Editorial Review for IKEA – by Kamila Przybylski
In Short
Hopen, Malm, Aneboda-no, those are not suggestions to name your pet, but the Swedish names of IKEA's designer furnishings and decorative odds and ends. Created with a "one-way" layout in mind, shoppers weave through a labyrinth of seemingly endless showrooms stocked with equipment to creatively accessorize every room under the sun. With patrons ranging from groups of freshmen students looking to outfit their tiny dorms to entire families, the store offers a huge repertory of styles, patterns and colors for every unique taste. And speaking of tastes, the small restaurant just beyond the cashiers serves up traditional Swedish fare for those who worked up an appetite.

IKEA is freaking huge. Especially for folks from Manhattan, bringing back large items is simply not doable without a car or some extra cash for delivery. Whats worse is they now charge for the most obscure things -- likes BAGs. Its best if you have your own bags to keep bringing back. What a pain.
Pros: Variety, Furniture, Value
Cons: Service, Busy
