Yes, a sad day. As nice as the joke with the coffin is, I really don't understand that everlasting fuzz about left over screws and unclear instructions. My impression is that every moron could assemble Ikea stuff... as long as s/he sticks to the instruction and doesn't try shortcuts or things s/he thinks to know better. The items I ever had problems with where cheap Ikea-copies, but never any genuine Ikea-item. And most of the time I was impressed by the craftspeoples' and engineers ingenuity, who designed the item. My big living room table, for example: I could take all parts out of the box in just the right order to assemble them, and when I was ready, there was a table upside-down in the box, just turn it over and - tadah!
I guess the poorly assembled coffin is due to Sweden's lack of concentration while he was mourning.
Rest in peace, Ingvar, and godspeed.

Did he die from natural or from a mob of angry people with a desk that somehow turned into a clock.

I'm Finnish and I can totally relate to Finland's sadness. If I could build a whole house, it would be filled with IKEA. I'm like a kid in a candy store when shopping there and no one really wants to go with me because I became so annoying. "OH MY GOSH LOOK AT THIS! I WANT THAT AND THAT AND THAT AND THAT.... THAT'S SOOOOOOO CUTE LOOK!" I know, I'm weird when it comes to IKEA.

I'm not sure how many others feel this way. But yeah, I still think IKEA is very popular here in Finland.

I'll never understand peoples struggle to assemble IKEA furniture.

Ingvar was a good man and a great leader. He'll be missed dearly.

I, too, was freshly escaped from prison (a scary divorce), was close to broke in a new city, and needed furniture for my tiny apartment. Thanks, Mr. Kamprad. My first few days of freedom were spent putting a dresser and an armoir together. I followed the directions, and the sense of accomplishment was a great way to start a new life.

RIP

Let's all hope he has better luck making it to heaven than we do finding the exit to IKEA.
