IKEA reviews and discussion

IKEA continues to offer high quality furniture basics at very affordable prices with very high level of consistency in the products reliability. The design may not be beautiful but very practical and useful

Mixed feels here...some stuff looooove, but others get discontinued....or they're a hassle to put together. There's a 30 Rock episode about IKEA. So true. I do love the cafeteria, though. And the chocolate snacks.

Ikea is an iconic store that's cool to get lost and browse in, but I'm not personally interested in their furniture. The only thing I have from Ikea that I use is a little dustpan, and I got it because it was only a few dollars. This place is more like an interesting outing for me.

I have purchased several containers for food storage. I love their glass options and found it affordable and stylish. Can be hard if you do not live near one.

Solid, good value choice for basic furniture. I have a new standing desk that I absolutely love. The cafe is great too. Sometimes product quality can be a little lacking.

Ikea is one of those stores, you get what you pay for. When you're tight on money, it will do the trick. The couches are not super comfortable, but they look cute. Ikea is great for glassware & plates. I get lots of compliments on my cocktail glasses! I love that they are partnering with other companies for limited drops.

I love IKEA and their products. Their stores are a lot of fun to walk-around and really try the furniture first-hand without salespeople coming over and trying to force a sale. All of their products are reasonably priced and look great. I like the more minimalist, zen-inspired style and that's easy to find at IKEA. Putting the furniture together a home can be a little bit frustrating at times but I like everything I've bought from them.

I like the store and think that in itself is an experience. It’s always fun looking around there The products are pretty great even though you have to put them together yourself. They are sturdy and long lasting while looking stylish too

Where would the world be without powerhouse IKEA. Have shopped there for years - everything from larger pieces of furniture to smaller pieces of decor. Always visit IKEA before Christmas for a stock up on Scandinavian Christmas decor (like candle lights for the tree), and goodies.

I've bought their storage system and some dressers, as well as random items and meatballs. All a great price. Storage system is particularly great and flexible. I've never had a particularly hard time putting anything together.

I LOVE Ikea! Reliable furniture at a good price point with a very distinct minimalistic aesthetic. I could wander the store for hours. Also? The fact that they sell their frozen Swedish meatballs is amazing. I will say, I don't love the website the most and find it easier to shop in-store, which isn't often as accessible since they don't have warehouses everywhere.

As a Swede, IKEA feels like a homegrown classic! It’s affordable, practical, and has a huge variety of well-designed, functional furniture. The minimalist style fits perfectly with Swedish design sensibilities. While the flat-pack experience can be a bit tedious, the quality is great for the price, and I love that it brings a piece of Swedish culture to homes worldwide.

IKEA for furniture president. IKEA has everything at the best price point. Love love love

Was a little hesitant at first but their items are such high quality for the price! I love their picture frames and they always have something useful or interesting to get! The stores are a maze so you need to really know what you want to get!

Who doesn't love IKEA. Obviously not the greatest quality, but the best affordable, furniture out there. I would only buy storage, lighting, kids and accessories - anything like couches or beds I do not recommend, because they aren't that comfortable and the bed frames don't quite go together that well. My favourite purchases are the plant holders (which are beautiful).

Great selection of stuff and so far everything I've gotten has been high quality but I do think it depends on the product you get. Going to an IKEA is an experience and I love that about it

All of the items that I have from IKEA are pretty solid. My bed frame has held up with no problem for years, my kitchen utensils are still in great condition, and the lamps are design forward as well as affordable. I'll most likely continue purchasing from here when the need arises.

I believe IKEA is almost always a hit-or-miss, but my experience with it has been largely positive. I've owned the HEMNES bed and it's been a delight, however, I do not really enjoy their couches as it doesn't take very long for the seating parts to "deflate".

Not as inexpensive as it use to be. But can still find great deals

I can’t speak of other countries but IKEA presence in UK has been greatly disappointing on several occasions. 1. I had a faulty mattress and they were refusing to exchange it. I have spent a month arguing with different customer service representatives. In the end they gave me a refund, but it was a serious headache. 2. They have advertised a meal as plant based however after eating it we discovered it contained milk. Not only they failed to disclose the allergens, they falsely mislabelled it. No apology was offered despite the consequences it have caused us. 3. On a global scale, in the past IKEA has been caught using illegally harvested wood. Gives you something to think about, considering the other two points I made. Overall IKEA is lacking transparency and is not always what it seems. Buy it if you can’t afford anything better but don’t be easily swayed.
