    Dolbydix,

    I may be able to help you. I supply low cost, hi quality pre assembled kitchens (not flatpacked) for the home renovator / property investment market. Here is a link for a basic L shaped kitchen with pricing. You can email me with a plan of your kitchen if you wish.

    Growing old is much better than the alternative!

    We've just been through this, still going through it. Ours gets delivered on Wednesday. We bought lamikit flat packed cupboards made by laminex industries, way cheaper than ikea, and sounds about the same price as bunnies. Plastic adjustable feet, removable kickboard, delivered to our door.

    The money we're saving on flat packs we can put into a nice granite benchtop.

    I put a new kitchen in an apartment I am renting out about 6 months ago. At the time I had looked into building it from scratch myself, but didn’t go with that option as I was trying to get a tenant back in.

    So I went with the flat packed option and installed it myself. I had initially looked at ikea, they were actually the cheapest, but only by about $300. The problem i had with Ikea was that I had an odd shaped kitchen, and the oven and fridge spaces werent standard. This presented a problem with Ikea as there is not much flexibility. I think if you have a pretty standard square kitchen ikea would be the go for the cabinets at least. The bench tops were another matter. They only sell bench tops in 2 or 3 sizes, you then cut these down yourself and use an infill strip to cover the joint. i didn’t think it looked all that attractive. The other option would be to get someone to make the bench top for you, or make it yourself. I have since renovated another kitchen and made the benchtop myself, it wasn’t particularly difficult. But you cant get the post formed style yourself though.

    In the end I bought my kitchen from kitcraft kitchens in osbourne park. they were a bit more expensive than ikea, but they made up a couple of cupboards to fit my odd shaped kitchen, plus my walls were on an angle of 108 degrees so that complicated things for the bench top, but they came and measured and it all fitted.

    It took me about 3 days to assemble and install the kitchen. Part of the problem was the complete lack of instructions. Basically you get a whole heap of melamine, screws, dowels and those cam screw things and not much else. the normal square cupboards were fairly easy to work out but the more complicated ones like the oven unit and corner units were a real pain, particularly as they all had extra holes in them that didn’t seem to correspond to anything.

    They say you can give them a call if you are stuck, but I did it on a long weekend so that was no help. In the end it all went together, but I would question their claim that anyone could do it. But if you are reasonably handy and you have a bit of time you should be able to work it out.

    I have since come across Joyce kitchens in o connor that sell do it yourself kitchens as well, but i'm not sure of their pricing.

    Clint...
