I’d never go back there. The best thing about Ikea are the meatballs in the cafeteria. I’m serious, they were damn good! The Ikea in E. Palo Alto is a mess.
Ikea for me is all about a few products:
Shelving for the basement
Plants
Paper napkins
Candles
Stainless steel accessories for the kitchen (rods and racks)
some (only some) light fixtures
Picture frames
Toys for Max
All in all they have been working on quality issues over the years. But as a rule I do not buy the furniture, although there are several which have raised themselves out of the junk classification.
A well run IKEA store is a beautiful thing. A poorly run one is hell.
