So, what would people’s dream kitchen be like? We surveyed thousands of people, visited hundreds of homes and worked with food industry professionals. “We found if there's one thing in common with kitchens around the world it's that they're different.” Klas-Ola says. “For as many people who dream of an open space kitchen, there are people with a small space, or a space that cannot be changed that much.”

Looks amazing but doesn’t stickAndreaLooks great when put on but adhesive is absolutely hopeless and lasts minutes to days at most. About to try superglue as suggested by others.
Very good cover strip.TrevorThe strip worked well to cover the side of my kitchen cabinet. I did find, however, that I had to use superglue to stick in place as it started to peel off after a day or two. Nevertheless, with the superglue it is very effective in finishing off the appearance of the cupboards.
Poor adhesive EmreVery poor adhesive, fall down on the first day.
Poor adhesiveJohnAs others have said, it sticks poorly to the cabinet. However, by cleaning the cabinet with alcohol and using a little super glue at each end of the cover strip I managed to get it to stick. It's been there for about 6 months and shows no further sign of falling off.
Easy assembly,no problem.IanEasy assembly,no problem.
Cover strip failReneeThe adhesive strip adhered to everything except the cabinets. They continually unstuck and fell off within 15 mins.

Nice design and finish but room to improvePaulReally well cut and the finish looks nice, but the laminate chips easily when you do up screws in the predrilled holes.

Story
A kitchen that took us around the world
Whatever your dream kitchen is, it’s probably different from many other people’s dreams. This we learned when researching kitchen desires around the globe. Our conclusion for the METOD kitchen system: it should make it possible to design the best kitchen for you – whatever your preferences and living situation.
Our ambition is to help as many as possible to have a kitchen they'd love to be in. We started sketching. “When we created METOD, it was our biggest ever kitchen change, so it's fair to say we were very keen to get it right,” says technician Klas-Ola Nilsson.
Research from around the world
From research to result
One element became blindingly important. “We realized we needed a kitchen system that could adapt to different sized spaces in a way that hadn't been done before,” Klas-Ola says. “So, we developed cabinets that could fit almost anywhere.” Different sizes can be mixed to best fit the room and they'll still fit together – without odd ends. The clever inside can be personalized to support your kitchen needs and activities, too.
Ready for the future
An adaptable kitchen fits better with how you like to cook, both now and in the future. Whether you start craving a more professional kitchen, or just want to start using it for more activities, we would love METOD to help out. “There's nothing to say that METOD is set and fixed now,” Klas-Ola says. “People’s ideas on what a dream kitchen should do is always evolving. To meet future needs, METOD will evolve, too.”
Function solution
Building blocks for the kitchen
METOD frames provide the base for your new kitchen. Choose between base cabinets, wall cabinets and high cabinets in many different widths. Wall cabinets and high cabinets also come in different heights. If you want to use a corner, choose a corner base cabinet with a carousel that makes it easy to reach what's inside. There are even special frames for a built-in single or double oven. Perfect if you want to have the oven at a comfortable working height. Complement with practical UTRUSTA, UPPDATERA and VARIERA interior fittings.
