Great place for furniture and other stuff when you're on a budget. Most items you assemble yourself so know that going in. Most of the employees are very helpful. The best thing to do to avoid an all day shopping experience is to search online at their site for what you want, then go into the store to get it. And how do you navigate the maze of this huge store when you wanna get in and out quickly? Well, this is not scientific by any means...but when you have your items and you're on the bottom level only take left turns. If you go right...you're moving away from the exit to the register area. Like I said, works for me so don't hold me to it! But for those that like the all day experience, you could shop a little then eat a little at the store cafe. You could literally be in the store all day! All in all, a nice place with great finds.
