I miss my IKEA kitchen. We moved to a newly constructed house with expensive "upgraded" Century cabinets. They don't function anywhere near as good as our IKEA. You're right about missing the soft close drawers that can hold 100+ lbs. The finish of the IKEA cabinets was MUCH tougher. After 7 years, 3 dogs and 2 kids, it only had 2 tiny dings. We've only been in our new house a year and I can't believe how many nicks and scratches these premium cabinets have! The farm sink was well worth the under $250! I did prefer the previous style of cabinet frames from IKEA. But, I'd do it again and recommend to anyone.

I love my farmhouse sink so much more than my old divided sink. I can now fit all of my big items in it and not get water everywhere cleaning up my canning pots. I use to have to clean them in my bathroom tub and hated it. I also put all drawers on the bottom. It is very easy to get to everything. I'm a lot older than you and bending over and trying to get things off the bottom shelves of standard cabinets was a pain in the back and the knees. By the way, your kitchen looks beautiful and every hard working mom needs a hard working kitchen. God bless & keep growing

We planned and bought a new IKEA high gloss kitchen in May and have now returned for the installation. There is still a lot of painting, deep washing and scrubbing, electrical installation and final declutterring to be done, but we will finally be able to end this chapter in our lives. I have worked as hard as humanly possible in the last months to afford all its costs, and I don’t feel human. I need time to relax and enjoy engaging my mind and imagination again.

Great video! I'm so excited to use our new Ikea kitchen in our new owner built home. Ikea pricing was better and we were able to get our kitchen faster than any other option right now due to all of the delays that the construction industry is experiencing. Tip: we hired their 3rd party installer and SOOO glad we did. I was also a little worried about the longevity since we got quartz countertops, but the installers said that some customers use marble countertops and the Ikea cabinets last....put my mind at ease. Could you share about your white countertops? We also have white and I think I might turn into the monster mom about keeping them clean, lol.

Honestly, the counters are so easy to care for! We just use a non toxic cleaner and try not to set hot stuff on to. We wipe up after meals and activities on the counters. And the one thing we messed up with was setting a rusted pot on the counter and getting that stain out was tough.

Our first 2 kitchens were ikea. 3rd house we went a different route, due to some pressure from contractor(my step dad😆). Honestly, our first to kitchens were better by miles. We are now in the process of a remodel of our latest home and we are back to IKEA 100%. They have a 25 yr warranty on them and are just as solid if not more solid of base cabinets as our last and more expensive kitchen cabinets. If one was to be able to go solid wood then maybe that would be better. But for us that is a waste of money.

Better quality and price of Lowes or home depot too. Did 4 rooms of cabinets. Kitchen, 2 baths and laundry. I did have an installer and someone who put them together which was great! I got a steal of a deal. I used 2 different brands because of styles I wanted. Oh and get as many drawers they are amazing. Have 30 inch ones in kitchen and love them so much. Way more practical and prettier than just cabinets. I have a few lower cabinets in places where needed. But mostly drawers. Best of luck!!!

Hi - thanks for this - I am designing a kitchen - super small and super minimalist - for our son who doesn't cook and I am leaning towards Ikea - but when I went and had my free design meeting I felt like I was having a "do you want fries with that" moment so came away without buying. But given your review I am rethinking - can I ask what size the drawers you got are please - both the little ones next to the kitchen and the big one too. Also can you tell me where you got the gorgeous black shelving?

They are FAR higher quality than anything the other big box stores sell for anything like the price. And the best part is that you can easily change things up. A few months ago I added one of the hidden drawers to my six year old kitchen. $50 worth of parts and 30 minutes of time, and I have a new spice drawer.
