Default Don't buy Argos beds

A friend of mine couldn't put her flat pack Argos bed together.

Significant pieces of the bed were missing and it took two weeks to
get the replacement parts. At least 10 of the holes for the various
locking bolts were drilled to the wrong depth or in the wrong position
requiring several artful dodges and bodges by me to get the thing to
fit together. How can that happen with modern manufacturing techniques
and millimeter accurate drilling jigs?

Overall an unsatisfying expereince putting the whole thing together.


I think it's IKEA that claim 10% of Europeans are now
conceived on an IKEA bed. I looked on their website
but I could see where you signed up to have a go on it.
