ᐅ Do Ikea Utrusta inserts fit into a Faktum kitchen?

Hello, we have taken over a used IKEA Faktum kitchen and want to install some 50cm (20 inches) and 30cm (12 inches) wire baskets (formerly Rationell). These are hard to find – does anyone know where to get them? We also need a set of 16cm (6 inches) legs.

Alternatively, do the Utrusta inserts fit into the Faktum base cabinets?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,

Ikeaner has already given a short and clear answer.

With Metod, you won’t find 30cm (12 inch) or 50cm (20 inch) wire baskets because they simply don’t exist. Metod is a modular system based on a 20cm (8 inch) grid. You can reorder parts in the Ikea online store. Click on Kitchen and scroll down a bit, where it says Faktum reorder.

And again, from me: no, Metod does not fit into Faktum, even when we’re talking about 20, 40, or 60cm (8, 16, or 24 inch).

Or buy used wire baskets. However, they were never available in 30cm (12 inches) width.

Thanks for your replies, even though it’s a bit disappointing.

There are other suppliers that offer such baskets. Alternatively, I could install shelves and use matching plastic baskets that I can take out.

I find this much more practical, especially for the narrow cabinets, rather than having to rummage around at the back.

Hello,
Currently, the Utrusta wire baskets fit into Faktum. You just need to leave out the plastic rails, and you can use the old baskets. I installed some yesterday.

Best regards
