Picking out a piece of furniture from Ikea is the easy part. But, putting it together, that's where the real stress begins.
But if you're weighing up between two bedside tables and trying to work out which looks easier than the other, there's a nifty new online tool to help you.
Householdquotes has launched the ultimate solution for your Ikea flatpack troubles: an interactive tool that reveals how hard an Ikea item is to assemble and the simplest alternatives in each category.
For example, the Eket cabinet scores just 2.9 for Ease Of Assembly, but when you search for it, alternatives like the Brimnes with a score of 4.4 will be suggested.
The project also covers a rundown on the most/least difficult item to assemble in each category and digital renders of the hardest/easiest living room arrangements to build.
