Joshua, 



Did the contractors redo the entire kitchen or only install the Ikea items? 



Please please send  me the contractors name. 





Thank you!

We just redid our kitchen last fall and used Ikea for just about everything -- 
cabinets, countertops, sink some of the appliances. We had it done by 
contractors so I can't speak to how easy or difficult it was to install but 
close to a year later now we are still very pleased with how it looks and 
works.  The contractors we work with swear by Ikea, and we loved them -- I 
would be happy to give you their contact info.

I installed ikea cabinets in my wife's house before we were married.   It
was pretty straightforward, didn't require too much skill, and it was *a
lot* cheaper than any of the other options.  The only difficult part was
making rectangular cabinets fit into a space where neither the walls nor the
floor were exactly square.  Lots of shims and caulk.

[Chat] Ikea kitchens

2011-07-07 Thread macnmum
Christina:  You can get lots of great info on Ikea kitchens on this site:

http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/kitchbath/

Many folks have done Ikea kitchens top to bottom, but many have also used
Ikea parts:  Cabinet carcasses, with doors and drawers purchased elsewhere
(Scherr's is a popular supplier) ; sinks; butcherblock countertops, etc.
There's even a recent thread about how to use Ikea to get a value-priced
high quality kitchen.

The search function on the forum isn't the best.  You can try using it to
locate relevant threads , but also google  Ikea kitchen gardenweb

Christine,

If you're open to options other than IKEA, we recommend
Courtyard Kitchens:

http://www.courtyardkitchensofhampstead.com/  .

They did a great job with our kitchen.
