NEXUS BROWN BLACK IS NOT DISCONTINUED

According to my source (an official source inside IKEA Corporate who is in the position to know), Nexus Brown Black WILL RETURN in Week 45 - the first week in November. It is not discontinued, just delayed at this point. I'll endeavor to keep you informed as more information develops.

Please keep in mind that though your local IKEAn may be interested in helping, the information at the store level has proven unreliable at best, downright inaccurate and misleading in the worst situations. It's difficult I know, but try not to buy into the rumors! Sit tight and we'll let you know if things change.

You beat me to it. I was just about to say that my local IKEAn yesterday told me the same news.

I also asked why the Malm black brown came back faster. He said that the veneer quality for kitchens has to adhere to a higher standard (see my new 25 Year Warrantee thread in Why IKEA?).

And that, friends, is why IKEAfans.com is your go-to source for all info IKEA.
Thank you Susan!

Hi Garden of Darwin! Thanks for the info...do you know why it is not in the 2008 catalog? I just looked at it online and they have a nexus yellow brown but no nexus black brown Did they just decide to exclude it from the 2008 catalog? Thanks

Ahem, to chime in on this....I've been attempting to order pieces of Nexus BB for the past two days for our store display with no luck. Doesn't mean Nov. 5th is out of the question for a start daye, but don't be too surprised. I'll let you know when I know more.

I've been told that orders should be possible starting Nov.5/07 - sure hope it's true.

Not a problem. This is a great way to disseminate information directly to those who ask for it. But I digest. Next week is still on. I've got the product I need for display ordered, and more importantly I've got a memo from our supply staff that indicated it's still on like Donkey Kong. Nexus begins anew next week. This is fresh news as of 11-01. I'll let you know if anything else happens.
