They have "bottom of the barrel" and slightly better quality products. But the better products are nowhere near the (top) end of the range.

No, really: They have pretty decent quality, too. Much better than slightly better than bottom the barrel anyway.

But can you show me a "top of the range" product? Not Ikea's top range, but "high end" in the common sense.
They don't have particularly high end products, which is not what I claimed anyway. But they have good quality for the price, which extends to medium prices.
You didn't claim it but the comment that spawned this chain did claim that Ikea sells "both ends of the range" which is simply not true. They do sell products made of real wood but they are still optimized for transport rather than quality.
