You`ll all be there spending too much of your hard earned money.

IKEA uses cheap chip-boards and just sprays them over and you then have to assemble the furniture yourself so I can't accept that their goods are "cheap"! People should shop around and they'll be in for a pleasant surprise.


haha its called D.I.Y. (Do It Yourself). How would your transport a fully made bed or a wardrobe from Ikea to your home???

Yeah right - but if your on a tight budget (like the real world) and refurnishing your house then Ikea is like a god send.

And dont tell me you dont find their market hall (before the checkout) addictive!!!! lol

As for the market hall, I don't know I haven't been to IKEA in Cyprus, I don't even know where it is. :)

Gee, I don't know snake... hmm I wonder how every other furniture maker sells assembled furniture and they somehow miraculously appear in customer's homes!

You're such a sucker for punishment snake!

No assembly + no delivery + junk chip-boards + basic characterless designs = multi-million dollar business fooling the fools.

great tipical of this site you reply with not a answer but another question grrr if you had been to an ikea in any country you would be as blind as a bat to miss market hall / food hall so you are talking out of your arse try talking about something you no about .
ikea sell many things not only flat packs they sell many small items that are cheap and good quality do you think the company would be as big as it is without being good quality .
you have never been in an ikea and have never bought anything from then you are just a wum :twisted:

Hey Bozo, when I went to an IKEA last it was probably 2000 in Perth Australia and they had some closed off area full of little yellow balls for kids to play in but no such thing as a "market hall".

You were stupid to ask that question in the first place because how else could anyone know so much about their furniture, methods, etc?

IKEA is big because idiots like you, who easily jump to conclusions, exist and has NOTHING to do with quality I assure you.

Luckily, IKEA are online so let’s have a look at this “improved” quality product line of 2007…

http://www.ikea.com/ms/en_US/

Here’s one of my favorite products!
http://www.ikea.com/webapp/wcs/stores/s ... r=10109981

Out they go at $329!

Check this out…
http://www.ikea.com/webapp/wcs/stores/s ... r=70033525

You just can’t beat the quality baby!

Check this out…
http://www.ikea.com/webapp/wcs/stores/s ... =S99838972

Now that’s what I call a bed!

Want a great quality stand for your LCD TV…
http://www.ikea.com/webapp/wcs/stores/s ... r=47298609

Out they go at $79!

Oh well, it looks like IKEA is still selling what it was selling 5 years ago… characterless square or rectangular chip-board panels although these days they seem to have done away with the colourful lacquers! Idiot!
