Sorry. There's an early game tomorrow, so I figured we should get an early start.

What do you mean by "Canuck idea?" Or are you just referring to how they have a lot of Swedes?

The bar is pretty low around here it seems

great GDT again AS.

But as a person who considers his two passions to be hockey and building things... do not buy IKEA products. They are pure ****. Seriously its a pet peeve of mine how popular that place has become.

I mean like a side table or small desk is fine. They are good for that kind of thing. But any large significant piece: a coffee table, dresser, bed, kitchen table. Go do yourselves a favour. Spend an extra couple hundred bucks and go to a legit furniture store.

Sure a table will cost you $500 at a nice place but it will be made out of wood, not particle board, and it will last you forever.
Plus, a lot of high end woodwork is done by Canadian cabinet makers (something we are really good at and we have a ton of wood) so its actually really good for our economy if you can find it.

The amount of brainpower you put into this post far exceeds the amount of brainpower that went into the GDT.

My thought process was "Backlund is doing well -> Backlund is Swedish -> IKEA."

 

[InfinityIggy]

All these complainers. Can go backs to where they came from.

I'm on the fence. If I buy a computer desk, I don't really care if it will last 5 years or 30. I bought a really nice computer desk at IKEA that really fit what I needed, and came with a lot of little extra perks. Having a power bar build in? That's pretty ****ing cool. USB hub? Pretty ****ing cool. Slots for cable management? Pretty ****ing cool! $80? Sold.

Now, if I'm looking to buy couches, or a bed frame, I'll focus on quality.

IKEA is super hit and miss. I have an awesome glass shadowbox coffee table from there that is solid wood, and only set me back few hundred bucks. I also have a big ass shelving unit that is a pile of garbage.

I have a bed frame from there that is great as well.
And two little night stands that are utter ****ing ****.

Most of their stuff that doesn't require construction is pretty good too I find.
