I like IKEA... ...Got my bed, nightstand and lamps there.
Although a LOT of their merchandise is somewhat sterile and cheap, there's enough good quality stuff there to make it worth your while. | |

All the furniture at my house is from IKEA, all other furniture shops here are way too expensive for me and usually tacky in design, or overly ornate. I like simple stuff | |

Ikea makes decent bedstands and bookshelves, but I made my own bedroom set with my uncle cause hes got woodworking skills! Carpenters bend wood, fletchers bend arrows, wise men fashion themselves.

IKEA is cool. I seen a lot of stuff in there that I would love to get when I get my own apartment...yes sir
like someone else said before, i would love to get locked inside overnight to try out all the cool stuff... i love how their furniture is simple, modern yet elegant at the same time, i can't stand all that heavy, decorative furniture that my family is into, plus its way too heavy... I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

Shopped there last week!
I LOVE IKEA; especially the food hall. I think the lower priced products can show in the quality ; but spend a little bit more and you can find some really decent stuff. Bought a lovely Dime bar cake there as well. | |

they moved the ikea where i shopped too
it's an 8 hour drive to even get to the closest store but at least it was on they way out of the city from my sisters now it's an hour drive across the city and an hour drive to get back out on the highway but i've always wondered if i would trust ikea to buy my sofa from... headboards and stuff i can understand. that being said, my coffee table and end table are ikea my tv stand lots of my storage boxes/containers are ikea my cooking pots are ikea love their cheap housewares i have some neat sock-like chair covers toilet brush (how can you beat $1.24 or whatever it is??) i have to pick up a towel rack to match the others for the bathroom after i repaint cool tissue holder and q-tip holder oh and the mirrors are a great deal too i forgot! i also have two rugs from ikea once i get my grandmother's table refinished my ikea livingroom stuff will look too modern the end tables i can deal with... but what do i put my tv on when i get rid of my ikea stand?? | |

If so, what are your honest opinions of the store and the products??? Thanks!!! I shop IKEA. Their Prices are great and the quality is far better then you should expect for the price. The store is awesome and fun, a very healthy walk. I often eat at their food court while there. I eat then walk. IKEA is a cool store, with a new approach. News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so. You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop. | |

I like Ikea a lot. The quality/durability on a lot of it isn't the greatest, but the design is great. For the price, there's nothing better. oh noes, prince is gonna soo me!!1! | |

I always found it interesting how he instructions don't have any words!
womg! Most of the furniture is cool and relatively cheap 'cause you gotta assemble it yourself...which is kinda fun. More fun than finding your way thru the acutal labyrinth of a store. I stick to the catalouge. | |
