Gergwheel1647545492 Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 if you can't figure out IKEA instructions then you should do the following: 1. walk out to garage 2. acquire hammer 3. hit yourself in the head until you are smarter. seriously, they are cartoons that are designed for children to understand.

o0n8 Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 Real furniture is not made of MDF. It's pine. Not saying it's great but it's a step above Walmart/Target furniture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffro Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 Most IKEA furniture is made of MDF, they make their own MDF. This is correct. We spent close to 2k at ikea about 3 years ago on bedroom furniture and a few kitchen items (why? idk. Ask the missus.) The bed frame was MDF with a wood veneer, the dressers were MDF with a wood veneer, and most of the dining furniture was MDF with a wood veneer. Its held up well so far. Kids will be the ultimate test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised its lasted you this long, i was always told to always buy quality over price when it comes to real furniture you plan on having a while (bedroom, dining room sets, etc... ) I've had my bedroom set for over 7 years and its held up great even through a few moves. From what I understand about IKEA quality it seems to be on par with Sauder stuff? Sauder always haa that shitty MDF with a wood veneer over top.
