What should I consider when planning my own kitchen?

When designing your dream kitchen through our IKEA Kitchen planner tool, we recommend that you first take advantage of our helpful kitchen guide. It prepares you for all steps that you need to take into consideration when planning your own kitchen, including measurement tips and checklists. In the planning tool, you can also get inspiration from using ready-made suggestions if that's more your thing. 

Make sure that you are logged into your IKEA Family account so that your plan will be saved. 

When you are ready, you can choose to validate your plan through the planning tool or book a planning meeting with a kitchen expert. We offer planning appointments both online and in-store depending on your preference. After reviewing your plan, if you would like to proceed with your purchase, the kitchen specialist can finalise your shopping list and place the order for you.
