    IKEA is usually very good, but there is a lot of cheaper stuff at other stores where holes aren’t lined up correctly or the fasteners are cheap and easy to damage. I have had some build issues with IKEA too, usually really inexpensive stuff like a dining room chair, but it is uncommon.

        Technically right, though. OP didn’t specify we’re talking about Linux here. And the way IKEA does it works quite well. At least for me. And they’re nice and give you spare parts if you need them.

            So I got my complete kitchen from them, excluding the basin, the electrical devices and the countertop. And a 3m PAX wardrobe. Half of the kitchen moved with us and we got the rest delivered. The two men were crazy ‘animals’ who got the tons of laminated wood into the house in no time. It took us about 3 days to assemble it all. And I’m really satisfied with everything. Especially all the drawers we got for the kitchen are awesome. No bending down and rummaging in kitchen cabinets any more…

            100% can recommend. Quality is better than most cheap kitchens I sometimes see at other people’s places. But it’s probably not top-of-the notch either. But I’m sure it’ll last for quite some time.

            (Disclaimer: I’m German. We (more often than not) don’t get the kitchen provided by the landlord.)
