Advantages: we never got one

Disadvantages: installation service hopeless

We tried to order an IKEA kitchen from the Milton Keynes shop and get it installed by IKEA. To make a long story short (and to forget numerous phone calls) we got the mobile number of a kitchen fitter for our 250 installation fee, who didn't seem to be in the mood to install an IKEA kitchen. After another 6 weeks IKEA finally acknowledged that they couldn't get the kitchen installed. It took another two months and countless phone calls to get the installation fee back.

If you really want an IKEA kitchen, try to find an installer yourself. But be aware that kitchen fitters are not very keen on IKEA: IKEA kitchens lack the space behind the cabinets where usually the plumbing is hidden. Usually fitters charge more for IKEA kitchens.

Summary: The kitchen installation service is hopeless.
