Hello IKEA fans,
I ordered a kitchen from IKEA for the first time and also had a professional measurement done because all the walls are uneven. Additionally, I ordered a custom countertop from IKEA.
This weekend, I realized that the IKEA custom countertop does not fit. I expected a custom countertop to arrive ready for proper installation without any adjustments. Of course, I understand that I need to drill the holes for the sink and the cooktop myself, which is not the problem. The main issue is that the entire countertop dimensions do not match at all.
Am I correct in thinking that custom countertops should arrive accurately cut to size, or is it normal that I have to modify the countertop myself?
I have emailed IKEA because it’s impossible to get through by phone. I’m still waiting for a response and thought I’d ask you here to ease my mind.
