My partner and I fell in love with and tried to justify financing this designer couch that was going for 50% MSRP, but ultimately decided against it for one reason: we would never be happy again. Our lives would be so involved with maintaining that couch and the second our cats scratched it we would’ve been launched into misery.

Still, it’s a beautiful couch and it inspired us to dream about a future where we could enjoy it every day.

I feel this 💯 How much I have to worry about something is an essential factor in my buying process.

Yeah, beauty can come at a great cost and isn’t always worth it. I honestly wish that material care was something more consumers were educated about during their buying process. It has a huge impact on the lived experience with a given product!
