Great starter place for those on a budget!

A really good place to buy affordable furniture. I have bought mattresses, bed frames, desks, dinner tables and numerous other things from here and I love the minimalistic designs that they have. They also have sales on some items throughout the year and so it makes it even a better value

Ikea can be hit or miss but I usually always leave with more than I intended! If purchasing furniture items do a little review research prior as some items are worth more than others as far as quality goes ... quality does not always match the price tag. Shopping is an all day event depending on the size of your store.

I love Ikea. This past weekend I took my significant other for the first time. I was a bit disappointed that the showroom was cautioned off for the most part as they were changing things up. It was majority of the floor. How upsetting as he wanted to experience the whole thing. In all my times of being in an Ikea this has never happened.

I love Ikea! When I lived in Toronto, I lived within 30 minute driving distance from 3 different locations - it was amazing! Now I live near the Ottawa one, and we pass it every day on our way home from work.

Sometimes I even go just to browse and end with hot dog & ice cream.

Most of our furniture is from Ikea, and generally survives a few moves. I even have a bed frame from 2000 still in pretty decent shape that has survived at least 10 moves.

Some people don't like it because it's so mainstream...but I love that you can get one piece from one set, and another piece from another set in the same colour, and KNOW they will match.

I even really like putting the furniture together too.
