Would you prefer a Sofa As A Service?

Our cheap ikea couch keeps lasting, preventing us from buying a nice, new one. We can't throw it out of it's not broken.

It is long known that companies who sell good quality products go out of business after a couple decades at most, they saturate their market and because no one needs to renew, the company dies.

Ironically ikea HAS to sell quality (for price) because they are such a big brand. Their stuff is great quality for price, so people keep coming back for upgrades, when they can afford it.

I've had my 65" LED Samsung smart TV for almost 10 years now... it cost about $800 back then. I thought about replacing it recently, but decided against it because it's working great and I don't feel like I'd be gaining much to buy a newer TV. Technology hasn't really advanced that much since 2014...

> I always wonder why people want some of these items to last forever.

My friend had a NEW Ford that went to the workshop more than 10 times in the first year of use. It's about trust that I will turn on the device and it will work.

> I want new tech

Buy it. I met people who sold their old iPhone and bought a new model every year, nothing against that. My problem is if the IPhone in this first year broke two or more times like my Sansumg.

> Are you going to stick with that 10 year old plasma TV?

Absolutely. It cost me the price of a power supply repair. The display is beautiful and the interface is crapware free.

> I want new tech, and this stuff moves fast.

True! Advertising tech is ever evolving.

The irony here especially with furniture is that if you’re rich enough to buy real quality design pieces you’ll sell them for more than you bought them for when you’re ready to move on
