Ikea is Ikea. By definition if you have heard of the place a few things come to mind: swedish meatballs, inexpensive furniture, swedish people, DIY putting things together. All of these are true - and definitely tend to fit into most of what makes IKEA what it is. However, another group of people will be curious about things that are baby/kid friendly, general food options, etc. I'm happy to say that in general Ikea is pretty family-friendly. The family changing areas on every floor are reasonably accommodating and provide a useful family space - something until recently wasn't much of a concern, but is now being much more appreciated. I also see kids crawling and playing in every part of the kids playroom-type areas and zoning out watching tv in the cafeteria, so I guess I'd probably also assume IKEA is reasonably toddler-friendly on that basis as well. I'm going to skip on the groceries being things most people shouldn't ever consider purchasing (seriously unhealthy and/or garbage mostly) and/or that one of the family bathrooms had a bit of a noticeably smell to it, and say that overall it seems to be more kid-friendly than I had noticed before. Also, their high end products tend to not mirror their cheap products and have very different experiences. read more

If you want to have sleek, modern, and minimalist design that doesn't break your wallet, this is the store for you! (Minus that they didn't have their meatballs in stock I would've rated 5 stars) read more

My furniture was scheduled to be delivered today. I spent the entire day at home waiting for it, never heard a word. Then mid-afternoon I get a notification that my furniture couldn't be delivered because I was not home. Again, I never got a call or text, my apartment was never buzzed. I called customer service, the only solution I was offered was to have it delivered 2 days from now. This means I'll be sleeping on the floor because I already removed my old bed to make room for the new one. I was not offered any sort of compensation or a refund on the $50 I paid for this delivery. Frustrating experience, disappointing customer service. I do not recommend. read more

This was the first IKEA built in the Midwest and it is still one of the biggest and busiest. IKEA has become an iconic brand in America and with good reason. You can find all sorts of cool put-it-together-yourself furniture here at reasonable prices. And the value is not just limited to the furniture. They sell just about everything you would need in your home. Light bulbs. Area rugs. Potted plants. They have all sorts of kitchen/bathroom items you never thought you needed. Definitely plan to spend a couple hours here and to leave with your wallet about $300 lighter. I especially love the cafe on the 3rd floor. Good food (a lot of hard-to-find Scandinavian items) at dirt cheap prices. read more

I love Ikea! It's such a great place to get home decor. I love how every year they make little changes to their products to keep up with whats trending now. Every time i go there, i can spend a good two hours browsing around and getting ideas on how to decorate and set up the rooms in my home. Of course, not everything there is durable and long lasting. One thing i definitely won't recommend is their mattress. I feel like buying a higher quality mattress can make one's sleep more comfortably. After all, that's one of the things we spend a lot of time on. I really like their great varieties of little decors like mirrors, lamps, chairs, tables, accessories, and especially their plant section on the first floor. In case any one is looking for some christmas decors, they have them out already as well. Not so much Hallloween stuff though. I also like their food court. It has a bit of everything and cant beat the prices! Card holders also get a free coffee per visit. I've went and gotten their breakfast before, (bacon, egg and sausage ) and it wasnt too bad for the price. The employees there are always very helpful and friendly. The ones that are at their station usually can provide you with an answer if you have a question. Sometimes they even give good recommendations as to what can go with what and which item will look better with which. During weekends, i always try to get their a little earlier due to the massive amounts of people that go there. Parking lots are usually filled up pretty quickly and there are tons of people with shopping carts all over the place. But if you ever need some ideas, ikea is always a good place to stop by! read more

While Ikea has a large selection of items and is a Swedish company, this specific location has been more than unhelpful on several occassions. Most people come to a place like this to view the items (touch, feel, sit on) and when I arrived, the items I came to see were up on a large platform and not on the floor. I asked 3 people working at the store if there was a sample I could see upclose. Two of the workers basically brushed me off and the third did actually walk over and view the item, but said it was screwed in and that was it. I told them I wanted to speak to a manager because I would not have taken the time to drive to the warehouse, if I just wanted to take a box home. Finally, after over an hour of procrastination by the employees, a manager came by and let me know a chair recently had been placed upstairs on the 3rd floor (not the 1st where all the outdoor chairs were) since people had wanted to actually see it. It was a waste of time and energy... I should have ordered online, but glad I didnt and ended up not purchasing the item upon inspection. read more

IKEA - Why would you display an item up high when you want customers to purchase it? - Home Decor Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

