I think I have to make a trip sooner than planned. The Daybed I want for the office/spare room isn't in the new catalog. So far it's the only one DH and I can agree on for that room.
It is worth checking on, but not being in the catalog doesn't necessarily mean that something is being discontinued. There is no way they could fit everything in a catalog that size.
While we're talking...can I just say that I find IKEA's website INFURIATING? OMG, you have all the money in the world, hire some damn web people! First of all, having to indicate your country EVERY TIME you visit the site. Ever heard of a cookie? Plus, the search is awful. You can search for the EXACT name of something and not find it. Plus the inability to search for, like, frames by sizes. AAAARGGGH!!
Ikea has been disappointing all around. They got rid of their Kids Eat Free Tesdays...waaaaaa!
Not everywhere! They still have it at mine. THey did last week anyway.
Ours is gone too, damn it. It says they'll be back in September. I was all excited to take DS there a couple weeks ago, have him go to Smaland so I could shop in peace, then have a cheap dinner. Nope. Smaland was too full, kids eat free was discontinued. He ended up being reasonably well behaved, so it wasn't too bad.
I still get 1 thought everytime I get this catalog....cheap. I don't mind buying small things from there, cute vases, pictures/frames, but when it comes to furniture, the stuff is cheap. I've owned their stuff for 10 years now and some of it is just falling apart...once we get settled in the house, we will be buying all new real furniture!
::::Waiting for the tomatos to be throw::::
No tomatoes, here either, but 10 years at that price is pretty decent, if you ask me.
I want two so bad to replace a worn loveseat. The packaging doesn't fit in my car according to the size description. And Ikea is more than 2 hours away so it is a big hassle to get there.

I know the catalog is small compared to their actual selection, but we've been almost burned by the discontinued thing on a different item. We were lucky that time and there was one still in stock at a store near an aunt.

No tomatoes, I buy stuff from Ikea. So when it gets trashed by my kids, I don't go postal.

Can you take it out of the boxes and put the parts in your car? We've done that before.

I suspect the chair base is as large as the box, but I have no idea... I wish I lived closer that I could make the trip to check but its like 3 hours from me.

You can check it out online- it comes assembled, except for the legs.
