"Review of IKEA AKURUM/RATIONELL kitchen cabinets"
I purchased these cabinets from IKEA last month and I must say that so far I am very satisfied. The cabinets look great in my kitchen. I bought them in white to replace some old, dark cabinetry and the results are fantastic. The kitchen now looks so open and airy. I would recommend these cabinets to anyone looking to remodel their kitchen and likes the look of white cabinets. I personally feel that white is a great color for kitchen cabinets. What I like most about the cabinets it's their look and how gorgeous, open and inviting they make my kitchen look. If I had to say something I dislike about it would be the fact that they tend to show dirt a little bit more than say a darker color cabinet. This really isn't a problem for me as I like to keep everything clean and will wipe with a damp sponge almost everyday but if you are not a clean freak that might be something to consider. All in all I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend these to a friend.

"A Simple Review of Cabinets that come from Ikea and how they compare to previous cabinets."
Well first of all, the most important attribute about these cabinets is that they look great. Surprisingly, it was rather hard for me to find contemporary cabinets that I didn't have to pay outrageous shipping fees for,but, luckily, and Ikea had recently opened in a town near mine. They were completely easy to install by myself due to their light weight, lack of complex parts, and use of minimal tools. The quality of the wood is quite lacking though, sometimes it feels rather cheap because it isn't made of a sturdy wood. As of now, however, I haven't had any issues with it, no breakage, chipping, or sagging. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants a lovely modern feel to their kitchen (or any other storage areas).

"Ikea offers value and flexibility"
I've purchased my Ikea Applad White cabinets in 2010. I made my purchase decision based on the value that the cabinets offered. I was able to purchase my cabinets and assemble them myself and include many desired features like pull out shelves and soft closing doors and drawers for much less than the least expensive ready made cabinets on the market at my local hardware store. If there is anything that I dislike about my cabinets, it is that I can't find any other place in my home to install them! I love the project of design and installation so much I would love to do it again. I have had zero problems with the cabinets to date. I would recommend these cabinets to my friends. In fact, I have! And my friend ended up installing another finish of these cabinets in her home as well and she loves them too!

"IKEA cabinets are great for the price"
I have owned the Liatorp cabinets by IKEA for over a year now. I really like it because it looks great with the glass doors. There are quite a few racks so you can store a lot of things from plates to silverware to photo frames to souvenirs from vacation and knick knacks. It's a great place to display fragile objects because the doors are glass, so people don't have to open the cabinet doors to look at the goods. I have it in a pleasant and neutral white color that would match any home. I get lots of compliments on this piece of furniture. Although the construction of the cabinet took a few hours, I built it well and have not needed to get it repaired yet. I would definitely recommend the cabinet to friends and family because not only is it reasonably priced, but it is also functional, and looks great in the home. I get a lot of my goods from IKEA and would do it again!

"GREAT PRICE, GREAT PRODUCT"
I have owned the cabinet for 8 months now and I have not had one problem with it. It was easy to assemble and the directions are very straight foward. Due to the material the cabinet is made out of it makes it extremely easy to wash. It has taken a beaten to with the dog always jumping on it trying to get to food on the counter top and I am shocked to find not one scratch! It is a very well built piece and the color is stunning. I am very statisfied with the space in it, my only complaint is the legs seem a little cheap. With that being said for the price of it you can not really complain. There are alot of other peices made by the company that I also have and not one has broken! I would highely recommend this product and brand to all of my closest friends and family!

"IKEA Kitchen Cabinets Are A Great Bargain"
When we renovated our apartment, we wanted to update our kitchen while not losing out on the price. We went looking at a lot of different kitchen stores and had a huge variety of options in New York. We ended up at IKEA and we just could not walk away after looking at the quality and price of their cabinetry. The IKEA Akurum White cabinets did the trick for us. The kitchen cabinets look far more expensive than their actual price -- they are slick, modern, come in a variety of colors (we got white but red is also very attractive), and they are a great value.
There is not much to dislike about an IKEA Akurum kitchen cabinet -- it washes well, it has soft closures so it never bumps when you close a cabinet hard, it feels sturdy and reliable. Aesthetically, the cabinets are very pleasing to the eye. We've had the cabinets for over three years and we have not had to repair them once so far. The installation of the cabinets was a little bit of an issue -- but we decided to have professionals do it, and that is worth the price as well. I would not recommend that an inexperienced person install the cabinetry. You're far better off with a professional. Even with the cost of installation, an IKEA kitchen beats the price of other kitchens by many thousands of dollars.
I would wholeheartedly recommend IKEA to a friend -- they are truly a great bargain and feel and look like much more expensive cabinetry.

"Mike's Ikea Cabinets"
I installed my Ikea cabinets about a year ago and I'm mostly satisfied with them. I really enjoy their shape and color and the layout fits my kitchen nicely. I like that two of the cabinets can be opened vertically rather than horizontally. However, the hardware that keeps the vertical cabinet door open seems to have worn out pretty quickly. The cabinet door does not stay open as stiffly as it used to. The cabinets take a while to self assemble but the price is affordable and I enjoy the look. Overall, I'm mostly satisfied.

"A Nice Heavy Wood Grain"
We have owned these cabinets for 2 years now. I love the off-cherry color and the heaviness you dont usually feel with an Ikea product. I have no complaints. Never needed repair. I would recommend this to a friend, and would by again. Ikea makes quality products.

"Ikea cabinets: durable, affordable, beautiful"
We are very satisfied with our Ikea Akurum Lidi white cabinets. They have been in place 3 years and still look brand new. They were affordable, easily customizable to fit in the small space of our kitchen and all us to have much more storage than before. The drawer pulls are the best of any cabinets we tried, the cabinet doors close softly without slamming, and the shelves are easily adjustable to fit our pots, pans, dishes, and glasses. We have not had to repair or replace any items in the three years we have had the kitchen. Our Ikea install was MUCH cheaper than similar (but lower quality) cabinets would have been from Home Depot or Lowes. When we purchased too many items, Ikea was very easy to deal with and painlessly processed the returns without any hassles. We would recommend Ikea to anyone looking to install a kitchen in an area within 100 miles of an Ikea store. They are easy to install yourself as a homeowner or easy to have a contractor install.

"How to keep the cost and still look great."
I have owned the cabinets for 5 years. We went to the Ikea store with our measurements. The staff was very helpful in helping us pick the cabinet we would need to fill the space. We left room for a dishwasher, which we did not buy from them. We installed them ourself and we played a huge part on the outcome of the kitchen. They were very easy to install. We live in Ohio and went to Pennsylvania to get the cabinets. They were shipped to the house, in the box and all the hardware. We read the setup guide Ikea gave us on our design and did all the work our self. I paid more for the granite countertop them I did for the cabinets. This was a huge transformation at a 3rd of the cost. I would deal with Ikea again and again.
