Overall, it was beautiful. An excellent product. It cost me about 30% of what a contractor would have charged to install a comparative kitchen.
Being 'boxed' products, you will be on your knees for hours with screwdrivers and hinges for assembly. Tons of recycle cardboard to deal with.
The only problem I encountered was an annoying supply issue.
After mapping out the many units and pieces required I head down to Ikea. They had 75% of what I needed. The other pieces were 'out of stock'. This required a few trips over a few weeks as items slowly trickled in. Things like cabinet doors and drawer faces.
I did not use Ikea counter tops, or sinks/plumbing. I purchased those from a Hardware chain.
Yeah, I think if they don't have everything, I'll buy what I can and wait till I have everything till I start the job, how long did it take before they got the rest of your order?

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
