At the end of the day most of the moderately priced furniture from IKEA is actually pretty good. When looking for some new living room chairs we visited 2-3 local furniture stores first, and gave up and went to IKEA after suffering through a miserable shopping experience.

Sure, IKEA may not have furniture that is going to last you 20+ years, but at least you know you'll get a fairly standard base level of quality for the price.

Who knows what you're going to get from Wayfair. It's all just random imports with no real way to figure out what level of quality you are paying for.
