I would rather eat and sleep on the floor then ever buy another piece of that shit again. 

I bought a few pieces for my daughter years ago and spent an annoying fucking afternoon putting it all together. 

I will never cheap out on the slight premium  it costs for a "normal" nightstand, bed frame and kitchen table again.

Real wood, professional joinery = built to last

Woodchip and cardboard screwed together = built to lapse

IKEA is what it is and meets a certain quality/price point. Three pages of people bitching about it for what it is not is irrelevant. A Chevy Cobalt is not a Ferrari. Bitching because the former is not the latter is pointless.

you have to go on an "expedition" through the whole store, just to get to that simple table you already knew you were going to buy. No short cuts to a certain department... you have to zig zag through the whole thing. Then, having jotted down the registration number of your desired product, you have to collect it yourself from their magazine. You drag the whole contraption to the register, after which you have to drag it to a different counter to tell some one to deliver it to your home.


Sinergy and I used to call that the "IKEA torture"... he got a lot of stuff there.
