Superior non-branded products? - MoMA, a MUJI reseller, states that the translation is "No Brand Goods", which is what I've heard before. The translation, whatever is correct, needs a link to a reliable source either posted here, or on the article page.

Mujionline(.co.uk) says "No Brand Quality Goods". "Superior" seems to be too-strong-of-a-word to be correct.

無印良品 translates to No-Brand Quality Goods. 良品計画 is Quality Goods Plan. Just thought I'd clear that up.

The article cites the Muji store in the MoMA, but I was first exposed to this company just today in terminal 5 of the JFK airport. Should we up the store count by 1? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.243.172.160 (talk) 19:07, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Waffle

We're told, apparently in all seriousness:

Sam Hecht, Creative Director of Muji Europe, is quoted as saying "The human is not the centre of everything, but on the same level of everything."

What is this supposed to mean, and why is it here? (Is it to show that Mr Hecht is full of the brown stuff?) -- Hoary (talk) 03:25, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Useful + agreeable

Several assertions are credited to a page of "Useful + Agreeable". This is written in the first person. Who is this "I", and why should we take seriously what he or she says? -- Hoary (talk) 08:32, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What designers say they did

Muji products are not attributed to individual designers. Muji has stated that some of its products have been the works of famous international designers, although it does not disclose which ones. / There are, however, some designers who made their involvement public. The notable are Naoto Fukasawa, Jasper Morrison, James Irvine, and Konstantin Grcic.

-- the claim for each of whom is made by ... himself! No, we need independent sourcing. -- Hoary (talk) 08:32, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There are at least three Muji stores in Indonesia

I've seen three in Neo Soho, Lippo Mall Puri and PIK avenue.

Someone please update it or something because right now it says there are two. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 182.253.33.184 (talk) 10:45, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Refills in Muji pens

Muji sources refills in its pens from major Japanese stationery makers like Mitsubishi, Pilot and Zebra. When I added this information (even without much detail), it was deleted soon. You can see the Gel ink refills in various Muji pens: they resemble Uni-ball UMR-87, and Zebra JF-0.5 refills. Polytope4D (talk) 10:00, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Number of locations

Per original source - http://ryohin-keikaku.jp/eng/corporate/, the number of locations has increased. Should the new number include Café & Meal MUJI and IDÉE? Or just Muji stores?

Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by SEAsheke (talk • contribs) 02:43, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Different image for Muji Car?

Currently the image depicting the Muji Car 1000 is a front view, but I think this image from the same author (a front-side view) more clearly shows the features of the car.

2601:1C2:680:DDE0:D02A:5F7E:E887:3C9A (talk) 21:35, 7 June 2020 (UTC) Alright, I went ahead and replaced the image. If there's a good reason to change it back, someone should do so. 2601:1C2:680:DDE0:D02A:5F7E:E887:3C9A (talk) 04:33, 8 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
