Why are new couches so expensive?
New couches are expensive because they require high-quality materials, skilled labor, and costly transportation.
High-quality couches use durable hardwood frames, premium fabrics, and dense cushioning, all of which drive up manufacturing costs. Skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail are necessary for both comfort and longevity, increasing labor expenses.
Additionally, the bulky size and weight of couches make shipping and delivery more expensive, with supply chain disruptions and higher labor standards in the U.S. further impacting the final price.
