IKEA built in appliances – Vs other brands

[drummonkey]

So we’re having a new IKEA kitchen fitted and need some appliance advice, my understanding is the IKEA appliances are built by Whirlpool but that’s only internet searches that say so, nothing concrete!

We need a built in oven, integrated FF, and an integrated dishwasher, so have shortlisted the following:

IKEA Rengora D/W £350
IKEA Mattradition Pyrolytic Oven £375
IKEA Tinad 70/30 FF £450 279L

I like the fact they have a 5 year warranty in comparison to others, and I can’t find a similar spec oven with a full pyro liner for the same money either.

I have seen similar FF’s for similar money without the same warranty and the freezer isn’t frost free (could this actually be a blessing though?).

The D/W seems expensive compared to some, however I don’t have full specs and I’m thinking of the construction, as stainless tanks are recommended here.

Any advice on the above is gratefully received, thanks all!

Cheers Dave,

Do you happen to know any other info about it? Is it any good in comparison? The dishwasher is the thing I’ve looked at that I can save cash on, however they don’t have the 5 year warranty so maybe it’s better to go with the IKEA?

Thanks!

if you look at a similar AEG unit you are talking £399 and only 2 years guarantee so it looks like a good price for what you are getting

Cheers Dave, thats reassuring. How do I find out about it’s construction? Is there a way to tell?

I’m going to buy the new sofa, and you know what? After a small local shop research and asking few friends, no one adviced me IKEA, since the quality of products here leaves you to wish them better luck
