We spent way more than that on a "real" couch from a "real" furniture store and it's a total piece of shit. Was comfortable for a couple of months, and then completely fell apart. I just assume it's all cheap crap any more.

We're back to taking antiques from family members and just reupholstering. The only newer furniture we have that doesn't suck came from Pottery Barn about 10 years ago and has tags from North Carolina.
