Ikea has singlehandedly furnished my first home, and I love it! Although it is a lot of work to put together some of the furniture, it is so rewarding when you finish, wipe off all your nasty sweat, and bask in the glory of all that is Ikea. Everything is so modern and cool here. I love spending the day with my husband here, browsing through the little rooms they have put together and lusting after paintings and such that would never match anything in our home. We take a lot of pride in our home and would never accept cheap looking furniture, however, there has been a time or two when the furniture was bent or scratched and we didn't realized it until it was all put together. Overall, I feel like the prices here are awesome for what you get. We recently bought and assembled the Hemnes TV unit, and it may be my very favorite item I have bought here to date. We have more to do to the house, and we will continue to head straight to Ikea to do the job.
