:—))) don´t be too snoppy there is quite few Ikea´s in US too
but since Ikea developed the flatpacket furniture system only those who
earn more money than they can spend can afford wooden furnitures ….. nearly

not quite so yet but realy lots of furniture masters have shot down since then
and the highend designer stuff is also made on factorys though by very skilled craftmen

another reason is people wants to change stile /colours in there home about every ten years
and think why spend 5000 – 15000$ on a dinningtable with chairs when they can buy it for under 500 $
and a few hours of labor at home = no demands for furniture grade lumber on the shelfs
in the local lumber suplier :-(
