Got my cupboard installed from ikea. Took 9 hours too install. It also includes a hamper. Before and after shots.








Love your wardrobe
looks fab
I am a big fan of IKEA. Got a couple of things from there and was very satisfied. They are value for money.
Did you choose individual pieces & then fit them in your space?
Our build just started, slab got poured today.

Thank you. Yeah I just got different sizes of cupboards to fit my space. There’s so much cupboards it’s awesome. Ikea is great for things like that. I have heard people get kitchen through them. And they love them.


Congrats on your slab. Where are you building?

Love it, just saw it on Facebook too, it looks fab, well done!




Thank you
. Yeah I posted it in a few places. To give others ideas so they don’t go and pay a fortune to get just average ones installed. It’s so worth it


Wow looks amazing can I ask if u took something standard or could choose your size and hence custom make it to order? I have been to Ikea and they said they have standard sizes so was wondering how u got around that?

Hi Doulton
Could you please post a close up pic of your rangehood. We have 2.7m ceilings n removed bulkhead in kitchen so could have extra tall cabinets n hubby said that from the outside it appears there is a join in the rangehood tall part to reach the ceiling. So like 2 rectangle boxes placed 1 on top of the other to reach the ceiling. We will ask to take a closer look before handover. Thanks

I still can't work out how you got it for the price you did... We got quoted nearly 8k for a smaller wardrobe that's simpler in layout

Ours has the join in it too. It doesn’t stand out too much so it doesn’t bother me.

How was that from ikea? It’s all standard sizes we got too.


Ok so I been bugging hubby for ages about under the stairs getting messy. So he ended up finally doing this for our networking.

It's completely disparate isn't it?

I'm in the IT game, and used to be a cabler, and can tell you that ours will look nowhere near that tidy!!!

Hubby knew that it had to be tidy or else he would be out
so he spent a few hours making it all work.

That doesn’t make sense. Do you have a pic of your wardrobe?


It's a standard, 4.6m sliding door covered wardrobe, which is why we don't get it
