That's the kind of thing marketing never tells you, and it's exactly why the gap between a five hundred dollar sofa and a three thousand dollar one has nothing to do with what your hand feels when you sit down. In this one I flip the sofa over, cut through the fabric, and show you the four things actually driving that price gap: the frame material, the joinery, the spring system, and one federal labeling rule most buyers have never heard of. You'll learn the exact corner-lift test and the arm-press test you can do standing in a showroom, the two words to say to a salesman that force a real answer out of him, and why "eight-way hand-tied" isn't automatically better than a well-built sinuous spring system. If you've already got a sofa at home, I'll show you what to check tonight and one weekend fix that buys it years. 🪑🔨 Walt Furniture Judge exists so you stop paying showroom prices for dump-bound furniture. #OldCarpenter #FurnitureTruth #SofaBuyingGuide #HardwoodFrameVsParticleboard
