Thanks to my daughter I've become quite expert. Ikea kitchens are probably the best value around but not the best quality. I would strongly recommend choosing the better quality ones from Ikea, be sure to check front, side and back! Look at the way the drawers slide and the doors hang, open and close. Remember that the quality of assembley will affect the end result and the ones you are looking at in the store are assembled by staff that do it all the time.
I've seen some bathroom cabinets with cardboard backs. The quality of the chipboard can be iffy but shouldn't give any problems unless you disassemble and reassemble later. We've never had any problems with missing parts and two women managed to assemble several kitchens, wardrobes, bits of bathrooms and countless pieces of furniture with the tools provided, a drill and a multitool. So it really isn't that hard - we did have all the plumbing ready and had a plumber do the dishwasher etc.
