What's with this photo on the IKEA USA site? I've looked and looked and I don't think they actually have the toe kick drawers openly, nay, brazenly displayed here!

Whaddayathink? Do they post photos just to test search hits???

Or do I have reason to celebrate?

No, you have reason to moan and complain. They have the picture, yes. Do they have the product? No. Or rather should I say do we North Americans have the product? No. Apparently it used to be carried here, but it is now only available in Europe. There's a whole thread around here about what they have "over the pond" as opposed to what we have. Apparently the grass is always greener. :?

Those toekicks look much taller than the usual US style. That's probably what makes the drawers possible.

Of course...Lee Valley probably has something you could use to approximate this particular modification....
