Why is Ikea so popular?

Asked by syz (35938points) January 17th, 2010

There’s a new(ish) Ikea in Charlotte, NC, and people will drive for hours to shuffle through it en masse. It’s like standing in line at Disney during a holiday weekend. Sure, some of the design elements are cool. The furniture is affordable, but it’s pretty poor construction (although better than Target or Walmart, certainly). What’s the real appeal?
