My absolute favorite place to come if I have nothing else to do for the day!…read more I can spend all day here and not get bored and I feel like every time I come everything changes or they get a boat load of new things in. A lot of the staff is very friendly and helpful. We furnished our entire house from this ikea with the help of the very friendly staff.

You need new furniture? Decoration? A new kitchen? And some (Swedish) food to go with it? Well,…read morethere is only one place that has it all - IKEA! There are two types of people: those that are able to assemble IKEA furniture, and those that get extremely frustrated while trying to do so (and failing!). I consider myself part of the first group - and I cannot imagine a time where my family and friends haven't asked me to help them with their furniture. And I love it! For those of you, who have never been to IKEA, here's a short description: It's a Swedish company, so obviously even the rugs and toilet seats are named after Swedish towns and villages. You can pretty much find everything here that you might need in your house: Kitchen? Check! Bathroom? Check! Stuffed toys and princess beds? Double check! Whatever you buy, there's a 99% chance you will have to assemble it yourself, and most of the time, even the simplest box will consist of at least 17 different parts. The furniture is pretty cheap, and the quality has gradually been increased as well. It is definitely possible to furnish and decorate an entire house with only stuff from this one shop, and it will still have a really nice style and look good. And of course, the main reason why anyone here visits IKEA - the hot dogs! At only 1€, they are a cheap and quick snack, highly unhealthy, but soooo good! I also recommend the breakfast: The restaurant opens up half an hour before the rest of the shop does, and who wants to shop on an empty stomach? It's also ridiculously cheap and actually really not bad at all! Bottom line: * IKEA offers everything (!!!) you need to furnish a house * Everything has Swedish names and consists of billions of parts * They also serve food, most notably hot dogs, Swedish meat balls and breakfast! * You'll always leave with gazillion things you didn't need in the first place (scented candles, anyone?) * You'll love it or hate it! (I love it!!!)

We live in a time where "the-cheaper-the-better" is our motto in all things, so I've always…read morewondered how places like this can still exist. I'll be honest, when it comes to furniture I totally agree with that sentiment! Full kitchen with appliances for 2k? Sure thing! Large faux leather couch for 500? Done! So how can A place that charges up to 10 times that amount for a kitchen even pay its bills? Easy: People buy stuff on credit all the time. Pro: - Outside of the city with a huge parking lot - Great assortment of quality brands - Excellent Restaurant Con: - Bloody expensive - Bloody expensive - Bloody expensive On a side note, the restaurant on the top floor is sensational! They built a delightful food court where a bunch of cooks prepare your food on demand (using fresh ingredients) for a very cheap price.
