Yeah well so what if:
Some of you are thinking IKEA eeeeewww I can't stand going to that place it's so crowded. Well you know what? Keep it to yourself. You're the same people that complain about the taste of beer. You're missing the point entirely!
I've seen what less than 150 bucks, some God-Crafted Swedish Designers and a blond wife can do. They took a few containers, a couple of book shelves, some furniture i didn't even know existed and ushered in a new era.
For that I will GLADLY put up with a screaming child, confused patron that hasn't grasped how the show-room system works or employees that just don't care. There's a sleek apt back home that has a few square feet that i just HAVE TO MAKE USE OF SOME HOW and hot meat balls and mash waiting for me downstairs in the cafeteria.
I've been to IKEA, Brooklyn 3 times in one week.
The staff recognize my wife and I; they greet us with warm welcomes like, "OOOOoohh I know you two know what you're doing...and BACK AGAIN!"
Believe in the power of a well design 375sq/ft loft.
Believe in the power of rear wheel swiveling shopping carts.
Utter words like Karsten, Summera and Stolmen with giddy delight.
Can't envision my world without a shelving system with a height adjustable from 82 5/8-129 7/8", which allows you to utilize the entire ceiling height. God bless you Ehlén Johansson.
Can transport, unpack and put together a room of flat-packed furniture faster than you can bake a cake.
At no point think to myself ok let's get everything we need now so we don't have to come back.
