I have been buying IKEA household and home office furniture products since working in Oslo, Norway…read moreand Helsingborg, Sweden in 1981-1985. Since that time I have seen the company expand into the UK and USA and other parts of the world. The company produce and sell all types of good quality stylish and practical furniture and household products with great Swedish style and at reasonable prices. A truly great international store chain. Be prepared for a long shopping trip here as the store is ginormous with a vast array of products. There is also a very reasonably priced restaurant / cafe if you need a break and to eat while shop. Lots of parking available too. A really unique shopping experience here. Don't be overwhelmed.

I really was planning to browse. After all, I had taken the Underground there. I knew I couldn't…read morebuy anything, because I'd have to carry it around all day. And yet... there was a laptop table that was $^&#@ perfect. I must have it! I walked from Neasden (Jubilee Line) station. Yes, the Ikea web page mentions the free shuttle bus from Stonebridge Park, but there were planned engineering works (surprise!). I looked at Google Earth and saw that Neasden was close enough. It's a pleasant and well marked ten minute walk from Neasden, but there are a couple of alleys that could be a little unsafe after the sun sets, if you know what I mean. Entering the store, I stopped for a late breakfast to earn back the calories from the walk. They have a fantastic special - 6 items for £1.55 make up an English breakfast. That gave me a few minutes to catch my breath and plan my attack. There's a difference between "cheap" and "inexpensive." IKEA isn't heirloom quality furniture, but it will last pretty well under normal conditions and certainly is useful for kitting out a flat or a college dorm room. The kitchenware, including the cutlery and flatware and dishes are all decent and arty. The desks and the beds and the chairs and the sofas are all excellent. Not cheap. Inexpensive. I'm a fan. In the end, I skipped the laptop table. Maybe I can convince a vehicle'd friend to pick it up for me. Or have it delivered - the £15 table is only £22.50 with shipping. (600)
