold shoes. Three boys can track in a lot of dirt so I have them take their shoes off before they enter the house. I added casters so I can easily roll the unit and sweep underneath.
Finally, no more tripping over shoes and screaming... each of us has our own drawer. Mommy is happy!

AwesomeThese tops are great. They add some style to an otherwise purely functional item. So glad I got them.
It's a smooth transition from top to side. I don't find the edges sharp, but they aren't curved either.

What are the white containers that fit so perfectly in these drawers?
The above featured review shows two pictures of Elfa drawers with white containers placed 4 across that appear to fit perfectly in the drawer. I'm looking for something exactly like that, as I'll be storing lots of Lego bricks and we sort them carefully. The clear plastic Elfa inserts won't work as we need to be able to remove each bin individually.
What are the containers, please? I feel as if I've seen them at the Container Store but don't know where.
Asked by: Pheebers
The drawer dividers you refer to are our now obsolete White Divided elfa Drawer Trays. The white version has been replaced by our Clear Divided elfa Drawer Trays (shown below). Other individual bins you can consider are also shown below.
