Re: Your experience of IKEA kitchens?

Wow, excellent discussion here about IKEA kitchens..!

I'm thinking about ripping my kitchen out one day and installing a new one as well. I bought my place about 6 years ago (building was already 16 years old), the kitchen cupboards are all original but sellers put in all new appliances and (granite) countertops for the sale. I've got another 4 years on the mortgage and I'm thinking about selling so I'm obviously not looking to put in a kitchen that's going to last me the next 20+ years. IKEA sounds like it might just be the answer for me, will have to have a closer look at their stuff.

thanks..
If the kitchen is 16 years old (original) the cabinets may be of good quaility. If the granite work tops are still good, you wouldn't want the expense of changing those either.
I would consider just looking at buying new doors maybe if it is an update for cosmetics.
You won't recover the money when selling if you are changing the kitchen to sell. the new owner might not even like the units you have put in.
