A smaller store than the huge Warrington site, the Preston store is one of the first IKEA Plan & Order Points to open in the UK.
Dedicated to kitchen and bedroom planning, the store boasts a showroom and a click and collect service, meaning customers can order any IKEA product online and pick it up from the unit, free of charge.
