Yep, there are small furniture manufacturers all over the place where I live. We bought our couch from one of them. $5k for a couch smaller than a sectional from costco. But it’s repairable has a long warranty and is much more durable and comfortable.
We also have a fine wood furniture place that does solid wood stuff. $10k for a bedroom set. I’ll stick with ikea until the kids move out.

Not as easily anymore. It used to be easy to find wooden furniture used for low prices. Not so much anymore.

The market has shrunk and the prices have gone up… there are still some good items on the second hand market, at times, depending on location.
