Bought 2 billy bookcases for £20 each in 1991, and moved them a couple of dozen times, including moving country twice. Last month I disassembled them and used the pieces to make wall shelves in the pantry of the house I bought 2 years ago. That’s some longevity.
I have two MALM dressers with probably 2 cracked beams each. That’s after I was able to get that part replaced on both, so technically it has happened 6 times.
Almost everything in my apartment is from ikea, the only thing that isn’t holding very well is the sofa and that was my fault, we changed orientation 4 times and some of the screw holes got to big.
And even then the sofa is still good, is just kinda crooked if you now where to look

Let me guess, her drawer was too full and as she opened/closed it, the clothes broke a crossbeam in half?

I think that’s every Malm set of drawers in existence. Mine has the same issue.
But in my case it’s because I sat in the draw as a kid.
