  They would call it “Værmis” to sound more Scandinavian even though swedish uses ä and ö

    IKEA would never do that. We would NEVER use Danish letters like stupid idiots

      Cheap IKEA rugs are actually named after Danish places.

      Are you trying to tell them something?

        Well, upon researching it I seems to have been half incorrect. It seems most IKEA rugs are named after Danish places. So I was incorrect in saying it’s the cheap ones. Looking at the website, however, there are a few without danish place names. But yes, the general theme is that we’re meant to walk on the danish.

      Maybe it’s a Germany thing because we have Ä and Ö too, but IKEA in Germany has products like “Bjørn”