I love this store! There is always something cool or random to buy in addition to the things I need. Some stuff holds up better than other stuff. My bedroom furniture is all holding up fine. (well if you ignore the inconvenience of the bed including all of the necessary parts. But who needs slats, the mattress is fine resting on the floor.) However my dining room chairs couldn't even make it 2 years. My parents get so annoyed when they are putting some Ikea set together and discover the box is missing a piece. Yes, Ikea will give you a replacement piece, but you do have to drive back to the store to get it. read more

I placed an order on a Saturday and after 9 pm that night I received a text that delivery was scheduled for the next day, Sunday. I never agreed to that time. I tried to call to change the order using the number they gave me and was told I couldn't change it. For some unknown reason the delivery requires an adult to be present and sign for it. Neither the people on the phone nor the people in the chat were helpful. When I placed the order they only wanted a cell number. Had I been able to give my home number I might have talked to a human being and this problem wouldn't have occurred. The woman in the chat wanted me to call the third party carrier. This is a really good reason not to order from them again. I sure hope the products I ordered are better than the service. read more

Ikea Schaumburg is a solid 3 stars. Don't get me wrong, I love Ikea, but it is always a task just to go to Ikea. Cons: -The lines are always LONGGGGG, no matter what line you are in! The returns area takes forever to get your number called. I have been there many times, and have caught employees many times standing there having conversations with each other while many people are waiting to get their number called. -The check out lines could use more cashiers. -They should have an employee on each side of the loading spots to help people load or watch people's purchases while people that arrived alone run to get their car. I have seen, many times, people that came alone trying to load their heavy/large purchases alone, myself included. Not only that, I always have damn near a heart attack leaving my purchase to run to pull my car up. Pros: -I like the kiddie area. The girls there are on top of admitting kids and releasing them. I feel that their system is quite secure and feel at ease with dropping my daughter off there. -The bathrooms are always decently cleaned. -Ikea's return policy is **thumbs up** -Who doesn't love Ikea's meatballs? -Have you tried that marzipan?! read more

I returned some items over a month ago and the credit was never returned to my card. I have called several times with a hold time no less than 30 minutes each time. I did not hold onto the receipt. The first three people who I finally could get on the phone used this as their excuse not to help me. The fourth person I spoke to (after a 52 minute wait) was willing to put forth the minuscule amount of effort it took to look up the receipt for me. She emailed me a copy. After getting her on the line the whole process took less than 5 minutes. Why would the first three people not do this? Laziness? Incompetence? Several times the person who answered the phone would say that they were transferring me to to someone who could help but then just hang up on me. The most immature and unhelpful person I spoke to was Kiersten Holloway. read more

I like visiting an IKEA store because there is just so much stuff here! So many choices--it can be very overwhelming, especially navigating through the store. Finding the bathroom can be challenging! Thankfully there are store employees around and they are very helpful in helping you find things. i recommend signing up for the IKEA family discount. There was a kiosk out in front. Its free to sign up and you get discounts on certain things in the store labeled IKEA family discount only. A great place to buy furniture or any household goods! read more

First of all, let me review the food. I know it's not gourmet, but it's super cheap. Where else are you going to get 10 Swedish meatballs for $5.99 with a side of mashed potatoes and lingonberry jam? (Are lingonberries ballistically similar to grapes?) I usually get chicken strips with fries because why not. They also serve ribs, which always look great but I'm too scared of the mess I'll make. The furniture is great for your first apartment. The quality of the material is not the best, but you're not paying that much, so it's not a big deal. I don't know why people think the instructions are hard to follow - I think they're okay. If you live in Chicago, your apartment won't look very unique next to all the other IKEA shoppers. I love the storeroom. It's fun playing house like in (500) Days of Summer. read more

