I'm sad about that because I loved the formal design center that was the Helms bakery. The two Ikea stores don't even compare. Going to Ikea Burbank is like going to an Adult Disneyland. You get entertainment, food and Steps.
Yeah, I'm also sad about losing the bakery but that was decades ago and I kinda sad about consumerism, but I've been reading a lot of things lately that the world loves the American consumer.
Oh well, if I need a quick fix for a buildable cabinet, the culver city store is really close.
