Recently have a walk in Ikea, very love their kitchen design. Always heard people say don't ever buy Ikea cabinet due to cheap quality and yet expensive. Is that true?

If so, any recommended contractor or kitchen cabinet expert able to finish like Ikea design and with cheaper price?

got one question here... if wanna do a 5-foot run base unit... can ah? does kc ppl willing to do such small jobs? btw, what's the current pricing for base unit per foot run, abs board?

I loved Ikea designs too until a lot of cabinet makers and contractors assured me that their quality is not good. My contractor cum cabinet maker did my kitchen cabinet and it ended up as nightmare. It looks nice but bad quality and I highly doubt he'll let me claim any warranty later even though he says he'll come and repair for free within a year. My kitchen cost me 11.5K while Ikea quote is about 14K, both with solid surface but Ikea comes with the accessories and warranty. Also the Ikea price already include sink and tap. If I ever get a new house or renovate the kitchen, I will seriously consider getting Ikea. Of course let's not forget some kitchen cabinet maker that comes highly recommended here too.

You may go to their website, use their kitchen planner to draw out your plan, choose material and get the price. Then take the plan to Ikea and let them add in other charges for you. If I remember correctly the installation price is RM80 per foot run and RM160 if it's tall cabinet, usually adds up to a few hundred ringgit. Other installation charge : Sink and tap RM160, Oven RM80, Hobs and Hood RM160, Delivery RM60. Play around with the kitchen planner and you will then know how to cut the cost to get better price. Take note that Ikea won't do box up.

Now, I have one question:

My 'clever' kitchen cabinet maker did not leave a space at the side, under the gas hob. Can I put the gas tank direct below the hob? Cause last time when I got quote from other KC makers, they all said it's dangerous.

Thanks ...for your sincere advise

if it catches fire.. then it's very dangerous cos the path to the gas tank is vry close.. may i suggest u putted a gas detector inside your cabinet where you place your gas tank.. so when something is wrong.. u'd want to know it first

wow, this one looks very elegant but I doubt on its durability

I thought most people just put the gas tank in the space beneath the hob? Where else would you put it?

Get industrial gas , locate it outside the kitchen, like my company canteen ah?

All put under the hob. Is not a problem. Unless your hod transfer heat under.

Can I opt for smaller tank instead?

So far all the KC maker suggested I put beneath the beside of the hob.

Lol... that will ruin all the money I spent for the kitchen..

How do I test whether it transfer heat down there? Just open the cabinet to see it's hot or not after cooking?

Open you will know if its hot or not. So far I been using Rinnai hod is ok. And do remember heat go up, not go down.
