    Tips in order:
    1) ikea cabinets provide great value and good quality
    2) go minimalist
    3) once you’ve set your plan, don’t change it
    4) have materials and appliances on site so you know dimensions, install instructions, and little details that can screw things up later
    5) selection process (get your most expensive stuff first where you can find the best deal -> counters, cabinet faces, flooring, tile, paint)
    6) get rid of upper cabinets (cost more)
    7) appliances - don’t get advanced fridge with ice maker and screens etc. Invest in a good stove instead.

    Not sure how much experience you have in humid climates, but in Florida, NJ and Alabama, Ive found that the particleboard stuff disintegrates within a few years and you find yourself needing to install new cabinets, such that the solid stuff is worth the extra upfron cost if you’re gonna live in a place more than 5-7 years.

This price point enabled me to splurge on my appliances and countertops. I even got a small drink fridge. Your ikea a-z videos are what helped my decisions on my kitchen. Thank you!

    I get so many more ideas and thought processes of how to go about my DIYs watching and listening to all your videos..I have downsized to a mobile home, 1987 Sterling in 2012, and have been rehabbing it using a lot of recycled materials, narrow 5 pane glass doors that I built a 4X8 X2 pantry, as I hate upper cabinets with a vengeance! This allowed me to have more great viewing windows over the sink. And all my daily stuff is in one place with easy access and visual seeing where items are. My lower cabinets are all deep heavy duty pan drawers with an upper interior inner utensil drawer. I priced out custom cabinets and am lucky to have Amish cabinet makers in my area, which were way less then even the big box stores, and I could have my own dimensions to boot. I then “pulled” my cabinets out to 29” and the sink cabinet to 32”, so I gained so much more counter depth and more space in sink base in side for water filter etc. and nixed the silly “wood cover” on the sink base and have full ht doors. You wont believe how much less bending down to “clear” that area when using a trash and compost container!. Had all doors and drawer fronts made so you barely see the face reveal making them look like expensive inset cabinetry.Lastly , my counter tops are made from 2 old slate pool tables, FREE, that I had local stone company cut and fit my cabinets, a soak of food grade mineral oil and they are good to go. Know this is long, but I like you just plan plan plan and have my plan of attack all figured out to have very few glitches. Thanks for your videos Mate!

By now yes some fronts chipped as well as some surfaces are not in best shape... but come on... do you want to live with the same kitchen for the rest of your life? Bought this house 5 years ago. And now I'm so exited to change everything. Bringing fresh breath to this house.

    While Ikea may not be down the road for all, if you make accurate measurements and use their online kitchen planner tool, you will not have any mistakes to deal with. Their planner tool works very well and will save you from making a mistake in design and cabinet selection. Use their planner, it makes a purchase list for you. Order. Done.

      Yeah also more stores (Lowes, Home Depot, Menards) are starting to carry standard cabinetry and they have similar design software. I was doing a simple cabinet and went with Lowes. Also you can get fronts for IKEA cabinets from other places which is cool because their fronts can be a bit boring sometimes

    • @letlive8014
      @letlive8014 4 года назад

      Can't say I've had the experience, but note his! When its ordered and coming . . . vs. being present, there is the chance for error. With it being present, there is the template that is your 'guarantee' of the measurements. With the almost constant changes in design (and corresponding changes in location of items, i.e. faucet specs, plumbing/gas line specs) you risk being off on the online measurements. Once you've sealed the deal in specs and find out later that those specs were off, YOU are stuck. More changes, which equal to more headaches and of course, costs. His experience here is invaluable, listen up!

    Electrical and Computer Engineer here. I agree with you, all those super fancy features you see in most appliances are usually just hype, they are seldom used. In fact, how many times people just press the same buttons on the microwave and watch what happen? The reason you may answer "most of the time" is because your brain knows this seldom use case is not worth the time it takes to find out.
    Usability should always go over useless extended features, simplicity is better. Ask any computer engineer what a program should do and good ones will tell you "a good program does one and only one thing exceptionally well", a fridge should keep your stuff cool without breaking down because of a faulty sensor you forgot to clean last month. It shouldn't be ordering your yogurt at premium prices. Don't waste your money folks.

