I noticed Ikea's "Poang" chair and footstool on sale at a ridiculously low price I could not resist, so I put them in my listening room even though it puts my ears somewhat lower than I prefer. The chair is so comfortable for me, however, that I will build a platform for it before I give it up.
Of course, I had tried it ahead of time and I knew the chair (and ottoman) fit me perfectly. I basically lucked out to notice it was on sale, but if it fits it still seems like a value at its low, regular price, compared to an Eames or other Herman Miller designs that are worth considering.
While we're at this, I hope everyone already knows about Ikea's "Expedit" record shelves. They look simply nice and work great for the purpose, at a very low price.
FWIW, I am not "an Ikea person", but they do have a few good deals, if you look carefully before you buy; and these are two of them.
Best regards,
