<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mark737, post: 4297472, member: 14894&quot;]I agree with most of the writer&#039;s points but he&#039;s wrong about home size being a factor, at least in the US.&nbsp; Average home size in the US has more than doubled from 1289sf in 1960 to 2657sf in 2014.&nbsp; In Britain, on the other hand, they have gone from 909 to 729 during this period. And I disagree with his take on the shopping experience at IKEA, which I put up there with a trip to the dentist or DMV.&nbsp; One key factor he missed was the death of the formal dining room we&#039;ve seen in the US in recent years, a big blow to the demand for grand dining tables, chairs, and sideboards.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
