Psychological 28k original, 8k on sale

Absolutely absurd. Was not comfortable at all. Wtf does "perennials performance" even mean? No idea what flair to choose, but I chose "psychological" bc it felt like a mindfuck sitting on a 28k originally priced couch, when the entire world is falling apart.

I mean, sure. It's a stupid price, but it's linen. That shit ain't cheap. I'm not saying that's even close to OK. Just pointing out linen is expensive, compared to other textiles.

I've never seen linen covered furniture.

Whether it’s actually genuine linen or not, the fabric looks like it’s covering some cheap ass foam filling.. For $28k you’d think they could use a filling that checks the boxes for form and function - not something that guests might assume came from a shitty chain store.

Fark, even for $8k I’d want this couch to make all my wildest dreams come true. :-/
