Ikea quality has really gone down hill
last time I bought Ikea furniture was probably 15 years ago. it was always relatively good quality for the price, not anymore.
I have a spare guest room that I needed to get a couple of dressers for so I figured might as well go to IKEA. I found the quality has really gone downhill, the tolerances are off, things are not aligned tightly and a lot of the metal pieces from the same dressers from 15 years ago are all plastic pieces now, generally just not as good of a product.
I think this will be the last time I buy anything there
