Ikea kitchen basically got two series
Elcheapo one is the below 2k for a 8ft kitchen, top and bottom materials. then add 600 installation or just DIY.
This is more cost effective for rental condemnation.

The metod one for 8ft if you go all out fullspec with nice sink and all the fancier soft close hinges, fancier drawer front without handles, will cost about 5-6k on materials.

Thanks ya

2k is damn cheap.. maybe will go for that, then add quartz as top.

The below 2k that u mention, is already include sink n tap n drawers?

Yes they actually come with a top and sink as well for the below 2k series
- the elcheapo series, sink also elcheapo looking but it will functionally, it will work just fine la.

but bear in mind elcheapo series materials will DEFINITELY cut corners lah like material thickness of the cabinet chassis and shelves
- the standard series metod one also configurable to order without worktop. however base price cannot fight the elcheapo series la. u can also get as cheap as 20-30 for the drawer fronts for metod. Fancier door >100 ea.

- the elcheapo one also got preset components like one shelf. or one bottom unit.

form vs function laugh.gif

full spec 8ft with lighting (400, can minus off) and fancy 1k sink and upgraded 229 tap and everything drawer on the bottom (except part under sink) is 6.1k+
