No experience with them, but we got a good relationship with a builder who does most of the work in our flat and opt for them to do our Wren kitchen instead of Wren’s sub contractor.
The thing is that the builder that kitchen companies hired tend to just do that: build kitchen.
The person we choose to build our kitchen, does not just that but also the preparation, modifications, and changes that not parts of thr kitchen (such as floor, extractor piping, radiator).
It cost more to hire an individual but it gave us reassurance that it’ll be made well and can make changes along the way when needed.

Unless things have changed, they are sub contractors, not Ikea employees. On the upside they'll know the products and their design well, but like a lot of similar services, it will depend a little on who you get. Ours was really well fitted, only plinths weren't quite 100%.

are you not tempted to DIY it?
it's not really much different to building any other IKEA furniture... -
Used the IKEA kitchen fitter for my recent renovation and was glad I did. From fitting hundreds of the things he was well aware of an issues that would arrise and did a fantastic job in a wonky (Victorian) build.
I had two other options;
Fit myself - which if I screwed up I'd be forever looking at it.
Another fitter - chap came out and didn't seem all that bothered.

What are people's experience with Ikea's kitchen fitters they provide? Is it worth getting my own kitchen fitters? And if so, does anyone have any recommendations?
