Thanks but we are already using the sets

Buy it again and return using old receipt

Will they just take a receipt?
I just bought 250sqft of Tundra flooring and dont want to lug 10 boxes back into the store, just to lug them back out.

that's a great price on the norden dining table. I bought mine over a year ago. I had to get the smaller 59"-80" size because the 87"-105" was way too long, even without the leaf in. but if you have the space and the dinner guests to use it, and you like the style, I'd recommend it.

Seems the way to get the deal is to return, and re-purchase.

shoot...guess then i will buy 2 of the PRUTA at 2 diff times on saturday and return the 2 the same day at 2 diff times and hope 2 diff CS reps....

That seems like a lot of work to save $6. Heck, I live right down the block from an Ikea and I can't imagine doing that.

I've got some of the Ikea 365 set. Nice design, no rivits, handle is spot welded, Pots have a gradiated scale on the inside for liquids (might come in handy, haven't used so far). Only complaint is that the stainless steal has some color change going on. The inside is turning a little green and purple from heating/cooling. I can't figure out why.

if anyone installed the flooring, would appreciate some feedback how it went in, in comparison to other laminates.

As a note to anyone thinking about buying this flooring. Beware, I would only recommend this flooring for smaller rooms and small installation areas with minimal traffic.

I did about ~600 sq. feet two years ago and it has held up okay.

I had some installation issues. For instance the planks were bowed in areas preventing an easy install. The planks easily chipped when using the IKEA block to tap the planks into each other. The foam that you have to put down below the planks was a giant pain too.

The first room (living room) was a pain for me to get done. I blame it on first time installation. I did the dining room which connects seemlessly to the living room and I was able to rip up my carpet, old padding, pull s/taples, lay new padding, and put down planks in 8 hours time.

You must remove all s/taples!

Also, double check your floor as it does not pitch more than an 1/8" over 4 feet or you can run into problems with the planks staying together.

Lastly, if I were to do it again I would buy Pergo or something very close in style. The Pergo flooring has the padding adheared to the bottom of the plank. The planks are much thicker (1/2") than IKEA's (1/4") and quality is much better IMHO.

You get what you pay for! I may be a small minority, but you guys asked my opinion!

/end of rant.

EDIT: IKEA Plank thickness is 1/4", not 1/8". Was a mistype on my part. Thank you user Danas for pointing this out to me!

I had a few moments so I sent off an email to corporate complaining... these sales exclude us way to often.
