Has anyone seen this shop before? It's a bit of a cross between Wilkinsons, Argos and Ikea (because it's Swedish). One has just opened in the Arndale in Manchester, occupying 3 floors of highly useful DIY stuff, homeware and electronics. I can't decide if it's a brilliant idea because there's nothing nearly as useful in the city centre, and a high population there or a terrible idea because it's a bit like woolies (eclectic) and a bad idea because most of the city centre people are renting.

Never heard of it but I've had a very quick look at their website and it's the kind of shop I like... but then I liked Woolworths and miss it. Hopefully we'll get one over here.

I've not yet figured out if they're good value. Certainly their 1m ethernet cables are a tenner so I'm establishing some things are highly overpriced.
