Comedian Mark Malkoff needed a place to live while his NY apartment was fumigated. He asked Ikea if they’d let him stay in their store for a week and record the experience. They said yes.
Mark moved into the Ikea on January 7th, and stayed through January 12th. He slept, ate, and lived there. You can see video recaps of his days here.

PS – I ate at the Ikea cafe for the first time yesterday and I was really, honestly impressed. I had the Swedish meatballs and a piece of their apple cake and I’d do it again. Mmmmm.
