IKEA opened a new shop in Stockport's Mersey Way Shopping Centre on Tuesday 👀
Greater Manchester's newest IKEA, which opened this week, has caused a stir by already dividing shoppers.
But some fans of the Scandi brand say they are disappointed by the smaller store's limited selection.It is smaller than the standard IKEA store and is intended to compliment the bigger units, the Scandinavian brand has confirmed, but is said to be packed with kitchen and wardrobe solutions - including oven and hob options, kitchen fronts, worktops and appliances. However, the announcement has divided customers.
Tania Halkyard, a fellow Facebook commenter, said: "Would have liked to have seen a smaller store that sold all the accessories, candles, containers, plants, kitchen utensils etc. The items you love but just cannot cope with walking round the big store." On opening day, Michael Parker, Area Manager of IKEA UK, said: “Our investment in the North West is part of our long-term plan to transform our retail business, continuing to make it easier for people to enjoy what IKEA offers using a variety of convenient ways. The North West is a key region for us, being home to over seven million people, and also being the place that IKEA first opened a UK store, 35 years ago in Warrington.
