Bed - it was 200 or 300, lasted 10+ years. Veneer peeled off in 2 places (scraped it like crazy moving it 2x inc. up/down stairs, stored it for a year). Sold it in the end, crazy.
"Cubes" Bookcase - had it for 6+ years, moving it 1x was enough to make it too wobbly for us but still were able to sell it. Tip: leave 1-2 cubes empty and arrange books by color, looks awesome.
Med + small coffee tables - total garbage, putting your feet up on them like once is enough to make it way too wobbly. Small one is fine for a side table.
Malm dressers - had these 8+ years and still use them. Got a skinny tall one and a wide short one because I thought they matched the vibe of Hotel Nikko in SF.
Wood countertops - amazing and amazingly cheap compared to any other countertop options we found (by a big margin).
I think the MALM drawers are just as iconic - I've had so many of them as I've moved around different homes (and subsequently donated to charity when I didn't have space). They're probably made of the same crap substrate and laminate as everything else, but they're quite heavy and feel substantial.
the confusingly named "Norden occasional table" (it's a sideboard, people!) is apparently discontinued, and I can't think why. in terms of quality and sheer utility at a low price it tops pretty much any piece of storage oriented furniture I've ever bought. completely transformed my kitchen, looks good, and has held up well.
