I've been to Ikea in Charlotte multiple times to buy furniture and have had a pleasant experience each time. IKEA has amazing showrooms to display all of their furniture, and the warehouse is very well organized so that finding your furniture is very easy. I usually end up spending more than I intend every time I come here, so be careful! So far, I've bought two dressers, a coffee table, and a side table as far as furniture. The tables were really cheap ($10-$15), but they get the job done. The four drawer Malm dresser is very sturdy and was easy to assemble in a little over an hour. They updated the Malm dresser to be much sturdier because the other five drawer Malm dresser we bought last year was wobbly and will fall over if all of the drawers are open at once. Overall, the furniture is good and affordable if you're on a budget. I'd also recommend trying some the food. I also buy a bag of frozen Swedish meatballs. They're delicious and reasonably priced. You also can't beat the $1 cinnamon rolls as well, a must try for sure.
