That's exactly me. If I could actually trust the stuff to be of high quality, I have no qualms paying for that. But if I can't find out/research it well enough, then I'll stick to cheap stuff. I happen to like IKEA a lot and am also not prone to redecorate on a whim, so in the end it really doesn't matter, unless I can't find what I need at IKEA.
