    Everything under one roof. Good value and some nice products. However, not everything is of high quality. Enjoy the long walk through the maze

    If you turn up with the idea of "I'll only get what I need", you're in for a treat. This place makes you buy things you'll never want nor need, like a 32 piece bathroom set, or a new living room.

    60p hotdogs! Meatballs! Other stuff I can't pronounce but tastes delicious! Plus household stuff that's really good and super cheap!

    If you know what you want to buy, save time by looking up the warehouse locations on the web site beforehand and then just go straight to the warehouse. You'll also be less likely to buy other stuff!

    Seriously, who is going to read a review for IKEA? Be warned: it'll take you a while to get around the whole shop.

    Ikea is like a maze, so what would it benefit from most if you shop with family???? Good phone signal!!!

    Don't go. It's an anti-clockwise spiral staircase to hell littered with zombies discussing the merits of an artily drawn abstract spiral scrawled in chimp feces for their living room wall.

    we stop here rather than services for a break. Inexpensive, clean and convenient. Do a food shop while we're here.

    If you can shop here you have the patiences of a Saint. Stay away if you have any sense. No wonder suicide is so high in Sweden!
