Here it is! Luann
You can put the 9 cubies on either side. I would use the Ikea table top for the top.

I think KALLAX is just the new name for the EXPEDIT series. I was just there a couple weeks ago and it appeared to me that they have KALLAX in all the same configurations that EXPEDIT had. I couldn't really see much difference (they still had some EXPEDIT pieces mixed in with their KALLAX display) so I'm not sure if they *just* renamed the series or if they made (or plan to make) more changes than that.

Just an IKEA fan!

I don't think they make all the accessories for the Kallax like they did the Expedit though. My friend was at Ikea on Sunday and said she could tell the Kallax was thinner.
