Ikea

Employees are not willing to help customers. They are more interested in chit-chatting among themselves. They act annoyed when asked a question. Avoid the Paramus store at all cost.

the worst!!!!!!!
nice store to go buy a few little items and leave.
we needed to furnish a house i went bought a bunk bed with mattresses a crib and a king bed. a million black and blue spots later from carrying most of this stuff myself out of the shelves to the delivery area, all seemed fine, until delivery date when we left extra early too our weekend place because the stuff was supposed to come betw. 7-11am long story short calling and waiting all day we got the crib and bunk bed frame at 11 at night and had a cranky 10 month old baby and a tired 6 years old back in the car to drive to the city because we had no mattresses to sleep on. now another million phone calls later it is already mid week and we don't even know if they will; deliver the stuff the next weekend. no chance to talk to a supervisor. no one helping. and all that after i had most of these items already in my hands including the twin mattresses and crib mattress. but they lost it all in the home delivery section and don't feel like making the effort to pull it again!!!!!! the worst experience. never again. 1800- mattress next time.

Ikea is a great place to go if you are not looking for lasting furniture. It has very affordable prices, but the furniture does not tend to be well made.

Ikea is known for it's great dirt cheap items. Well, it may be dirt cheap, but the quality of their items is pretty bad. Meanwhile, I do recommend this store of Ikea to people who need those kind of things TEMPORARY only, just because most of their things will either break, not work and "get killed" in less then 5-6 months of home use. They also have GREAT deals for students that dont have a lot of money to spend. So overall, good items for the price, but beware - their quality is not good at all. This store got a lot of selection which is very good. 3/5

PROS: Good Temporary stuff // students
CONS: CHEAP bad quality items

I remember when my family and I would go on "roadtrips" to Jersey from Manhattan and I would always be excited about going to this Ikea. They have a great place for children to play if their parents don't want to bore them with all the furniture shopping. The food court is also great - and of course, the merchandise and the prices are awesome - like every Ikea. The service is great too.

PROS: Great service, Great products, great prices, Great atmostphere
CONS:

I knew about Ikea in college and knew they were durable and cost effective furniture but after a visit to this super store - I was blown away. Not only could you spend a huge chunk of your day here but, they have great stuff. For those that are not able to visualize - they actually set up areas showcasing how you can have your room and everything within the display is something that you can find in Ikea. I love the setup (those who are NY'ers know what I mean) that shows how even a tiny matchbox is deemed worthy to have Ikea in it. Anyone can become an interior designer overnight including showing how your office can be done as well. This is a must visit especially since they have a cafe and everything - you can not go wrong here.

PROS: Everything in the catalog becomes something you want
CONS: Everything in the catalog becomes something you want

Not only is this store on Route 4 easy to get to (a bus leaves right from port authority), but the furniture design is great, suited for those tight living spaces most of us have, and they deliver for pretty low fees. The furniture is pretty inexpensive, just watch out for the REALLY chep stuff because the quality is not as good as some of the pricier items.
