I recently bought the individual parts of the Metod carcasses for my new kitchen. Since the furniture is arranged in an "L" shape and the kitchen with 243x255cm does not offer much space, the dishwasher (6) is intended to be placed on the far right later. To the right of that will be a freestanding refrigerator.

The arrangement has to be this way because if the water pipes were on the left, the kitchen would be about 10cm shorter. And there’s also a radiator in the way...... The old kitchen had base cabinets that were somehow 45cm deep; the 60cm ones from Ikea are quite large! Which, of course, makes the kitchen smaller but also provides more storage space!

I am leaving out the long/wide corner base cabinet (3) because I don’t want to buy an additional 60cm cabinet that is hard to reach; the two corner carcasses are supposed to be neatly clad in front with an angle from Küchenfront24. I thought that it would be screwed onto the left carcass.

The pictures are stock images – and ugly fronts – since the Ikea kitchen planner only runs on 32-bit systems but my board has 32GB RAM and 64-bit. 4 and 8 are 30x60x37 wall cabinets with the Jotis glass door. Number 7 has a white door.

In the 3rd picture you can see the measurements but the arrangement of the upper cabinets is from a previous plan that no longer applies. And the depth below is 635mm, Ikea standard.

What exactly do you want to know now? What or where should be masked?

No, how I install the side panel and dishwasher front without a dishwasher but so that a dishwasher can be installed later.

Ikea kitchens are fortunately modular and the appliance front is supposed to be installed at the same time. Actually, I then have something like a hole in the kitchen row but I don't have the money to buy a good dishwasher now.

Whether the side panel is possible, it might be. However, the baseboard and dishwasher door front are attached to the dishwasher. No dishwasher, no chance. Better to skip the extractor hood first if money is lacking and take the dishwasher instead. We have the Skinande, it’s not that bad. Karsten

According to Ikea, the side panel is attached from the inside of the carcass. If necessary, it can also be fixed from the inside with brackets, at the back and from above. It gets more difficult with the dishwasher front because with an installed dishwasher it is only hooked on. But we already know that. Fortunately, the plinth panels are continuous; every carcass with its own panel looks so cheap. To me, it looks like shoddy workmanship...

By the way, a decent hood costs half as much as a good dishwasher (V-Zug, Miele, Siemens, AEG). And I’m not bringing junk like PKM or Candy into my house.

I have now played around with the positions again, without a dishwasher, but with a 60 cm cabinet with shelves on the far right, that works.



I first wanted to buy a kitchen from Italy, but after three weeks of back and forth just for planning, I’m giving up. And [cucine su misura] cannot be returned. But they are all beautiful anyway! Ci vediamo

Oxidized sheet metal/concrete (light)/oxidized sheet metal;
Patinated green; this still shows the type of extractor hood that I have in mind (y)
