Sort of puzzles me why people want to go there anyway.
My trips to Ikea have usually been pretty awful experiences, the store always seems to be full of loud horrid people with louder more horrid kids who are charging around the place completely out of control, climbing on all the furniture and jumping on the chairs/suites etc & lets face it, the stuff isnt really of a standard where it will stand up to too much of that sort of abuse.