Omg, bought too many things I can never and will not be trying pronounce: I blame the special coupon I got in the mail from our last move that gave me $25 off a $250 purchase, love it, used it, sang a little song of happiness at the checkout. I also signed us up for Ikea family, scored a shiny orange card, free coffee for me, free fro-yo for him and managed to get out of there in about an hour, in-budget, with furniture, toys for the puppy and cinnamon rolls- so proud! Need Stuffed toys for the puppy to maul? They have hedgehogs, rabbits, foxes, rats, other dogs... lots of critters for your furry baby, like $2.99 cheap. Spoiled Beagle now has a veritable zoo to choose from for working out his destructive impulse issues. A big oblong rug for the bathroom for $2? With non-skid plastic attached? Sold. A wal-mountable magnetic strip for knives? $8.00! Awesome. We needed more bookshelves, I bought two ($25 each) and will now need to buy more books... I love that the shelves are narrow in depth, perfect for perusing paperbacks and softcovers that I won't have to stack two or three deep. Also Needed: Flatfiles for our art, prints, handmade books and prototypes- unbeatable prices for those here, especially when you compare what any of the specialty art stores are charging. Impulse: There was a super-duper cute, black and white, upholstered chair on clearance ($30!) that had the coolest Keith Haring print- he// yes, I quickly managed to squeeze that on top of a loaded standard shopping card so it looked like I was ready to challenge other shoppers to a joust. This was handy in clearing the crowd going up and down the aisles and elevator- I recommend it. TMI Confession: My underwear seems to be increasingly littered thru out the bedroom and bathroom (gross, I am so embarrassed) ever since Boyfriend moved the dresser and placed it in the living room... and as pimp as Boyfriend thinks this looks... I need to manage this better and organize- I bought a tall but narrow upright dresser in pretty white with drawers for my drawers! Fits in my closet, has fuzzy lining inside and It has a mirror on top- I like it a lot, Especially now that our guests and neighbors won't have to side-step away from my panties. That was indeed my primary goal in visiting IKEA. Kudos to my guy for tolerating the experience, My Boyfriend has a hate/love perspective on Ikea- I say hate because he hates shopping, and shopping on multiple floors is more than he can possible tolerate without snapping. So what did I do? Buy him a massage, a bottle of Jack Daniels, and take advantage of him. I know, torture, right? I'm the bestest girlfriend ever. Feel free to follow this example as He's far too hungover and full of fro-yo and cinnamon rolls to fight me on this now. S'cool- I can watch the adorable movie 500 Days of Summer for Ikea-envy-cutesy fill. Go early if you must go on a weekend- preferably when the weather is extreme- rain or serious searing heat- do not wait, you will have to park in Canada, fight thru crowds, be disappointed that stuff you need is not in stock and then wait forever in line only to hike try the epic parking lot back to Canada where Sarah Palin will watch you but not help to load heavy boxes that may or may not fit in your vehicle. My only disappointment is that IKEA no longer carries the peppermint foot cream that makes for splendid foot rubs. Ikea needs to bring that back! Foot rubs are what girls dream of gentlemen- you will score megapoints for a foot rub! Sans foot rub, I am going to now make cocktails and assemble furniture. read more

This Friday I was at the IKEA Schaumburg Crayfish Fest. What a blast. There was music, singing, dancing, drinking and of course lots of eating. As soon a a tray of crayfish was finished a new one was brought out. People were eating so many crayfish that they had to go downstairs to their food store and get more. Take a look at Adam at IKEA enjoying himself: http://chicagobuffets.ning.com/photo Todor Krecu http://hotfortea.yelp.com read more

IKEA may not be the appropriate place to furnish a new house, but for setting up an condo, it's great. For under a grand, I got a bed, mattress, desk, linens, lights, and outfitted my bathroom. Even more important than the low cost, everything fit in my Honda CRV along with my computer, clothes, and two passengers. It's pretty much the perfect stop for a semi-permanent move. Another plus is their efficient return service. After moving in I realized I had gotten a twin sized mattress instead of a full. After sweating it out for a week, I stuffed the mattress into a garbage bag and drove it over to IKEA. I was promptly refunded via gift card which went straight to getting the right sized mattress. I was worried that they wouldn't take back the opened item, but everything worked out in the end. One of my gripes is one they can't help, but still affects the experience...that place gets CROWDED. I was lucky to get most of my stuff during the day on Friday, but returning things on the weekend was a hassle. Also, be sure to check your receipt carefully when you're done. I got rung up twice for my full sized mattress, and was asked to just pay for it and get refunded for one of them. Not the ideal solution (which initially doubled the charge to my card), but at least the refund went through. read more

