I have a complete apprehension to any IKEA product that involves wood.
You know those thick tables and shelves, table legs etc? 3mm hardboard with a hexagonal cardboard filling.
All the tables, shelves etc are in one way or form that material. Supposedly to make it greener, yet it is the exact opposite of green. The only use is to burn it when discarded.
It's useless to recycle, and we have a hard time dealing with those products which end up in the wood piles that we do recycle here, load it on trucks to turn into particle board. That's at least worth a few cycles of reuse.
IMHO, remove the countertop, buy a solid piece of wood in lieu of.
