Remodelfla, yes you can make a 12" pullout per amberly's description. You don't necessarily have to use the pieces from a 12" cab to make the pullout, though-- you can trim the pieces from a 15" cab instead, and assemble the cab with deck screws. Either way will work, though it may be a little easier to make the cab square using the 12" cab parts. Since you are making your drawer and door fronts, you can make one tall door to use as the pullout. I would stick to Ikea's design of having one tall door as a pullout on the bottom and a shorter door on hinges on top-- pullouts up high are hard to see into without a stool. With custom drawer fronts you should not have to use any trim pieces. Moccasinlanding: Yes, you must purchase side panels for exposed sides, though you may substitute beadboard. The door and drawer fronts you use depend on how you want to configure the tall cab space. Several standard configurations are in the Ikea catalog, and if you order a standard configuration, the salesperson will tell you what you need in terms of add-ons like legs, hardware, etc. I think the planning software does that as well. However, I think two tall cabs flanking a DR window could be a bit overwhelming. How about doing base cabs with glass-fronted wall cabs stacked on top, to make each unit look like a hutch? The glass-fronted cabs could have lights inside, and hold your glassware and china.

Ponotte Beau! Cuisine ! Magnifique! merveilleux ! If I remember correctly you and your DH were worried about the Hospital look. You also had to search for Tile in Europe as it is harder to find than in the US. I had been so curious to know how you had been coming along. I am thrilled to see it is amazing. You have a beautiful french kitchen. I love the shelves beside the oven, the elegant backsplash, the hood and especially how you handled the window. Lovely sofit your DH must have built. No pristine hospital. Instead you have a classy, fresh crisp, functional kitchen in a wonderful French city. Now a toast! Félicitations. ~boxerpups I love what you did with the backsplash.

It isn't so much where it is, but where it's not. Think of the expression to "get your _ _ _ in a wringer" literally and that's where I, tongue in cheek, come out on this.

It's not attached to the door, and it swings, then pulls out. Of course Ikea doesn't actually say that, because it would be helpful, and they can't have their website encouraging people to buy things. Here's a Video, it's installation, but I have it set to once he's pulling it out. (Not the best install video, either- there is a hole so that it's on the bottom of the cabinet, he apparently just didn't see it, per another install video).
