“I love Ikea. I was there last night buying a lamp I needed. Also, eating a hot dog. Their food is very good.”
- No doubt IKEA is a great place to shop.
On the other hand, even tough I’m Swedish I have to admit some of their stuff is of disappointing quality, but all the same most of their products offer great value.
I hope IKEA will continue trying to revolutionize the building industry. So much to be done. In many countries housing costs are ridiculous.
Times are changing. People no longer buy a furniture set with the thought of bequeathing it to their heirs. Now days, such sentiments seem rather quaint. First of all, are YOU going to like that piece of furniture enough so that it lasts the rest of your life? Second, do you really think your kids or grandkids would appreciate it?
We’ve bought a few Ikea pieces and although they’re not overbuilt, their excellent designs combined with just enough quality leads to a smart purchase.
