but, it's still a decent store. if only they offered durability in addition to all their other strong points.

i agree....compared to the alternatives...puffy couches like george costanza's down filled jacket.....living room tables that have a glass top on a concrete ball or pyramid...ikea at least is designed furniture.....if all stores concentrated on design as much as ikea i would be happy.
