htracey, I got the birch interior. Look less cheap to me than the white. That was my biggest hesitation about IKEA--I didn't like the interiors of the cabs that much and I don't really like the looks of metal drawers--admit I am a sucker for the wooden dovetail look. BUT, I decided the functionality--that birch melamine will be easier to clean than the icky plywood interiors we have now--and the metal interiors of the drawers allow for a ton of customization--IKEAs drawer dividers hook on the rails on the front and back of the drawers and so you can really customize your storage. Mine are all in boxes in the family room, so I can't give you too much realworld advice yet. I love the kitchen someone posted above (Brickman I think is username) and I'll post this one I saw the other day on IKEAfans. Look at what he did with the little drawers by the fridge--too cool. And he used two shades of gray on the cabs and LOTS of custom trim. You can really dress up the plain IKEA cabs with options outside IKEA.

I don’t mind to have the glass door without the grill. Should I cut out a solid bodbyn door? Or one with glass?(I’m affraid the trim is glued to the glass. If I use a solid door, in which place should I make the cut? Same as how they sell the glass ones?

Are you doing three drawers with drawer fronts on the bottom and then a door above with two inner drawers? That's what we are doing. Our first hinge uses hole #27 from the bottom and it looks like we can put the first drawer slide at #29; 2nd drawer can be around #36, depending on how much space we want in-between. I'd show a pic but we don't have drawers installed yet - it is just stickies marking the holes. We got to these positions by holding up the door to mark where the hinges would be and looking at the different configurations in the IKEA directions to get a starting point for the two inner drawers.

Let me see if I can help. I've spent some time in Ikea lately. The brown wood grained ones are definatly a med-dark brown. There is a bit of red undertones, but I would definately say they read as brown. The newer shaker style remind me of the maple ones I put in my mom's kitchen 15 plus years ago. Those have a honey stain, which was basically one color up from natural. It does not read yellow to me. Its definately a "light natural" wood tone. Blonde, but not yellow. You can certainly play with the design and then pick your fronts when you see them in person.