This is my first experience at an IKEA, for years I dreamed about visiting one and I wasn't disappointed. This place is HUGE, 3 floors full of merchandise and people! If you have troubles walking a lot I recommend getting a wheelchair at the door or customer service by the registers. I've done this twice and they are very kind. The only downside to this is you have to use the elevators which are crazy slow and people think they should use the elevators if they have carts, which you shouldn't since there are cart escalators. I have purchased several items here and the quality is far better than what you'd get at Walmart or a similar discount box store. I love the kitchen items like my cutting boards, glassware, or utensils. My dining table is the cheap tarendo $39 special and it looks better than most cheap furniture you'll find. Even my $12 chairs are comfortable. Why doesn't IKEA get a 5 star from me? It's crazy busy and can be hard to find things. You looking for spray bottles for your kitchen? Well they aren't with the cleaning supplies (2nd floor bathroom section) nor are they on the 3rd floor with the kitchen stuff. They are downstairs in the corner near the flowers. Also they NEED more cashiers on the weekend. They have got to know that they'll have lines a mile long and yet they don't have all the registers open. Finally I feel your pain if you ever need to return something here. You take a ticket and you sit and wait. I've done this twice and each time had to wait 20+ minutes. Although the employees are nice and helped me as fast as they could. (it doesn't help matters that EVERYONE is returning their dressers lately because ya know... they can't use a mall mount but that is a rant for another day!) All in all I recommend it and when it comes times to find parking... may the odds be ever in your favor! read more

When everyone gives a place a high review, there most certainly is a great REASON!! For IKEA, it dominates for one great reason, they make shopping for furniture convenient, price efficient and fun! From viewing the furniture to picking it up at the warehouse, to loading it into your car. They have the process ON POINT. Also if you get a little hungry, try their meatballs! read more

Hail to Sweden! Meatballs. Cream sauce. Mashed potatoes. Lingonberries. Couches. Beds. Chairs. Fridges. Coffee. Chocolate tartes. Cured Salmon. Apple cake. Schnapps glasses. Whisks. Tubes of fish-product. Oven hoods. Lingonberries. My ode to IKEA. read more

The only reason I wanted to come to Ikea from Wisconsin is for their swedish meatballs lol. They are that good. The pairing of meatball, cream sauce, lingoberries and mashed potatoes is divine all mixed together. Also got the cream cake and blueberry raspberry smoothie which is basically like a Naked juice in a juice box. The cream cake was very nom-nom-tastic with a layer of cream, strawberry jam and vanilla cake. You better believe I bought all the fixins to make the meatballs at home as well as some drinking cups and a cool glass pitcher. You can really find anything here at reasonable prices. read more

IKEA - Swedish meatballs and a cream cake - Home Decor Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

This process to day was really frustrating. Wanting to purchase a 3 drawer dresser and night stand. There was only 1 dresser in stock, or that's what their computer was saying. No employee could really tell u tho. They had 3 of the same dresser on display, which they would not sell. So rediculous! So we were about to walk out empty handed, I spotted one in the "as is" area which looked just fine. Plus is was at a good discount. Yay for us. But why did it have to be so much work going from 1 floor to another because they can't seem to communicate within the store. Glad I found it, but not in a rush to come back read more

So my 5 stars is because I love this store. It's one of those places you just have to plan on visiting and browsing for hours..... my gripe is I hate the floor plan. I really believe it's a safety hazard. In case of an emergency in this store I believe people would get hurt. Don't know who designed this layout but it's terrible. The worst is the boilingbook location it's like a maze. I really avoid that location at all cost. So if I were to rate floor plan it would definitely be a 0 I hope ikea will re evaluate this soon. Otherwise love the merchandise and usually decent on price point for most things read more

What a terrible experience. I don't think It would have been possible for the servers at the food court to care less about their jobs. We stood in line for 45 minutes (there were only about 40 people in line). When we finally got to the front, they closed breakfast down right in front of us. All the food was prepared ahead of time. There were 3 people serving. I have no idea how they were able to do such a poor job. Don't waste your time stopping by the food court. read more

HOLY-BIGGEST-STORE-IN-ILLINOIS, Batman! You need a full Saturday or Sunday to make it through Ikea. They have everything. As you will notice, they have a restaurant that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner as you will need to eat all 3 meals on site if you want to actually see everything in this place. The idea behind IKEA, is- you put it together yourself. A lot of pressboard and almost everything is "assembly-required" but you can really get some cool items here. Stuff for every room of the house from the kitchen to the bedroom. Decor for throughout. Nice gifts (such as blankets and candles). And office furniture to boot. The quality is fine. It does the trick. Most of my office is IKEA furniture. If you are just starting out, as I was about 3 years ago, you can find a lot of what you need for a starter home at IKEA. You will upgrade one day, but it will suffice for a while. Funds are tight for everyone when you are in your first home or apartment. Take the escalators all the way to the 3rd floor, walk the entire perimeter (restaurant is in the center of the store), stop for food and water when you need to, and work your way down to the first floor. There is a mechanism that will take your cart full of items....and believe me, it will be FULL....down while you ride next to it on the escalator. There is an "AS IS" section where you can find miscellaneous shelving for existing pieces you may have at home, discounted/slightly damaged furniture and soft serve ice cream on the first floor snack bar/cafe. It a big place, and the great prices ($1.00 for this, $5.00 for that) will add up quickly, so be careful. You'll have fun for sure, but want to go home to rest when you have completed your shopping experience. read more

