After the third IKEA kitchen in the family by now, the assembly also goes significantly faster, drawer 5-8 min. The first one was still a display model Faktum during the system change, current rental apartment and last year at the parents'.
Our rental apartment has plain Veddinge fronts in white and some cabinets that don’t actually exist like that, such as a counter with a recessed storage compartment and an extendable worktop with a 10cm high step.
Mom then preferred the country house version (vertical grooves).
In terms of quality, I have looked at pretty much everything else in the price range. There are always differences or better or different details, such as seals on the fronts or deeper cabinets, but overall with self-assembly and some DIY skills, it is also possible to save a decent amount of money. With assembly (in my opinion €200 per linear meter), you always have to consider the individual case. But in an emergency, you have the option to replace 2 doors cheaply, add a drawer where in the kitchen studio suddenly a low 40cm cabinet with 2 drawers at a friend cost over €1,000.
