For starters, they traffic hugely in illegally harvested timber, and their labor practices are so bad that they find China too restrictive. Not to mention the fact that they've somehow made ugly dorm room furniture seem mainstream.

I also hate that you can't exit the store without going through the entire store. Evil!
