IKEA Kitchen Cabinets
Has anyone redone their kitchen with IKEA cabinets…they look amazing but do they hold up well. I dont want to spend a fortune on my kitchen…but i want good quality and some contemporary designs. thanks!

I have Ikea cabinets on my kitchen for about 3 years. We moved twice and it didn’t cause any harm to them. They still look perfect. But be careful, sometimes people have some problems with Ikea furniture http://ikea.pissedconsumer.com/
10 years and counting — in our tenant’s apt. Not a mark on them. Can’t say the same for our custom cabinets. We chose a very simple birch wood door (can’t remember the name but they still sell it) with almost no detail. I think it helps to have a good GC install them.
I have had more than a few clients go that route and they have not complained.

I’ve had the same experience as timber – 25 years. One cabinet door had to be replaced.
I have had IKEA cabinets in a rental apartment for at least 25 years and they still look great!
I love my ikea kitchens. I second gluing everything together. I also reinforced a few parts with 3/4″ plywood–the island and a counter that ended in a dishwasher.
We had our Ikea kitchen installed in 2006 and we still love it. It still looks great and has held up exceptionally well. If it’s competently installed (we specifically chose a contractor who had installed many Ikea kitchens) and well designed (saving money on the cabinets gives you some extra budget room to add some nice non-Ikea touches), you and anyone who looks at it will think you spent twice as much on your kitchen than you actually did.
