Why is Ikea so popular?

There once was (or still is?) a bed for children called "Gudvik". THe hilarious thing was, that spoken out, it sounds quite like "Gutfick" in German, which basically means "Good fuck"

The town of "Fucking" likely loves those beds.

It's probably the best place in town for watching MILFs, the one near my house is filled with yummy mummys every day.

Leave it to Aerius to come up with that definition of Ikea!

I find people either love Ikea or despise it. Dunno why. I love it, myself.

I love IKEA- its got such suave furniture that's both attractive and utilitarian. Most of my home furnishings are IKEA, with names I can't even pronounce, but bloody hell is it well made.

When I got my new TV, I re-arranged my room and bought new bookshelves from Ikea for my increasingly large DVD and manga collections. 3 65" tall, 30" wide bookshelves for just $120 (plus a cut-in-half-style shelf for the end of the row for another $50). You might get comparable deals at Walmart, but their cheap furniture is much lower-quality.
I've also got 11 other wall-mount shelves in my room, which barely cost $120 altogether.

The fact that damn near every bit of it can be assembled with an allen wrench (included), a phillips-head screwdriver, and a hammer is just icing.

He makes a point.

Ikea scares me, it's a giant one way maze, once you enter, you can't go straight out, you have to follow the track past every piece of furniture there. And the colours, it's like they spilled paints and created a theme.

And God help you if you don't own an Allen key.

The only IKEA I have ever been in is the one in Croydon, South London. I'm not sure if they are all like this but once you go in you have to go all the way through it to get to the exit. Also it was built on the site of an old power station, so they left the chimneys in the car park as a landmark.