I would much rather go to the IKEA in Bolingbrook, because it's set up logically. This octagonal-monolith makes almost no sense in terms of flow. People don't understand how to walk properly once they step foot into an IKEA. I feel bad for all of the workers. When I was receiving assistance picking out a bed, a large family came and interrupted us. I can't imagine putting up with that all day. But hey, my jaw still hurts from being dumbfounded at how many great things I can buy to make my house cooler. Also walking around wondering WHAT DINING SET DESCRIBES ME AS A PERSON? I love IKEA. read more

Good quality furniture at a reasonable price. You have to assemble most of it yourself. But that's okay, because the instructions are clear and concise. I've purchased shelving, a printer stand, a desk, an entertainment center cabinet, lamps, and meatballs here. The meatballs don't require assembly, unless you count making the sauce as assembly. And the meatballs are outstanding. The store is laid out nicely and very clean. The system for selecting and paying for your item is efficient. Bring some help along if you can't lift heavy items. Bring a larger car or truck if you're buying larger furniture. The store does offer "pick and deliver" where they will select your item from the warehouse and deliver it to you. The Swedes have furniture buying down to a science, and I say GOOD for the Swedes! And they make a helluva meatball too! read more

Love IKEA! I don't see how people can't love it there. If you've never been to one I can see how it would be extremely overwhelming. It's HUGE. I've been to a few different IKEA stores and I'd say that this is one of the best if not the best I've been to. There are three floors but you probably won't do much on the second floor. The third floor has all of the rooms with some things you have to pick up downstairs (furniture) and smaller items you can grab off the shelves to purchase. The restaurant is good too and really nice if you're spending a long time at the store. I used to go here as a day trip (I live about two hours away, but now there is one closer to me) and would usually eat there. One thing to always remember is check to make sure you have all of the packages you need for any furniture you purchase. When you are in the pick up area if your box says something like BOX 1 of 2 you need to get, obviously, both packages. However if you don't know to look for it it's easy to miss. read more

Three stars for the store, the small this and that purchases that you make, bought a nice little cart that I used for produce, can't fault some of the grocery items, coffee beans are a good buy as well as some of the teas. I bought some inexpensive ponchos that I threw in the car to have on hand for going to outdoor concerts or baseball games. Beyond that, the cliche I'd give it less than one star is proper. I made the mistake of thinking I could do a small, modern, and reasonably priced kitchen from Ikea. All I can say is I was sadly mistaken. First trip out I found a selection of cabinets, counter, sink and faucet that I thought would work. After being switched from one sales person to another because her shift was over, I had to start the whole process over. Then I was told about the measuring service, if you buy the kitchen it gets credited back to you. Fair enough, even though I've done many a kitchen project as a property manager, my concern was if something isn't right there will be finger pointing. Since I really needed the kitchen I decided having them measure is a no brainer. I also was told to wait on picking out things until I met with the designer/measurer as what I want may not work and something else will be selected. Well, why not pick out a couple of options so I don't have to drive back to Schaumburg, no she said best to come back, okay visit two on the horizon. Measuring done, I go back, there's the picking out of the items. Again I start with one person that for some reason doesn't have the time only to get another person and start the process over. This kitchen is for a rental unit and needs to get done, hell if it were for me I'd just do take out. So I order things up, and think I'm set. Remember I need this kitchen, my tenant has been beyond patient. As the stars would not align, what I wanted was going to be delayed. So I went back, visit three. By this time I'm fuming, I live south of the loop, I have no desire to keep driving up to Schaumburg to waste time and gas. So I press on about delivery time and details, it's hear that I find out that my stuff is going to be in 63+ boxes, all the cabinets, nuts and bolts and whatnot. Here's where I lost it, I was told it was my responsibility to make sure everything was delivered, so if I got an empty box, my problem. Or a box short a couple of rails, again my problem. I would need to drive back up to Schaumburg to get it. I then said, well if I have to make sure it's all there is the driver going to wait for me to count it all out. I was told, no, the driver is on a schedule. That did it, I know all the jokes about missing pieces or enough pieces but the wrong pieces. I've bought and assembled things from Ikea before. I ended up cancelling the whole thing and eating the fee for the measuring, even at that loss, I knew I was still ahead considering what time I'd have into it to adjust missing or wrong parts. Just don't do it! A deal isn't always a deal, matter of fact the kitchen I ended putting together from a competitor is one of better quality, less price and less hassle. Fair warning, for a kitchen, don't do it! read more

