Quality and Junk

Tweet

I was watching one of my favorite YouTube content creators, Taco Stacks*, and he had parked to go across the street to pick up a bookshelf. In picking it up he made the comment that you could sure tell the difference between quality furniture and junk. I remember when I was a child and the furniture was heavy and bulky. Now they are light and if you aren't careful you could put a hand right through it. Nearly. Things just are not made as well and are not meant to last. Where the thing my family bought when I was young are still around and being used. They used to use real wood and not particle board. Now you pay a real premium for better quality furniture. Do you see the difference? *Taco Stack is a YT content creator who picks up treasures from abandoned storage units, estate sales, auctions, and people's trash. He sells them at flea markets. He lives in Pennsylvania and is in his 30s.
