IKEA Locations

My favorite reading chair has been in my family for fifteen years. It belonged to my grandmother, then my mom, and finally ended up in my living room. The cushions are worn perfectly to my shape, it sits in the ideal spot near the window, and I have read hundreds of books sitting in that chair. Last month, the recliner mechanism broke with a loud crack, and suddenly my beloved chair was stuck in the upright position. My first instinct was to buy a new chair, but nothing felt right. Every chair I tried in stores was too firm, too soft, wrong height, wrong angle. I realized I did not want a new chair, I wanted my chair fixed. I started researching whether recliner mechanisms could be replaced...

I fell into this rabbit hole after buying sheets while traveling and then trying to use them back home. On paper they looked close enough, but in practice nothing lined up. European sheet sizing is different on purpose, not by accident, and once you see the logic it kind of makes sense, even if it is still annoying. **Mattress philosophy is not the same** A big difference starts with how mattresses are designed. In most of Europe, mattresses are treated as precise objects with exact dimensions, not loose categories like twin or queen. Beds are often sold as two separate mattresses pushed together, especially in larger sizes. That changes everything for sheets. Instead of stretching fabric...

Situation: I live in a small studio apt. It's about 50 m2 total, main room is about 30 m2, kitchen is a separated room. It's on the first floor, with a huge balcony facing a low-traffic road (6 mt. distance). Poor ventilation due to only having 1 60x200 window with no counter opening to create airflow. What triggered me: the apt. is PACKED with Ikea furniture (reduced living pvolume) and I started being worried about CO2 and formaldehyde levels. I bought a meter, and it showed alarming levels of both. Decided to honor my health and buy a purifier. After 2 days of searching and reading, I thought a microalgae purifier would cover the CO2/Oxygen issue, but then I decided to go all ...

Today's prompt is "[**Vehicle of your Dreams**](https://drawabox.com/drawingprompts/X9E8OSUU)". >When I was a kid I used to lay in bed imagining what it would be like for that very bed to transform into a vehicle of some sort - a space ship, a tank, really anything enclosed where all of my stuffed animals and I could go on an adventure whilst still being cozy and comfy. I was horrified at the idea of ever losing or abandoning one of my stuffed toys, and so the idea of u...

Creating a bedroom that feels like a cozy retreat while staying clutter-free can feel like a challenge, especially in smaller spaces. But with the right design approach, it’s completely doable. A well-designed bedroom isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about creating a peaceful sanctuary where everything has a place. Here are some smart and stylish bedroom design concepts that perfectly blend comfort with practical storage. **1. Embrace Built-In Storage** Wall-mounted shelves, recessed nooks, and built-in wardrobes make use of every inch. Consider a built-in headboard with shelving or hidden compartments. Not only do they save floor space, but they also add architectural interest to...

My husband and I just bought our first house, and we decided to finance a brand new sofa set instead of hunting through secondhand stores like our friends suggested. We found a beautiful 3-piece sectional that fits our space perfectly, and yes, we are paying it off over 18 months. The judgment started immediately. My sister said we are being financially irresponsible and should have bought used furniture until we are more established. My best friend keeps sending me Facebook Marketplace listings like I made some terrible mistake. Even my dad made a comment about how his generation just sat on folding chairs until they could afford real furniture. I spent weeks researching options, inclu...

Hi all, I've been in the market for a new chair but don't really know much. I sit at my desk for the majority of my time spent at home. Especially with Christmas break, I figured I may as well start looking as this cheap-o that I have is starting to get uncomfortable. For some requirements--I'm 6'1" and still growing and as such I'd prefer a larger chair that'll ensure I can stick with it for the following years, especially considering I'll be going into college soon and therefore will be stretched for money. I need some form of arm rest and reclining, leg rest is preferred but not necessary, I can always buy one if needed. I'm unsure whether to ...

Hi, I have been looking for a TV unit that is not longer than 190cm. I tried to check out DFO and a few furniture stores on Church Street and I’m now contemplating between Oz design and Nick scali. Although I prefer Tropea TV unit from Nick Scali, I have read some bad reviews about Nick Scali furniture. I’m wondering if anyone has bought furniture from either of those places. And I would appreciate to know more recommendations of good places for timber furniture. Thanks

Looking for suggestions on the best thrift/second hand stores for home decor and furniture. Would also be interested in knowing where to purchase local art. Anywhere between Columbus, Springfield, and all the neighboring areas. I am drawn to vintage // boho // cottage-core // MCM // rustic pieces. Not a fan of flat, modern, farmhouse, grey, or white pieces. Love items with character and detail! Looking for wall decor, furniture pieces, vases, practical use items, storage, organizers, vases, shelving, etc. Thank you so much in advance!! :)

Why Should You Hire Me? I am relatively new in the world of business. I am running my web design agency as I am completing my university education. I am young and naive in many ways when compared to seasoned entrepreneurs. By any means, I am NOT a top dog in the website design industry. If anything, I am an underdog. But what I lack in experience, I make up for in dedication and attention to detail. So if that's something that is important to you, I will highly recommend you do business with me. I will create a professional WordPress website for you at $125. This includes up to 5 webpages, SSL security certificate, one business email ID, mobile-responsive design, and a logo (if needed...

According to a source closely monitoring the Macy's footprint situation, 42 Stores (including furniture galleries) will be announced for closing on Thursday, January 8, 2026. These will close by end of March. Moreover, 50-75 more stores will be remodeled in addition to the R125. These are NN75. On a video made about 2 weeks ago, Tony Spring stated he is still fully committed to closing 150 stores and keeping about 350 stores open, which will be remodeled in order to maximize consumer experience.

I’ve accumulated approximately four hundred books over the past decade, and they’re currently stacked in piles around my apartment because I refuse to get rid of any. My friend suggested I needed better storage, so I started looking at options. I somehow became obsessed with finding the perfect round bookshelf that could serve as both storage and a statement piece. Traditional rectangular bookshelves feel boring and corporate. I want something that reflects my personality while actually holding my growing collection. Circular designs are visually interesting and can fit into corner spaces better than standard shelving. Plus, they create this interesting architectural element in a room. ...

Went into Ikea recently to furnish our new place. Furnitures are all excellent no complaints. But as for the pillows, when we were at the showroom, they were so fluffy and firm enough. However, when we ordered them. It's just so flat? And basically doesn't feel like anything like the ones we felt in person. Should I just return them?

Importing a full house of furniture from Foshan, China, can save you 30–75% compared to buying retail in the USA or Australia—especially if you bulk buy with friends.

I noticed I’ll sit on the couch consuming media and reach a point of overstimulation. Then I look around for things that are deescalating and soothing but… I don’t have the items I want for that. (1) My most soothing place is the bedroom closet with soft dim light, draped clothing dampening sound, and peaceful stillness. But eugh. Euuuugh!! I have SUCH a hard time leaving a common area to go destimulate. I feel ashamed of my needs, and when overstimulated it’s so much harder to navigate. :( Does anyone have suggestions for meeting your own needs in suboptimal conditions??? It sounds silly when I write it out, but my soothing options arent what I WANT and so it doesn’t feel like an...

Changed my layout around since I actually had to use my IKEA furniture in my apartment (see later pics)In the process, I found a lot of extra storage space under the middle row area. I’ll work on that next. The tatami mat is a twin size. I really wanted a desk, and I’m glad I was able to incorporate a table top. I need a short chair now… Still a work in progress, but it’s coming along!