Witnessed an extremely unprofessional customer service at Schaumburg ikea today. Customer paid thousands of dollars for full kitchen, most of the items were delivered except 8 small items (couple of hundreds dollars) which was acknowledged by ikea that were missing from delivery. Customer was told to come to store to pick them up on the phone, when arrived customer service refused to give the items, told to "go back and deal with Fedex ". Customer asked for money back for missing items, customer service response was "unless you return the items!! (they acknowledged not delivered) we can not give your money back". How can a person return items not delivered in the first place? Manager could not read their own receipt correctly and accused customer not paying for them. Asked the manager if they routinely send "unpaid items" to people with Fedex? No answer. By the way receipt clearly shows all paid, at the bottom of the receipt, which manager missed. This could and should have been handled by refunding the very small amount of money back to customer. Instead of making customer wait 2 hours and unnecessarily escalating the situation. Managers should be better at handling customers who's job site was behind schedule due to missing items, had to be on the phone for 52 min, and had to drive to store and wait 2 hours on the customer service desk, lied to, falsely accused of not paying and police called when customer insists on getting a refund... Nice police officer was asked if someone takes money from you and not give you the merchandise (ikea acknowledged items not delivered) isn't called "theft"? Police acknowledged but recommended this is a civil matter and contact an attorney. IKEA, is that what you want? Involve an attorney? Taken to court? Just apologize and refund the small amount to customer. By the way FYI this is a business customer, a company does renovation, interior design that ikea loosing as a customer. I hope your sales department is paying attention. I was just there to get a tv stand I'm not involved with that order. Well I am not buying it from ikea for sure. read more

It's not very close to me, but coming once in awhile to check it out is nice. Prices are fair, but you have to assemble everything yourself. Quality, of course, is not the best, but it'll do. Tried out their food and it wasn't too bad. Had the big breakfast and cinnamon roll. Surprisingly, the cinnamon roll was warm and soft. Don't expect healthy food since most of everything was deep fried except the eggs in the big breakfast (french toast, potatoes and bacon.) read more

Do you like cold European-style oppression reminiscent of Cold War Soviet Union or 1930's Germany? We'll do I have a store for you. I get it. They want us lazy Americans to be less dependent, but come on. Packed in like farm animals, there are 30 gloriously long check outs to choose from - of course only 3 are ever in service so get ready to wait for at least 20 minutes. I'm leaving this review as I wait! It's all about efficiency- customer service be damned - but hey the ice cream downstairs is just a buck! And if you want to cart out your goods to your car - often heavy as it IS a furniture store - good luck there pal.

IKEA - Broken sofa delivered. - Home Decor Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

OMG! The most unfriendly, apathetic, unmotivated, customer care-less employees I have ever encountered in a retail setting. You don't believe me? Go there an ask someone fo help, and see if you don't get an eye roll or exasperation. They must purposely try and hire the most terrible human beings they can find to work there. Please do not shop there! read more

Ikea is fine. Their delivery service, XPO logistics is the WORST freight company out there. They are rude, they have "truck issues," and they do not take responsibility for their faults. If Ikea begins to use a different service, I will order from them again. But otherwise, I am not willing to deal with their deliver service. read more

Who would have thought this place would be sweet and memorable for a first date. J took me here as part of our first Chicago date. I still have the little paper measuring ruler he drew a heart on. Moving on after I probably made others ill. I like this location a lot better then the Mpls one. It's a lot roomier and doesn't feel as clausterphobic and like I'm being herded through a maze. I enjoy the layout. Have purchased a lot of fun household decorative things here. Some practical and some not so practical. Love their lighting section and always stock up on the cheap batteries. Picture frames, candles- anyone need some tea lights? I have plenty. Great values on kitchen things and decorative stuff. Parking is kind of a pain, but I don't mind walking. read more

Do yourself a favor and never come here on a weekend! I generally go to the Bolingbrook store but we were up here and needed to look for bed frames. NO parking and an absolute madhouse inside! I didn't find what I wanted so we didn't have to navigate checkout, ; every line was at least ten people long! Madness. Seriously, don't go on a Saturday! Save yourself some sanity. read more

The food here is like cafeteria food only reason I gave them 3 stars is because you can buy beer from here! The chocolate is good too! read more
