Stick a fork in it....
I don’t care ... I LOVE European TV Commercials ... might need to watch 800 times to find what they’re Advertising, tho
Those are pretty funny. I still wouldn’t buy their junky furniture, but the commercials are funny.
gross
LOL!
“Those are pretty funny. I still wouldn’t buy their junky furniture, but the commercials are funny.”
I love IKEA. I did a lot of shopping in their Bratislava store, and furnished my apartment for very little money.
When I moved to the Philippines, I shipped some of the furniture. All of it breaks down into very flat boxes.
My computer desk is from IKEA.
For the cost, you can not beat it.
Anyway, I loved the commercials.
Now those are funny. I was questioning why they were banned until the last one.
I did my time with disposable press-board furniture, I ain’t going back.
HAHA, that boy found a rocket ship.
Their furniture is perfect for young couples starting out. And, you can tell when they have IKEA furniture as it is lower to the ground than American furniture and you get the feeling you are falling when you try to sit in it. Anyone else notice the difference?
Their bent plywood furniture frames have held up really well in the family room under the assaults of four children, not counting the upholstery. IKEA fabric is garbage.
“Anyone else notice the difference?”
The only couch like item that I bought was a bed that can fold in the middle and make a couch. It was great.
Yes, their furniture is not for lifetime use or heirloom
quality, but for temporary international living, where your not going to keep it long term, it is great.
My computer chair that I shipped to Philippines is perfect and quite normal size.
Most all of their furniture breaks down into very flat boxes, suitable for moving or shipping.
I bought all of my dishes, wine glasses, cookware, bedding, lamps, and electrical supplies at IKEA.
All of it cost a fraction of what I would have paid elsewhere.
It needs better aerodynamics. There's far too much shaking for a reliable rocket.
I think I saw that same one in an airport security scene in the German movie "Nobody Loves Me". The Europeans sure love their metal... devices.
LOL, I had an Ikea platform bed that split in half after 5 months.
It was then that I learned their furniture warranty lasts 45 days from purchase.
I'm a big guy, 6'6" 275 lbs, but come on!
When I examined it closely, whatever constituted the "particles" in the particle board material bore an eerie similarity to ground up newsprint.
“LOL, I had an Ikea platform bed that split in half after 5 months.”
My Ikea bed/couch was heavy steel tube. The part that would sub for box springs was flexible wood, maybe bamboo.
It was quite comfortable, but too heavy to ship.. I left it.
It would take a blowtorch and saw to damage it.
I remember reading a story that said Ikea consumers were polled and sometimg like 70% said that an organized closet was better to them than sex.
The commercials were funny up to the last one.
