cooperlola Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 But then, if you want to shop at IKEA at all, you have to love queueing anyway, don't you? It's probably where queue-oholics go for a fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weedon Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn that most of them still hadn't found out how to erect their flat-pack chairs and beds by the time the doors were opened for them this morning. Tomorrow they will all be back for the bits missing from the things they have bought today. No...I have never bought anything from Ikea, I just retain lots of useless observations.

We have never had the problem of missing or broken bits. The other plus point about Ikea stuff is the assembly booklet - entirely in pictures so very easy to follow.

Clair Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I second that. Never had to return for missing or broken bits, in the UK or in France and never had any problem following the instructions enclosed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
