Sales assistants at ikea Milton Keynes for the matress/bedding section are now blunt and argumentative. This is a noticable change since six months ago when we got helpp and ordered a bed through a pleasant young lady from Poland. Of the two staff we sought help from yesterday in the matress / bedding area one was blunt but the other was quite argumentative and would not consider our view on the smaller uk double and king size beds but rather he argued staunchly that the uk double was adequate for two adults and that he was married twenty two years and he was "not a small bloke". We found him, an older local man, to be a put-off. We've shopped quite a bit in ikea over the past five years, bought large items there, beds etc. It's a pity because we've always had pleasant experiences in ikea until now.
