Whatever marketing mumbo jumbo that Ikea employs from the artistic suggestive furniture display to the deceptively cheap meatballs, it works on me. In fact Ikea store is like walking into a catalog. I love it. I even dragged Bits dating with me there a few times. He suck it up manfully and even helped testing the furniture.
There is a cheaper option in the below one. We tried it but it just feels different. No neck support and the seat area is a bit small for my and Bit's bum. We both have fleshy bums.
There is also the cheapest version which is the POANG series. It is comfortable has a good neck support just not aligned with my neck though it aligns with Bits. The arm rest is ok so it's a good contender with the favorite armchair.
First let's pay homage to the meatballs. Not the famous beef one but the unknown brother - CHICKEN MEATBALLS! They have chicken meatballs here which is awesome. Finally I get to taste the Swedish meatballs.
As mentioned earlier I wanted a few moving pieces of furniture that I can play around - a 2 seater sofa, an armchair and an ottoman or several poofs (haven't decided yet). After sitting on a number of arm chairs, this is an all time favorite for me and Bits - the STRANDMON series. From neck support to arm rest, it is perfect! However the price is also a shocking $399.00. The footstool - $149.00. Combined, it cost almost 2 Klippan Sofa.

So hard to justify investing so much in an armchair but I really like it! ARGH!
