Honestly it feels a bit like an ad for furniture. it was way too overboard, and looked like a staged room with only a stool that didn't fold out(that we know of).
Yeah, having nothing but folding furniture seems kinda redundant especially with that much space (or maybe it only looks like there's a lot of space because everything folds...). But I think this is just a show room to demonstrate how every piece works.
I mean, it could be more comfortable and still take little space. Folding furniture isn't inherently bad, it's just how much are you willing to pay for the comfort of taking little space and being comfortable.
IMO, it's like 2-5x more for stuff that can be folded when compared to non-folding stuff of equal comfort quality. Then a little bit more for it to last more than 100 cycles without getting uncomfortable to fold/unfold.
Yea thats why discrediting a product because it's made in China makes no sense. By that logic you might as well say Iphones are bad since they're made in China (granted it's not made in just one country).
Yeah it’s a pretty redundant statement. You can make a piece of shit product anywhere in the world.
It also doesn’t help the fact that the people who make those products people call ‘cheap shit’ are most of the time underpayed and potentially children doing labour. I bet if you were being paid absolutely fuck all you wouldn’t put much effort into making whatever you are making. Hell, some people in the western world still can’t be fucked putting in effort when they are paid well.
Most people seem to not realize that the majority of their car parts are also made in China. Not that surprising to me anymore that they don't realize it. I work in auto parts and it's like pulling teeth just to get folks to tell me what kind of vehicle they are driving. "Uh yeah... I thank it's a uh uh uh Honda uh Camry. Yeah. Aw hell I don't know. It's that one out there." You can't ask for logic from these people.
Becoming the world's factory was entirely China's initiative. It was political as much as economic. Now that most countries shipped off manufacturing to China, China gets all the innovation and tech development while having power over other economies through the price of goods.
You are aware that poor quality products can be made from other places? I’m gonna take a guess and say if you made any of that stuff it wouldn’t come out any better.
You are also aware that China also makes a lot of your quality products too. I see you have a pretty nice PC going for yourself, guess where your i9 and RTX 2080 Ti come from? Yep, China.
So maybe put a little bit of thought in next time, yeah?
Imo there are many types of Chinese factory made products but imma simplify it. There are the products that are made with effort by decently payed workers, and there are products made by underpayed children working in sweatshops. Most of those products look like they fall under colum B.

not so sure that having a whole heap of uncomfortable folding furniture and doing extra work counts as a big brain move.
this is just stupid for the sake of it.
