There are several frames at the ikea site, this one does not give a mpn #. The ones I see online don't look like this one.

I agree....why aren't the retailers and manufacturer revealed?

All I can write is, I sent this video to some family members and friends who are junk-hogs.

When did mattresses get to be so expensive? What's causing this high price.

From Chicago: I've read ratings of their mattresses and they are supposed to be of poor quality. I'm in the market for a mattress, but was persuaded not to buy Ikea based on the review.

I have a dilemma maybe somebody can help me. I've been in this apartment for almost 20 yrs, same carpet and it needs to come up and be replaced....LL won't do it and won't let me do it (about that later)....so I'm going to take the carpet up anyway. But I don't want to spend a bundle on flooring. What do you suggest I put in its place? It's a berber type carpet....over restrictive tile....I was thinking an area rug, but I need to have padding underneath...the room size is 14x14. You can email me: wrightinchicago@yahoo.com

I am so glad you too see the nonsense in some of these high priced items. How much effort does it take to think of a design and manufacture the product?

Megatron just gave me an idea for the pegboards -- use in the kitchen!

Hi, all I have a question about decorating. Is it okay to have a carpet (berber) with different colors? I live in a rental apartment (15 yrs) and the carpet is shot. About half is OK and the other is worn. I want to pull up the old carpet and put in squares that are a different color but same material. I want to know how i can do this creatively so it doesn't look weird. You can email me: wrightinchicago @ yahoo.com

BTW, is there anyone in Chicago who can visit and give a consultation about this?
