[quote=torrus;97139]Here are some (unofficial) new items scheduled for August 2008 introduction:


5. The existing RUBRIK glass doors are being replaced with new ones (white, green, black and blue-grey) - the difference is the new doors have a 45mm (1.75") frame vs. the old 90mm (3.5") frame.

Any idea if they mean the exterior or interior frames? I'm confused; I just measured mine (bought in March '08) and the inside frame is 1.75" and the thin exterior frame is half inch. Was thinking of adding another horizontal wall cab (hope they're still in stock!) and wonder if the new ones will look different. Thanks for the heads up!

The dimensions refer to the inside frame - I'll have to check.

The Abstrakt white and Applad white glass doors are on sale - looks like new versions are coming, but not Adel white.

Kalsebo Beech doors and some Rationell doors (including green) are 20% off at Orlando.

Orlando's sale starts tomorrow (Friday 20th). At least one dishwasher will be on sale.

I somewhat regret not coming home with Roger chairs (oak with soft upholstered seats).

Dave is on sale. And there's a bunch of discontinued kitchen cabinet hardware, including Tyda.

Kvartil candle lanterns look appropriate for hurricane season.

In the UK the Rationell range of waste sorting bins is being changed as there have been too many complaints about the lids not staying shut. The current items - waste bin with divider etc - are all going.

Not sure what they are replacing it with but I've posted elsewhere (in Modifications) about the Muellex system they are selling in IKEA Zurich.

Guess I'll have to wait and see what appears! We were told that our lazy susan would be delivered with the new solid base carousels but we've got the wire one so if they change soon then they'll be going back!

Could it be true that they are changing them???

Well they were still up as of a couple days ago here in Seattle. We will likely be hitting the sale on Sunday, so I will report back if they appear to be missing then.

Orlando is offering Linjar Blue in quite a variety of sizes at 60% off.

Also
Rubrik (black) 20% off
Appad beige 40% off

abstrakt red perhaps? Rubrik has never been red

[ikeafan60657]

Are they discontinuing Rubrik white? It's not even on display in Schaumburg anymore!!!!

[Dave of the Coonties]

The word (posted somewhere around here) is that the glass Rubrik doors are being redesigned. So the white doors will re-emerge.

[ikeafan60657]

oh good. Do you think the new Rubrik and the old Rubrik doors will look ok side-by-side? I'm concerned that if one of the ones I've already installed breaks I'll be stuck.
