Hello everyone 🙂 I’m quite new here and happy to have finally found a forum that seems to be dedicated solely to IKEA.
So, about our plans: we want to buy an IKEA kitchen (Bodbyn ivory white, METOD base units).

This is how it should look.
Here are my questions: I don’t want IKEA electrical appliances but plan to order and have them delivered, for example, from OTTO. How does that work with the dimensions? Sometimes there’s a difference of 0.4mm and so on. Can I replace all appliances with others?
The microwave and oven?
What about the ceramic cooktop?
Which front works for the dishwasher, or will the dimensions match?
I know many will shake their heads that the sink is right next to the cooktop, but that’s what I’m used to, and I don’t want to reduce the large workspace on the long L side.
Which companies do you recommend for a kitchen like this?
If you have any other tips for me, please let me know.
Otherwise, many thanks in advance 🙂
Best regards,
Tina

IKEA-Experte2 Mar 2016 17:31I need a self-cleaning (pyrolytic) oven so it doesn’t have to be scrubbed, telescopic runners, an induction cooktop with direct power control for each cooking zone, and no roasting zone... Take a look around first to see what functions are available.

^ this is how it should look.
Here are my questions: I don’t want IKEA appliances but plan to order and have them delivered from, for example, OTTO. How does this work with the dimensions? Sometimes it’s off by 0.4 mm (0.02 inches) and so on. Can I replace everything with other appliances?
The microwave and oven?
The ceramic hob?
Which front works for the dishwasher, or will the measurements fit?
I know many will shake their heads about the sink being right next to the hob, but that’s how I’m used to it and I don’t want to reduce the large countertop space on the long L side.
Which brands would you recommend for a kitchen like this?
If you have any other tips for me, please let me know.
Otherwise, thanks in advance 🙂

TinaI wanted to ask again... does anyone have BEKO appliances installed?
If yes, which ones would you recommend that would also fit this kitchen? Fully integrated.
