The price is one thing. But also the design. If you like simple and versatile, Ikea is absolutely the right place. I love the dressers. A tall one is our changing table. Another one temporarily in the bedroom, 3 stand in the hallway as a coat rack replacement. The pieces are brilliant. I am someone who regularly needs something new in the house. So I prefer to buy cheaper rather than expensive. And with Ikea, I can even keep the cheap stuff longer because there are addons. And the ikea-hacks are top-notch

No, it's about price/performance. I bought a 34-drawer chest for the office elsewhere: €270 plus €50 for shipping. Biggest rubbish, and for that money I could have gotten 4 or 5 Malms, unfortunately not in this depth. And that it doesn't look the same in every household right now, I already wrote.

That your Pax didn't last long is surprising. Very likely you didn't do a good job building it yourself!?!

Apparently, a whole new language is developing with Ikea. Malm and hacks, no idea what you’re talking about.
And you like these colorful plastic baskets? That’s really a whole different world for me. Plastic boxes are certainly practical, but visible as furniture? For me, they’re at most in the closet, so the moths don’t get to the flour or something.

By "hack" is meant repurposing Ikea products. For example, converting a kitchen cabinet into a washstand in the guest bathroom. Or in the picture, it seems to me a Lack tabletop placed on a shelving system (which one?), into which boxes fit. A play table for the children's room.

Malm is a dresser, just as well known as the Billy.

Hack comes from the internet, has nothing to do with Ikea, and what you disparage like that are children’s furniture. Practical colorful boxes! You don’t have to like them, nobody has to put them in their living room, you’ll find similar things in every children’s department.

So the quality at Ikea is apparently not bad. I probably just had bad luck with mine. Who knows? But there really is so much crap on the furniture market, you can easily end up in the red. Yes, that is really curious. For you, Decker and this old lady cupboard are the same but the same cupboards from Ikea are totally different. (A difficult sentence, take your time.) The shelves are all bent and threaten to slip out of the tiny holders on the sides. They’re not designed for pasta and flour, but only for string thongs. Clearly my fault.
