We were at Ikea yesterday.
We decided on the Ikea Bror there. They are super stable and also modularly buildable (yes, not as flexible as the Ivar) but Ivar was already shakier than Bror and can withstand less (according to Ikea lower load capacity).
The connection on the Bror is only a plug connection and not a clamp connection; that should also be changeable without problems.
We will align the shelves with the bottom to the Ikea boxes so that they fit perfectly in the different sizes and then you don’t change the shelves anymore.
I just don’t know where you found the official load capacity at Ikea?
I can’t find it, regardless if for IVAR or BROR.
