I love Ikea. Sure the quality of the furniture isn't fantastic (I'm sure we all have a Billy bookcase, sagging with books and crap) but they are able to give people decent looking items for a decent price.
Today I had the fun task of returning a whole bunch of large picture frames. Being unable to trick anyone into coming with me, I was tasked with driving to the loading area and try to heave all the frames onto a cart alone. An Ikea associate was nice enough to help me and watch the cart while I parked.
I got to the returns area which was pretty comfortable and moved quite quickly. I was happy about that.
Went to the restaurant to get breakfast, but discovered that the scrambled eggs had milk in them. No breakfast for me.
Went through the Marketplace and got a bunch of junk for my house and did the self checkout, which was quick, easy, but didn't take cash like other self checkouts.
Overall a decent experience, 1/4 of the associates I spoke to was super nice, and the other three were reasonably polite.
I will go back again, but only because at this juncture, I can't afford anything else.
