    I've had Ikea send me replacement parts on products over 15 years old. I keep all assembly instructions in a file so I can give them the actual part number.
    The Ikean was blown away when I gave the very old parts number for a discounted connector. It was for a cabinet I had disassembled for a move. He did some research and called me back a couple of days later. He had found something similar and had already put a dozen in the mail. It was a tiny bit shorter but still worked.
    Talk about great customer service.

    I would like to point out that there is a major exception to this: IKEA has to still make/store the part you lost. After a recent move, the moving company lost the screws for the computer desk I had bought in 2012 from IKEA. They did not make the desk nor those particular screws anymore so they could not replace that part. Though bless the person in the customer service department that tried to find a close approximation to work. It didn't but I bought the replacement desk at IKEA.

    I love ikea. I had 2 wonderful bookshelves both 5x5. I owned it for 2 years and then moved. The movers lost the connection pegs and i no longer could assemble me shelves.
    I called ikea and they mailed me the pegs i needed for free.
    That customer service is why i will always love ikea.

    Sauder will do the same thing. A piece broke while my son was putting together a bookshelf for me and Sauder sent a replacement free of charge.

    If the parts broke the ikea give you a small replacement so they don’t have to lose your value you, mange buying it for eighty dollars when the parts break they give you a replacement the one part cost ten dollars to keep their value up

    Even for bedroom furniture it’s the same, not just this store but all of them.
