Agreed. My wife and I went to the one in Round Rock once and agreed that there was no need for us to ever go back there.

And yes, we did try the meatballs and they were well below average.

I dont like their products, just not my taste. But, it's a good concept. And it works, all over the world.

San Antonio will not have to worry about IKEA coming because the city is too small and poor to support IKEA and thats what all SAN ANTONIO will ever have is whataburgers and taca cabana.

I though Ikea's products were okay, it's just the experience of going there that I didn't like. The place is a zoo, and the whole maze concept just made it a stressful shopping experience.

I've never been to IKEA, and the one in Portland is close to where I work. I have only heard good things from everyone who has talked about it. I guess they vary allot by management and location.

The only thing I hate about it is that there is only one way to get to the checkouts and that's to walk through the entire store in linear fashion. I've gone to buy some kitchen supplies that were right past the entrance and had to walk the entire store to pay. That's just retarded.

You can cut pretty much directly to the checkouts at both the one in Round Rock and the one outside of Houston. Just look at the maps, or go in the register side and walk back through.

The only one I've been to is the one in Frisco. I asked this dude who worked there how to get to the checkouts and he said you have to walk the store. Could have just been f'n with me though.

There was a rumor a couple years back that IKEA was looking to build near the Palladium. eh

Do you mean the one in Emeryville, CA (Bay Area, near San Francisco)? Or is there a place called Frisco I don't know about?

If it's the former, the dude you asked lied to you.

As for IKEA... it's good for some things. I'd never want to furnish an entire house there, but I like a lot of their kitchen stuff and I love the bookcases I bought a couple years ago.

Exactly what I didn't like.

Who was the person on here that bought a chair for their nephew that was 2 or something and it was $75? :lmao

That store is for people like CC.

I bet it was a chick.

OK, I'll say what others here refuse to.

IKEA discriminates against fat and lazy people. If you cannot walk a few miles, then stay away.

If you actually by some furniture and put it together (CORRECTLY) you fingd out that there stuff is really durable.


you must be one of those metrosexuals that cant' even change your wife car oil.

I went to the IKEA in Portland and got a couple of things. I'm happy with what I bought.

On a side note, a friend of mine works at that location and said that the Portland store is doing better than any other in the country.

I adore my IKEA bed and am seriously contemplating making the trip back up to buy a new duvet because their online selection effing sucks (as far as textiles).

They're weird lamps and small furniture are pretty cool, but like it was mentioned above, furnishing a whole house with their stuff? You'll be STILL putting together their crap after the 30 year mortgage is paid.

true dat. Going to Ikea is clearly an event. No in and out going on here. I like their kitchen stuff. You can find some nifty gadget there. The last thing I got there were some ceramic spice grinders for a measly $5 a pop. That's pretty damn good for ceramic and ceramic is the best way to go as far as grinders go. $.02
