interior decorating business. My wife has noted the drop in quality all over and particularly notes the shoddy quality/build of furniture from wayfair. The goods at pottery barn, crate and barrel, have gone down as well. Gotta be private equity.
I've never expected high quality from IKEA though. Always seemed like college furniture to me.
