How do I buy a kitchen at IKEA?

Whether you're buying your very first kitchen, thinking about updating or expanding your current kitchen, or you're already experienced in buying a kitchen, we'll make it easy for you to find your dream kitchen, all at your preferred speed!

Buying a kitchen requires careful attention to detail. That's why every kitchen purchase consists of several steps. At each step, you can decide whether you want to do it yourself or take advantage of professional and personal advice from our IKEA kitchen experts. Would you like us to install it? In order for us to be able to assemble your kitchen professionally, a professional measurement is required in advance. We will be happy to organise this for you.
  1. Get inspired – what does your dream kitchen look like?
    You probably already have an image of your dream kitchen in mind. The IKEA kitchen range covers every design preference – from a sleek and modern high-tech kitchen to traditional kitchens with beautiful natural materials. You will find lots of inspiration on our Website. If you also want to get a feel for our materials, there's no better way than to visit one of our IKEA stores near you.
     
    You want to discover all the possibilities? Then book an appointment with our IKEA kitchen experts. We can help you from the comfort of your own home or in one of our IKEA stores.
  2. Make it fit – measure the room where you want your new kitchen to be placed
    When it comes to kitchens, every millimetre counts. That's why it's important to measure your space accurately – including the position of doors, windows, radiators and other obstructions. If you provide us with these measurements, we'll be happy to help you make the most of the available space.
     
    Would you like to take measurements yourself? Then simply use our measuring instructions. If you need help or decide to have the kitchen installed by us, we will be happy to arrange our IKEA measurement service for you.
  3. Plan your kitchen – develop your first kitchen design online or let us help you
    Once you've decided on your dream kitchen and know the measurements of your kitchen space, you're ready to move on to the planning phase. With your measurements and personal preferences, you can start creating a kitchen design.
     
    At this stage, it's also important to set your budget. We offer different kitchen solutions for every budget, so if you're looking for a quick and easy kitchen solution at a great price, consider our KNOXHULT kitchen range.

  4. Make a decision – review your kitchen design, the price offer and finalize your dream kitchen
    After you've created your first kitchen design, you'll probably need some time to review your options and make a final decision. You may want to visit one of our IKEA stores beforehand to see and touch the items live. We'll then be happy to book a follow-up appointment with our kitchen experts to discuss your options. We want to guide you on the way to your new kitchen in the best possible way – after all, buying a kitchen is a special moment that you only experience a few times in your life.
     
    There are several elements in your kitchen design that have a big impact on the final price. For example, the choice of doors and drawer fronts, the kitchen appliances and the worktop. IKEA offers a wide range of doors, appliances and worktops – there is something to suit every budget. If you change any of these components in the kitchen planning tool, you will immediately see an updated price offer.
     
    Are you satisfied with your kitchen design and wondering how to pay at IKEA? Please take a look at our payment options Including our ions financing options or ask our kitchen experts.
  5. Place the kitchen order – arrange the purchase of the kitchen as well as delivery and assembly
    When you are ready to order your kitchen, we recommend that you visit one of our stores or book an appointment. Have you already had contact with our kitchen experts? Then feel free to contact your personal kitchen consultant.
     
    When ordering the kitchen, we will align with you the dates for delivery and installation of the kitchen. If you want to build your new kitchen yourself, our kitchen experts will support you with tips and helpful documents.
     
    Do you need help dismantling your old kitchen or disposing of your appliances? Feel free to contact our kitchen experts before placing an order – they will advise you on all our services.
  6. Kitchen delivery - preparing for the delivery of all kitchen components
    To ensure that all the necessary kitchen items can be delivered without any problems, we recommend clearing the kitchen space completely. Alternatively, an adjacent area can be used to store boxes, appliances and the worktop.
     
    Make sure that the path to the room is free of obstacles and that there is enough space for the largest delivery items. If the delivery is going to use an elevator, make sure that there is easy access and enough space on the day of delivery.
     
    After everything has been delivered, compare the item list with the items delivered. Also, check that there is no visible damage to the delivered items. If you notice that something is wrong after delivery, please contact the IKEA customer service. This allows us to help you quickly and efficiently before the installation of your kitchen starts.
     
  7. Installing your new kitchen – your dream kitchen will come to life
    Whether you're installing your kitchen yourself or using the IKEA kitchen installation service, we'll make sure the process is as easy as possible.
     
    If you have any questions during the self-installation of your kitchen, our kitchen installation instructional videos and our kitchen installation guide will suuport you. Please note, that the guide is currently only available in German.

    If you have chosen our kitchen installation service and have questions, you can ask them directly to the installation team.
