They are ideal for storing toilet tissues, breakfast cereals and Wispa bars on.

So if
2xPastis+1xsack of spuds=195
then
AxWench+Bxsack of spuds=195
Calculate how many Wenches and sacks of spuds may safely go on the stand.
Fractional Wenches are not permitted.

Wench is not interested in sitting on the stand. Only in putting her small stereo and kitchen crap on it.

You're probably one of those couples who you see standing in the car park, scratching their heads/having a row, cos what they have just bought won't fit in the car! point:

I shall look across the common tomorrow morning and see if it's still standing. (working tomorrow!)

I took down the measurements of the flatpack and Mr Wench assures me it will fit! So there!

Point about Ikea stuff is that it is not made to last. If it did they'd be out of business within five years. It is cheap and replaceable.
As Alan Clark(?) said about Hesletine "The sort that has to buy his own furniture" ~ meaning that if you want it to last and become an heirloom then do not buy it from Ikea. If, like us, you recognise that your kids will wreck it anyway and you live on a pension etc then it is perfectly good stuff but three to five years use is the most you will get out of any of it.
-
Could see the 2 chimneys this morning, although ground level was obscured by mist. Have seen no panicking locals so assume that everything is still there.

I have a set of Ikea modular wardrobes that must about 15 years old. Still in very good condition despite having been disassembled twice in house moves.

New to me.
Had for gotten that, will have to do a search.

It depends what you purchase from them. If you purchase the £10 coffee table it's going to last a couple of years, if you buy the £100 one it's going to last substantially longer. Or so we've found anyway.

I assume that you do not have three children + all their friends tramping through your house, sprawling in chairs, jumping on beds and generally wrecking things.
The point about Ikea is that they do not want you to make their products last. They want you to keep buying and have made it fashionable so to do. Try replacing a broken cup or plate two years after you bought the set from them and see where that gets you ... You end up with a new set and an old set that you give to the charity shop because it is one or two pieces short
Look we shop there and have done since they opened the branch at Wembley ~ all I'm saying is that their stock is constantly changing and they do not want you to keep it forever .... they want you to keep buying.
-
I agree with you for most of it. But my Mum has stuff that she bought from them over ten years ago that has had teenagers and animals sprawling all over it and it's fine. Not pristine but it isn't falling apart.
-
You need a table for coffee?
We use mugs! rubschin:
-
So Mrs Nick tells me. She says she always sends the Mug to make her coffee.
-
We drink tea.
-
The wardrobes are in my bedroom. A safe haven from the children.
One the mirror doors did get cracked during a move. The removal men denied all knowledge of course and we couldn't get a replacement. Ikea finally managed to get a plain door instead.

5 pages and not on mention of meatballs! sick2:

If you athletic youngsters restricted the use of your coffee tables to supporting a few cups and the occasional newspaper, they would last a lot longer. whistle:
