I asked some months ago about kitchens in general and had some good advice. I had a Wickes quotation for wood frame doors painted of £12,000 including appliances. After advice I looked up DIY kitchens and yes they appeared to be a great deal cheaper. However, we would have to drive to Yorkshire and that is a heck of a way to see the quality and they won’t do the order in the showroom. So I looked at Ikea. The same kitchen layout that I had with Wickes, I drew it myself with same units only slight difference being 2 40cm wide larders cupboards instead of the full 80cm unit in Wickes. But at almost £6,000 less including appliances I really do think we will take the plunge. However, everyone seems to have story about what they heard happened to a friend of a friend of a friend, so I am asking any Ikea Kitchen customers to give me their opinion on the service and quality plus any follow up customer service they experienced. They are flat pack unlike Wickes and we will erect ourselves, we’ve built kitchens before and ikea tend to be very good at making units fit snuggly together but we will have the carpenter install. Anyone with Ikea have a comment? Tks
