[quote=Anonymous]Ikea is much better quality in Sweden. The stuff here is both inexpensive and cheap. We bought all our glasses their incollege, and after breaking a couple, we learned our lesson. Their glass shatters into glass dust that is a huge PITA to clean up. The rest of their kitchen stuff wears out very quickly. I've bought some very decent wool rugs there, but they don't seem to have any good ones lately. We've got several Billy bookshelves, and recently graduated our TV to a "real" console table and retired the Ikea one. A lot of their furniture is a very nice size for small DC apartments and houses. There's no real catch to Ikea: it's very inexpensive, sometimes easy and sometimes hard to assemble, made in China, and doesn't last or hold up well. You get what you pay for. [/quote]
