I love Ikea buuuut Their furniture SUCKS!!! I moved my dresser when rearranging my room last night and the whole damn thing just fell apart! I guess you get what you pay for is true! Anyone else had the same problemo???
The whole idea is that its disposable --- I love shopping at their store - Swedish meatballs!!!
SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
almost all my furniture (except my bed, dresser, desk and one couch) is from ikea. a whole shitload of knick knacks too (utensils, glasses, bar equipment, towels, tupperware, etc) and i've never had a problem with any of it.
It's definitly cheap ... if you don't move it arround too much there is no problem thought

Cheap laminate covered particle board is what makes IKEA's founder rich. 80% of what they sell is simply dressed up sawdust. Do you know moving companies won't even insure particle board furniture? It crushes into powder at the slightest impact. I avoid the stuff like a plague.
There are some true deals at IKEA but you have to look hard. I try to get the "real wood" stuff - even if it's cheap wood like pine or poplar. At least you know it should survive a move.

Yup I should not have moved it by myself! Lets not even talk about the bed!!! I wish I could say the legs broke for other reasons but the truth is I moved that by myself as well!
A lot of there stuff is so cheap... it's always breaking on me. Even kitchen stuff... I had a can opener that the handle broke off after like 5 cans. I bought it because it looked good and strong since it was all stainless steel. HA!

Maybe you didn't put it together great? Thats the main downside of buying that stuff...
A lot of people I know just love their stuff. I have not bought any furniture from them though...I tend to shy away from the cheaper stuff as I worry about the quality of it. I would rather just save up and buy something of very good quality. I think it saves me money in the long run.
When I lived in LA, I used to love going there and checking out all the stuff- bought a few items and never had a problem. I wish we had one where I live, I would be there all the time!
And I wasn't the only slave to my nesting instinct. The people I know who used to sit in the bathroom with pornography, now they sit in the bathroom with their IKEA furniture catalogue. ~Chapter 5
