Comments on: IKEA Won’t Sell “In-Stock” Mattress Because It Requires The Forklift? http://www.positivefanatics.com/2007/02/ikea_wont_sell_.html The Unofficial IKEA Web Journal Fri, 15 Oct 2010 17:15:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Positive Fanatics http://www.positivefanatics.com/2007/02/ikea_wont_sell_.html/comment-page-1/#comment-1229 Positive Fanatics Thu, 18 Mar 2010 04:37:39 +0000 http://207.58.190.194/?p=363#comment-1229 IKEA offers a 5 to 25 year warranty on many items and the quality of the Kitchen line is on par with European manufacturers, not Wal-mart. Sorry you had a bad returns experience, but dogging the entire store product range is a bit reactionary.

Don't Worry. If you change your mind, bring it back. Said the heart with arms. Read the receipt and you get a different story. The item must be unused and in original packaging. I can live with that. The person at the return desk though, clearly stated that if you put it together you cannot return it. Technically speaking though, I could assemble a piece of furniture, then take it apart and put it back in the box without using it and I would fit the receipt terms. I personally will never shop at Ikea for furniture again. I will also never buy any kitchen implements as the quality is on par with Wal-Mart, but with higher prices. They used to offer a 5 year warranty on their pans. They no longer do. When a company offers little or no warranty, and is stingy with it's return policy, it gives the impression that they do not have confidence in the quality of their products. Just some food for thought. I used to think Ikea was great, until I tried to take something back. Don’t Worry. If you change your mind, bring it back. Said the heart with arms.

How many times do you go to home depot to be disgusted at everybody working with forklifts to replace stock, blocking off everything ? Just go back when they have stock. Smart store. Free delivery ? I don't think so. SMART products. We have IDIOT GREEDY managers in charge of corporate America. The company is private and the guy is smart and it shows. I'm re-doing my place with its products.

For security reason. I am an IKEAn who have been blogging about everything I know about IKEA for a while. There was moment I wondered, is there any other IKEA related blog out there. And then I found your site! Great job! I'd like to propose a link trade(or establish a long term relationship between the two blogs) so we can benefit both of our readers. Although my blog was only established in June, I do have some awesome readers around whom I believe will be interested in your blog as well! Let me know if you are interested! Regards, Anne That is true. For security reason.
