What People Are Saying About Ikea

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

i love ikea, but the staff? wooo
by RenieS at Citysearch
I hate going all the way out to NJ just to get to an Ikea, so it's nice to have one close. HOWever, that being said...the staff all needs to be fired. This place is SO poorly run, heaven help you if you need furniture delivered or you have to make a return! Bring a picnic lunch, you'll be there ALL NIGHT! I hope someone from the management there reads these reviews because their employees are really killing the place and losing them sales.
- Pros: I don't have to go all the way out to NJ
- Cons: The HORRIBLE cashiers

Cashier used the F word on me
by Beru at Citysearch
if you need to go to an Ikea, go to NJ or LI.
was there yesterday, the cashier (her name is Michelle, i believe it was cashier counter #8 or 10) was extremely rude. Asked me to take stuff out of my bags like i should be doing her job. when i spread out all the items right next to her (i would say about 12" away from the chair she was sitting on) she kept staring at the good and refused to count all 7 of them while repeatly asking me "how many?" and "hand them over to me". when i told her i was not going to do her job she gave me the F word and said i aint doing this shxt no more and get ur shxt out of here. and when i asked for a store manager and her name she said i dont need to know her name and if i want to know, i can ask someone else.
- Pros: they have Ikeas in LI and NJ
- Cons: hiring people that do not want to do their job

Mistake Heaven

No staff on floor. When you find one they have no knowledge. And they don't care. Then if you have problems with the goods at home the Customer Service peoplea are on power trips-real drama regals they are.
- Pros: easy to find
- Cons: stakked by kids with no information
The Details on Ikea
The Extras:
Speaking of good taste, the small restaurant serves up traditional Swedish fare like meatballs, plus chicken marsala, shrimp sandwiches and kids' meals.
Know Before You Go:
Before you brag about your "designer decor" at home, know that the low prices do have a catch---all furnishing are designed to be assembled by the consumer.