    100% agreed with you! The most important step is planning. We started our kitchen remodel last year using IKEA system and their countertop. We’re very happy with the end result. To hell with people who thinks IKEA kitchen stuffs are cheap. It held up quite well if you install it correctly, it’s durable and it has a modern look to it. I’m a DIYer, never done any kitchen remodel and IKEA cabinets were perfect and very easy to install...never regret a bit using their system. I saved some much $$$ doing this by myself. I also ditch the high cabinets and added small shelves instead.

    Here in NYC we had a horrible rodent infestation problem because of all the construction going on and neighbors who did not properly contain their garbage. The rodents gained entry through openings arounf pipes, etc and hid behind and in the cabinets and appliances. I was able to pull out the appliances but was stuck when it came to the base cabinet. I had a friend remove the base cabinet and anchor the countertop (including the faucet) to black iron poles the height of the base cabinet. We did this without disconnectong the faucet and other plumbing. I then bought rolling cabinets that fit in the space so I can have access to that area. I am by no means suggesting this as a kitchen cabinet design, but it gave me peace of mind. I will be using the majority of your suggestions when I renovate. Thank!!

    @peterlittlejohn8933 4 года назад +9

    Some great tips here for me to take note of. I'm (still) at the stage of thinking about renovating my kitchen. But some of the ideas I have decided on are.....
    1: Instead of cabinets with the usual doors & shelves, use drawers for storage. Full extension drawers give better access to items at the back and also better overall use of the cabinet space.
    2: In my present situation the back of corner unit is a plain panel on the dining side. Plus it's almost impossible to reach or find anything that's been pushed into the corner. This will be changed to a utility cabinet facing the dining side in the rear of the corner unit for better use of space from both sides.
    3: At present the pantry is a built-in cupboard with 5 evenly spaced fixed shelves with difficult access to the top self. Replacing this with a pullout pantry unit with adjustable baskets/shelves. Also a narrow pullout unit can possibly be fitted in the rear at a right angle, pulling out for storage in the laundry.
    4: Instead of the microwave taking up bench space, or on top of the fridge as it used to be, I'll fit a cupboard at bench height in the partition wall between the kitchen and lounge. The TV and stereo are on the other side. This will have the microwave at a good safe height for use and out of the way.
    I hope these ideas will help someone with their kitchen renovation. I'm even motivating myself from thinking about it, to getting it done now :-)
    I'll have to go now and measure up and get these ideas into a plan.....

    I'm grateful for your videos! Sold me on IKEA, but I can't get anything in stock for my designs. Picked a farmhouse sink but there are NO base cabinets for it... it's a little crazy-making. I keep trying to switch my plans to match what cabinets ARE available and failing! I've tried Atlanta and Charlotte stores... It's so frustrating. I'm hoping that supply issues will change and I can go with IKEA, because now I have the confidence to do much of it myself! I've even joined the Tool Library here so I don't need to own or rent the single use tools! Can't wait to use that laser level...
    In the meantime I've already done 1/2 the demo on the kitchen, which wasn't a BAD idea, it's revealed problems with the subfloor and electric which I have to address anyway. But the inability to have a finished plan due to the availability of cabinets and parts is the worst part. I'd already decided to go with a pantry and no upper cabinets, so I'm going to re-do the tired electric outlets(thanks for that idea!) and drywall and be sure I have the support there for some shelves. Let's all pray supply issues resolve in 2022. Appliances have finally started coming in, but quality seems lacking, all the reviews are so mixed with defective or shoddy workmanship.

