These are absolutely god-awful looking sectionals (
rovelab.com), and the model of mail-order dense memory foam furniture/mattresses is honestly kinda sad, but is the result of the furniture/upholstery industry racing to the bottom.
It's not even that $1000 is a lot to spend on a couch or anything, it's that the quality of everything has gone to absolute shit. These will have a lifespan of 2-3 years and be uncomfortable the entire time, but your alternative is other mail-order memory foam cubes or playing the Wayfair chinese shitscam lottery. It's not until you're paying insane markups in the $5K+ range where you can anticipate not just getting low-quality Chinese rebadges, and even then you're usually limited by availability/options.
The rare few exceptions struggle to not be outclassed by SEO, not helped by the sea of influencers and shills like Linus aggressively promoting crap brands at scale.
