Re: the comfortable couch company out of NC.. Any detail
Well, they have a lot of buzz on their website, but I am not familiar with their company. However, I watched their video and come away with this:
"We use only kiln dried hardwoods, certified to be grown in a sustainable manner in our frames"
Then in the video, they show a CNC 6-axis router cutting frame parts out of plywood. That is contradictory as the implication is solid hardwood by referencing 'kiln dried'. Plywood is not kiln-dried. The key word is SOLID hardwood if you want a top level build.
A bit later in the video they zoom over a sofa arm in leather and cut away from it. I see nail trim being used as a closure, rather than a welt trim and the nails being decorative. That's a definite shortcut.
Finally they use drop-on spring grids, not an 8-way suspension. I pretty much lost interest when I saw that...lol
My takeaway from spending 10 minutes on their site? They are a mid-level maker with a convincing promotional video. Neither on the top shelf nor the bottom. So ultimately depends on price paid for a unit compared to another mid-level producer.
