Ikea for President.\n\nSeriously, could you imagine if our government was as efficient, affordable and useful as Ikea? Between the faux wood and the real wood, Ikea offers so many options for your home in all price ranges. The help is 7 out of 10 times helpful, and Ikea provides you with almost everything you need (string to tie something to the roof of your car, big bags/cart/dollys, measuring tape, pencils and notepads).\n\nI'm a big fan personally of the Hemnes line (real wood!) and have purchased it for my master bedroom and living room, so far with excellent results. In the past I've done Malm (haven't we all?) and was pleased with the small investment and the years I got out of that set. \n\nOnly downside to Ikea is the directions they give you to assemble stuff. No words! Just pictures, so make sure that you're well rested and have the patience of a saint when building the larger pieces (personally, I look to my gentleman friend to assemble everything - I throw things within 5 minutes).