    Thanks. I agree about no uppers, or just a couple if right for the layout. It saves money and work plus the kitchen looks more open, bigger and brighter. I did this on my last house flip. I didn't any negative feedback from buyers.
    Yeah you're right about having the sink, etc.. at the start. I'm working on a kitchen now, studs, and I'm going to go get the appliances.

    I used Ikea cabinets after watching this video. Im super happy did the ope shelving and finished with butcher block countertops . Came out awesome. For about 3500.00, literally $5000.00 less than my last kitchen and Im happier with the outcome.

    • @jjpp2216
      @jjpp2216 3 года назад +2

      Butcher block countertop is underrated. It’s eco-friendly (trees re-grow, granite does not). It’s (by far) the most comfortable to work on, as it’s warm to the touch and softer (if you drop a drinking glass on granite, it will shatter, but not so with wood). It’s easier to design with as it’s more consistent (unlike the stone that looked like a cool grey in the shop but now looks warm grey in your home). The only thing you have to watch is not putting hot pots directly in it (so use a trivet, you’ll be fine). And you’ll save a fortune.

    @wyominghome4857 2 года назад +1

    I already did most of these in designing my kitchen for a new house we're building. Absolutely right about the water dispenser and ice maker - totally unnecessary. Ditto the "smart" features that create more opportunity for things to break. I kept to the simplest, most reliable appliance models. I went with all laminate counters after three times spending thousands on granite only to chip it. I did want the upper cabinets however, and the highest quality cabinet construction, but yes you have to plan your layout carefully and order months in advance - especially now.

  • @Pearcryt

    Hi! Thank you SO much for your hard work. We have recently bought a house and working with ikea. Your kitchen is JUST WHAT I WANTED. Would you be able to share everything you used? Including the appliances, tile, ikea cabinets and etc. That would make everything so much easier and save my brain from burning! Thank you so much!

  • @flyingdutch9818
    @flyingdutch9818 3 года назад +1

    Have built dozens of ikea kitchens for clients and I agree. They are great bang for buck.
    The points I would add to this great video are (in no order):
    Those plastic adjustable feet are a weakpoint, they should be far sturdier and capable of being lifted/moved whilst on the cabinet
    Make that grey turn/grommet for the cabinet hanging rail a cross-head, not a flathead screw driver slot
    IKEA need a better anchoring system for island benches; you need to make a solid footing to secure to buT they should also have a far better anchoring system across the top of cabinets to hold a benchtop properly
    Map out your plumbing/waste pipes as you may need to use the more shallow drawers to allow space at the back-these are easily changed after

    Your best video yet, thanks !
    I second the vote for IKEA Cabinets. Have now done three kitchens with IKEA and the only added comment is that I found great value in paying IKEA (through their designated contractor) to install the cabinets for me. Worth...... Every...... Penny..... !
    Think about it, it is what those folks do all day, every day.
    Also fully support the idea of "Plan your work, Work your plan".
    Have a lot of experience with major construction projects and "Change Orders" kill your budget AND schedule every time.
    As soon as you deviate from the plan, you open up Pandora's Box. All bets are off....
    And yes, have every item On-Site before you get started.

    • @rs2352

      Whoops, forgot to mention to keep an eye out for their Kitchen Sale Events.
      Typically, they bundle in appliances to offer a discount. I've seen 10% for one appliance, and up to 20% off the entire order for three appliances (mirco / d-w / fridge in my case).
      During one install, it was off the ENTIRE order (cabs / counters / appls / install) as a cash discount.
      The most recent was a discount off goods, but not labor, and refunded as a IKEA Credit.
      * * If you miss a Sale, simply go back when it comes on Sale again (typically 2 - 3 times per year) and they will honor the sale price / discounts...

    Love the design advice especially the bit about making choices and sticking to them. One additional idea is if you have the time, skill and tools to do it then consider making your own cabinets and and solid wood counter-tops & doors. Gives custom options and saves a ton of money but you do need access to a workshop not just hand power tools. Most likely to work if you want a traditional farmhouse style.
