Browse Forums Kitchen Corner 1 Apr 28, 2014 5:41 pm Hi, We are going to be doing a new kitchen in Hobart, Tasmania. Pleasingly Ikea now offers delivery of their kitchens and kitchen products to Tasmania (inc to your home) for a very reasonable flat fee. However it isn't clear what happens with stone bench tops? Do you buy these from Melbourne and get them shipped as well or do you have to get a local firm to do them separately? If the latter does anyone know a good priced firm in Hobart for a manufactured stone bench top. We are going to be in Melbourne for work so shopping at the store will be possible and then organise delivery.

We are in Melbourne and had a local firm make and install our benchtops but they weren't stone. Also be very careful - we found that Ikea actually made mistakes with the components ie some were missing and we had to return to the store to get them. Easy enough when you are in the same city! Also some components were damaged and needed replacing. Once again.. Have they indicated how they will handle problems like this? Re: Ikea kitchen and stone bench tops in Hobart Tasmania 3Apr 28, 2014 7:59 pm Have now managed to find the Ikea stone options and they sound good. We will ask them how they will handle missing components - that is a good point indeed. Dale. Hi - thanks for your reply.
