Ideed, a lot of this hate is undeserved: you can buy solid wood products at Ikea, they obviously won't be the cheapest option avaliable.

They are actually really good at detailing all materials used for their product - you know whether you are buying a shelf made of chrome plated steel, galvanised steel, epoxy coated steel, or galvanised and then epoxy coated.

Look at Argos on the other hand - you have no clue of it's paper honycomb, particleboard or wood. You get a cat in a bag.
