Expecting to walk into IKEA with a plan on a napkin and have them design your kitchen for you?  Don't find yourself flat-footed...get the real low-down on what IKEA co-workers will actually do, and what you need to do for yourself ahead of time. 

Not really. They used to, but their business practices in regard to planning have changed. You can ask questions, and if the stars align and you get a helpful, knowledgable co-worker when it's not busy, you may get some real help. But mostly you're on your own. Well, not really...you have us!

The Kitchen Planning forum is chock full of IKEA kitchen plans created, modified, reviewed, renewed and completed right here on the site. And thanks to the generosity of our members, it's all free. Who ever said nothing is free? Wrong! Of course, IKEAFANS isn't free to run (and it's not paid for by IKEA), so if you get valuable help from members here, please consider supporting the community by making a donation. Support IKEAFANS!
