I've never been to an Ikea. Until recently there wasn't one in my state. Because of this I'm always amazed that so many people seem to have this fascination with it.
- knz 10y agoIt's cheap and they have some products that are remarkably solid. Others and cheap and fall to pieces or sag quickly. Caveat emptor always applies at IKEA!
- ghaff 10y agoIt's set up to be something of an experience. I go to my local (but not conveniently nearby) one every couple of years or so and there's definitely entertainment value to the whole thing.

- macintux 10y agoI wouldn't know Ikea furniture if I tripped over it. I'd barely ever heard of the company until ~5 years ago. It's almost as if I'd never seen a TV program, given its apparent cultural significance.
- stinkytaco 10y agoFor the price it's well made and looks pretty nice. Better than what you get at a big box and less than what you get at a furniture store. It's really hard to find furniture in the US.
