Awful bed

IKEA in a nutshell. Simple to assemble, awful to keep. Terrible results.

    It was not IKEA actually. Fancy furniture store.

    I still maintain that IKEA is like that though. 😔

    Poor quality? Yeah. It’s cardboard, mostly.

    Their hallmark isn’t quality though, it’s affordability.

    Agreed, and I'm effing done with it. I'd rather pay more for something I do want than less for something I don't want.

    I can get behind this, sustainability.

    Growing up we had a sofa from the 1800s. Nothing from IKEA will last that long.
