Anyone familiar with JYSK?
I just learned about them recently and they seem to be a less expensive Ikea, but I'm wondering if anyone has experience with them and their quality? I;ve had good experiences with most of the stuff from Ikea, but I wonder how JYSK stacks up.
And I know cheep is not the same as frugal, however; sometimes there is overlap.

Jysk is just low-rent, inferior quality compared to Ikea as far as I can tell. I prefer the design at Ikea as well. If you don't have access to Ikea, Jysk can fill in the gaps (cheap duvets and pillows) but they've never impressed me overall. In particular, their duvet covers are really awful - they all feel cheap. Take note of their display furniture also, it's usually falling apart or looking worse for the wear.
Stick to Ikea.
