Hello everyone,

We are currently trying, without success, to creatively use the great new planning options for Metod. For this, we are using the Danish online planner, but unfortunately, it is not possible for us to stack base cabinets on top of each other or to place Tutemo cubes on base cabinets (or in combined tall cabinets). At least the latter is something you can see everywhere in the catalogs or at IKEA Odense.

Does anyone have an idea how this could be done? Or is it really a missing feature?

Best regards,

I experimented a bit with the planner. Without knowledge of Danish, it became too tedious for me.
TUTEMO could be placed on the base cabinet after the countertop was removed.
Stacking base cabinets is not possible. The cabinet would then be open at the top.
What works is, at a height of 200 cm (79 inches), an 80 cm (31.5 inches) base cabinet, a TUTEMO, and two METOD cabinets above. Or all cabinets only 37 cm (15 inches) deep, with wall cabinets above the TUTEMO.

Hello IKEA expert,

thank you for your effort.

We were at IKEA yesterday for something else and actually found a knowledgeable guy in the kitchen department. When using the planner in 2D view and then switching to the side view with the "U-turn" button, you can move cabinets in any direction – including upwards – using the arrow keys. Good tip!

We are stacking a 140cm (55 inches) tall tall cabinet on two base cabinets, with TUTEMO next to it.

Best regards,
