For great quality try:
Ginger Jar.
ItalInterior.
Bayside Furniture. http://www.baysidefurniture.com/home.htm
Bravura. http://www.bravura-interiors.com/bi_storage.html
Inspiration Furniture. http://www.inspirationinteriors.com/bc/index.htm

Caligaris is an Italian furniture maker that have awesome designs - not cheap, but I do like them. Also Natuzzi sofas FTW!

ikea's products are inexpensive and look fairly nice, but the quality isn't that great.

True, but some of that 'quality' might be due to the person who assembles the thing at home. Haha...

if you are on a tight budget, ikea cant be beaten, their stuff are really not that bad, just assemble it right

if you're ever in richmond, go down bridgeport, tons of furniture places

i would see if u know someone from the brick, or other chains who works there. Get them to buy it for their employee discount and then sell it to you for cheaper. If not, slightly used off craigslist or ikea.
