All the stuff we got over the new year break was made in Poland but more importantly, it all fits together perfectly.

Bought no end of stuff from IKEA in the past, and it's always gone together without too much fuss. Probably the best of the flat-pack furniture sellers.

Am I missing something?

China's in Scandanavia, so you get white ones and yellow ones. And some in between called Innui and they're quite big. I know because I got an A in Geography GCSE.

They've outsourced most of the production to China, and since then half the stuff you buy doesn't fit together.

100% of the stuff we bought at the weekend went together nicely. That was only 2 items though so it's hardly representative.

I did notice that it was absolutely rammed at the weekend. One chap on his own had 6 (yes, six) trolleys full of kitchen flat packs - probably taking maximum advantage of the 10% discount when you spend over £2k on kitchens.
