Ikea worktop and upstands

I have finally decided to go for an IKEA kitchen with their Pragel stone effect black worktop. I would really like upstands but IKEA don't seem to do them.

Does anyone know where I can get matching upstands?

I've been to the usual sheds but none seem to quite match. Does anyone know who manufacturers the worktops?

Any suggestions?

Thanks

    you will not get matching splash backs or upstands

    the ikea worktops are cheap rubbish, i have seen so many blistered, square edge stone effect worktops chipped and rough finished when taken out the box

    stick with duropal, formica and if fitted correctly will outlast the units!

  • Granted that IKEA worktops are not as good quality as other big brands but they are really cheap and I thought their worktops are suppose to be guaranteed for 25 years. Even if they only last 5 years or so, I would be happy.

    Has anyone else had problems with their IKEA worktops?

    Anyway, where else can I get 620mm deep laminate worktops without it costing a fortune.
