As a Swedish national, I can just say that for me IKEA is such a magical place. When I step through the door I feel like home, except nobody is able to say the different product names they have 😅😅.
Haven't bought that many things though, I usually just buy a lot in the Swedish supermarket section. It's just very expensive in comparison to what it cost in Sweden. In Sweden although basically everyone buys their furniture from there, it's with a bit of "shame", because it's not considered premium. The quality is okey, but it's mostly for "regular" worker families. But here among Dominicans it's very exotic. So the price but also the fact that I live on the north coast makes it not so easy to go there and just pick stuff up. Haven't been there since June 2019... And currently no plans on going there soon.
