IKEA is big in Portugal
IKEA is one of the largest companies in Europe that sells affordable and quality homewares and accessories and the Portuguese love them too. There are currently five IKEA stores in Portugal, and they deliver to all parts of Portugal including Madeira and the Azores. In IKEA Portugal, you will find practically any home accessory or furniture item you want. Their items are cheap, have good durability and are very easy to set up. Well sort of. Beware, you might end up overspending your budget!

IKEA Portugal compared to other countries
It is common to find the same products or furniture for cheaper prices in IKEA stores in other countries within Europe. This usually tempts people to buy it abroad and then ship it to Portugal. In most cases this is usually counterproductive because the cost of shipping the items to Portugal usually makes it more expensive than the price you will get in Portugal. Also, quality-wise, IKEA Portugal and other IKEA stores in Europe have the same quality. I would say you should only buy from IKEA stores abroad if the product is unique and unavailable in Portugal.
IKEA delivery in Portugal
IKEA offers different delivery options across Portugal when you have decided what you want. They include the following:
Picking up at an IKEA store or Pickup-point
If you place an order online, you can choose to have your order delivered to an IKEA store or a Pickup-point near you. This service usually costs €20.
IKEA home delivery
IKEA Portugal offers home delivery for products bought both online and at the store. The IKEA delivery cost in Portugal is calculated by using your postcode of the delivery address and the value of your order plus a €20 service charge. Generally, delivery prices range from €25 to €380 for purchases up to €3,000. For purchases over €3,000, the delivery price is calculated using percentages. Another thing to note about IKEA home delivery is that delivery to Madeira and the Azores are, on average, more expensive than within mainland Portugal. More information about IKEA delivery prices can be found here.
IKEA Portugal is a great shopping experience overall
Generally, I would say IKEA services in Portugal are good and it’s a go-to store for many people in Portugal to buy basic, practical (and quite stylish) household items. The facilities are huge and they have a vast range of good quality and cheap household items. I would gladly recommend them to anyone looking to buy affordable household items. Furniture like this could become quite expensive if you had to pay for assembly or buy a similar item already assembled. What I love is that the stores also have a nice dining space where you can buy nice food. It’s a nice treat after some exhaustive shopping. Expert tip: Avoid visiting the stores during the weekend if you can, because it gets really crowded! Find out about Renting an Apartment in Lisbon or Porto here.

Pacos de Fereira

Second-hand markets
Another great place to find excellent home furniture is from people selling their household items on Facebook groups and OLX (website in Portuguese).
