Guys, could you help me on this one? I am trying to un-assemble my wardrobe…?

[Anonymous]

I’m am trying to unscrew the parts but it seems like which ever way I turn the screws they block. Is that common for a wardrobe, does mean I cannot un-assemble it 😰?

thank you 😊

Good news everyone, my neighbor has managed to destroy my wardrobe.

You may have encountered planned obsolescence if you're dealing with Ikea-grade stuff. They probably want you to break it by accident and buy a new one. Is it nice enough to bother taking it apart or should you just knock it to bits with a hammer and throw it out?

[Asker]

Thanks!! Yeah I think I’ll have to ask someone to help break it down…

[ArtemisSilver]

Nah just buy a sledgehammer. Think of it as cheap therapy lol

[ArtemisSilver]

Glad you had a happy ending. I recently took out an unwanted desk with a jigsaw

[Asker]

Hahaha thanks
Nice job!

Typically turn the bolt or screw to the left loosens the bolt or screw

Assuming you want this assembled in this lifetime, just find someone to do it for you.

Don't be a racist. Lots of women are handy with tools. lol
I just don't understand the directions in the box. What the fuck is a grommet? Is there even such a thing, or is China just fucking with us? Just thinking about grommets makes me shiver. Do they come in the box, or are they lurking under the couch?

I saw a movie about Grommets, and you can't feed them after midnight.

I do need a man lol I mean it probably needs to be broken down with a hammer I’m not gonna do that myself or asks a woman to do that 😆

It's called a joke.

Find a fella to help you. I'm giving my brother and his family a bunch of Google Home Minis.
They're kind of tricky to set up, so I'm going to make my nephew do it. While he's working on that, my brother and I will be eating cheese and crackers, and sipping eggnog with rum.

There's more than one way to skin a cat.

@Date_a_Snob you’re so nice thank you 😘

Some furniture has like locks for the screws that are inserted from the side

[Asker]

Mmh yeah that must be the reason

[Agape93]

Could be an insert that prevents it. I had a shitty idea dresser that had em. Not sure how to check or remove em, I resorted to using a hammer to dismantle it

[Astarlessnightsky]

Ikea has some weird mechanics, its more like a hooked disc.

You turn it all the way and the counterpart can slide out of it.

If its an ikea furniture take a look online, you find the manuals for assembly and you will see how its done.

May be not possible to do what you are trying

[Fleet7635]

Be a lot easier to help if you show a picture of the time in question

Lefty loosey righty tighty

[Asker]

But even turning to the left it blocks… 😞
