I would have gone with you to the Chicago one. I kept trying to get people to go with me either there or Atlanta. My trip was good, but disappointing. I went with people who had never been, so we spent an insane amount of time in the showroom, and then we had to rush (and by rush, I mean run) through the marketplace (which is totally my favorite part). (My friend had to be back to pick up her daughter at Capital Day.) This Ikea is all showroom on the top floor (with the occassional item to put in your cart) and the bottom is all marketplace/warehouse. In Seattle & California the set up was a little different, but I like this way since I don't usually care if I see the showrooms. I was quite happy to get my 5 bookshelves for $100, my desk that I used to have, a chair for the desk, and a filing cabinet of sorts. :)
