World Market
Do any of you shop here? There's one located about 2.5 hours away in H's hometown and they have a table that we really want if we don't find on this weekend (we're probably hosting Christmas so our 4 chair pub table isn't going to cut it lol). The problem is we have no way of getting it back up here if we buy it down there (unless it's packed in a super tiny box that will fit in my fusion) and I really don't want to waste $40 on shipping. Do they ever do free shipping online?

Re: World Market
But even if it's in a bigger box, could you fasten it to the roof? Or put down the backseats and have it in the trunk?
I can convince the FI to go because they have all kind of specialty beers and imports and allow you to "build your own 6-pack"...
Lots of cool cooking supplies, decorations, etc.

We're looking at these two ( I know very different lol)
Table 1
Table 2
We could probably have it hang out the trunk if we really had to. Although when we strapped our Christmas tree to the roof last year I drove 30mph all the way home ha ha

You can find better stuff elsewhere.
(but I'm also a little bit of a furniture snob, growing up around the manufacturing and furniture market areas can do that to you)
Are there any Ikeas near you? You can find similar quality for cheaper. God, I love Ikea so hard.
[QUOTE]Yeah I've heard mixed reviews from different people. I guess maybe it depends on the type of furniture (bedroom, dining, etc.).

We have a world market in ATL and I was looking for coffee tables and side tables for our living room. The second table you linked, the Sourav table, also comes in coffee table form and I went there to go look at it (and possibly buy it). The tops of both the coffee, side, and dining tables has this weird texturizing that is not at all smooth - which I never realized when looking online. I can't describe it, but it is not a smooth surface, I thought they were trying to go for a "distressed" look, but its like a raised pattern of sorts.
So I didn't buy because of this and also I realized they had the same prices for coffee and side tables as Pottery Barn. So I bought one from there.
That being said they did have all of the dining room furniture on display and I thought the tables looked great (besides the sourav). They looked sturdy and I was thinking about buying one in the future (Verona is maybe the style I liked in the store).
Just wanted to warn you before you bought it online- I would definitely go look at it and make sure it's your taste.

There are a few Ikeas in FL, but I don't know what the first coast is.
And Zippity, I love IKEA so very much but they are 2 hours away =(.
I keep saying they need to build one here because they would make a KILLING in a college/young professionals town.
They pack them in flat boxes (think: Ikea). If you can strap it to your roof, you'll be fine. I'm pretty sure I put our dining table in my 2-door compact Saturn with the back seats folded down. I MAY have had to take some pieces out of the box.

However, I had a Jeep at the time, so we just drove the table and chairs home ourselves. They did come in flat boxes though....so you may be able to strap it to the top of your car...
