ᐅ Feedback on the Ikea Kitchen

Created on: 10 Nov 2015 22:28

Hello everyone,
things are moving forward for us now. After visiting quite a few kitchen outlets in the past, we finally decided on IKEA. Mainly because it’s affordable – secondly, because the kitchen salespeople were almost driving me crazy in the end (a $1000 discount because the sun is shining…). IKEA doesn’t offer any consultation at all… not great either, but still better than that.
We were somewhat fixed on the layout because of the windows… now we are even more set because of the utility connections… The screed is already in place.
The cabinet fronts are Hyttan and Bodbyn – we will buy the appliances separately.
We thought the waste bin should be a pull-out unit under the sink.
A quick note about the tall cabinet row (since it’s not that visible) on the left side of the plan:
60cm (24 inches) cabinet, oven, 60cm (24 inches) cabinet, refrigerator, small freezer.

We would love to hear your opinion. Are there any things we absolutely should change? Since neither of us really has a sense for design, we would appreciate any tips or comments on that as well.
Thanks and best regards

Here is the system layout again:

Modern kitchen with wooden fronts, cooking island, oven column, and two windows.

Kitchen with light wooden cabinets, built-in oven, stove, kitchen island, and gray tiles

Modern kitchen unit with white drawers, wooden countertop, cooktop, extractor hood, windows

Kitchen with wooden panels, sink, cooktop, white cabinets, and window with a green view.

What do you think about the idea of planning 4 tall cabinets and using a tambour cabinet in the corner instead of two tall cabinets? Otherwise, we are now approaching the final stages of the planning.

If you need the retaining wall—and you always do—I would definitely go for it. I would then either enclose the tall cabinets with drywall or highlight them with a side panel. I think that looks much more harmonious!

I would advise against that. Two tall cabinets, as already planned, and two shutter cabinets would be better. It creates a more open feel.

The furniture store no longer wanted to negotiate. €10,800 (approximately $11,650) for the Nolte kitchen seems to be the final price. The Systemat kitchen, with identical built-in appliances and layout, is priced at €11,200 (approximately $12,100).

I think the price is reasonable.
