    No idea what that guy’s talking about. I bought a bunch of furniture from Ikea 15 years ago and all of it is still standing. Even the flimsy-looking chairs.

      Yea, there are a couple tiers of ikea quality, and it’s clearly reflected in the price.

      I spent $600 on a king size tufted headboard and box spring set and it’s been a tank for 10 years. I bought a $400 tv console and it’s similarly been a tank for 12 years.

      I bought a cheap table for my dorm room and it didn’t survive the year.

        I bought a £30 coffee table from IKEA and it lasted me 6 years and 6 house moves. Only reason I got rid of it is because the flat I moved into had the exact same one already

      You expect to coherent points from 4chan? Everyone’s an idiot on that platform. Case and point they are arguing for a completely disprovable point.
