[quote=Anonymous]59 and for certain items I buy IKEA. Not major furniture or anything like that, but for storage cubes, some bookshelves, some rugs (for secondary areas like bedroom or basement music room). One key thing to realize/accept is that IKEA's type of KD/assemble yourself furniture is not made to be moved from house to house once assembled. It's fine to use but doesn't have the structural strength that, e.g., solid wood furniture does to be moved without stressing joints, etc. When I bought my first furniture for my first apartment in Seattle in 1980 (!), SOVA, a predecessor to IKEA was the source. I still have a solid wood dining room table from SOVA that's survived 6 moves over 30+ years and is in good shape, but most of the IKEA & similar stuff isn't made to stand that. It's fine for what it is.[/quote]
