Best place to buy a good kitchen

    It is worth asking Ikea if there is anything they can do to reduce the price. I told them I had a particular budget one time and they went around the design, took out bits and pieces like internal drawers and the like and knocked 200 euros off the price.

    Yeh, we'll probably book an appointment with Ikea Dublin but there's a long wait for them. Gonna give the plan to a few local places and see what they can do.

    Keep checking the appointments each day, people cancel last minute and you might just get a same day or next day slot at short notice. That's what I did. You can do the kitchen appointments in Carrickmines as well. And definitely give them your budget and they'll tailor to that. It's very easy to add/switch stuff afterwards if you can't afford everything at once

    Yes, I did in 2016. Very happy with it and with the designer. Would definitely recommend it. I've probably posted pics of it at the time.

    IKEA will be by far the cheapest (based on my experience 2 years ago). Found them great, installed the kitchen ourselves, and still working great.

    I used Eco. They were great. Really patient with all my changes. Delivery and installatiin all went smoothly. Excellent.follow on for a few small issues - door position needed to be adjusted. You get a free appliance _ I choose an induction hob (made by electrolux but with different name). Kitchen is made by Nobilia. Eco got.my stone.worktop -shopping around.on worktop didn't. yield any savings so got from Miller via Eco. Eco had really nice.laminate worktops too - the.laminates nowadays look great. Got appliances in Baize - ex display with full warranty. Ikea not as cheap as I expected but wooden worktops are great value and I used them in a different room for shelving. D1 kitchens.also very good.-few.friends.bought there. One got an in-frame wood kitchen painted in Farrow and Ball colour at a great price.
    Sorry for all the full stops -I'm using my phone and they keep popping in.

    Thanks. I am going to take a look at Cash and Carry, ECo and D1 and get quotes.

    Also Woodworkers in Terenure. Read about someone who bought heavy wood doors there and then got their own fitter. Worked out much cheaper than some kitchen shops.

    Thanks but I need someone who will remove the old kitchen, put in the new one, including new floors don't want the hassle of having to get someone to do stuff

    Still looking, was not impressed with Cash and Carry, looked badly made.

    We got our kitchen last year from http://bespace.ie based in Blanchardstown. Their showrooms are amazing, great quality and gives you loads of ideas. Would highly recommend them, we dealt with Susan.

    Look expensive? ,no prices on site.

    Yes, I thought the same but we got quotes from cash and carry and bespace and both came in the same but bespace trumped on quality and design. We had no issues at all and the fitter was excellent, his name escapes me right now. A year later and it's still looks brand new! I would recommend them to anyone.

    I was in with them on Saturday for wardrobes and their wait times are long, can't fit me on until mid October. Probably the same for kitchens.

    Id also get quotes from local kitchen fitters/ joiners. They can be cheaper than a lot of these places.

    100% second this.
    I'll be getting my kitchen from a small local outfit here in Waterford. I went to no less than 8 kitchen providers for quotes, these guys came in as the 2nd cheapest (homebase were cheaper) but having seen 2 kitchens they've done, combined with the bespoke aspect it was a no brainer for me.

    Mind you house isn't built yet so can't back up my opinion with anything real just yet! :)

    Got a good price from Noyeks in Ballymount. Not sure about fitting costs, as we have someone already doing it. Entire kitchen length is 9 metres, no island, no appliances, extra high larder units, came in around €5.5k ex VAT

    One thing to remember in your pricing is that a difference price comes about if you buy a kitchen and hire a fitter separately.

    If you hire someone to supply & fit a kitchen, they will charge you 13.5% VAT on everything.

    If you buy a kitchen and hire someone to install it, you'll pay 23% on the kitchen and 13.5% on the fitting.

    Hi, just wondering if you got this kitchen in yet? I'm based in Waterford as well and building a house so I'm looking at kitchens at the minute. Would you mind telling me who the kitchen supplier is as well?
