Good thing those furniture sets are ugly as heck, isn't it?

I had the same thought.

But the furniture sales companies are getting the product dirt-cheap and selling it with very healthy markups, so I imagine that soon all of the bulk sales companies will be selling 100% imports.

I looked at another company, Bombay Company, and they are already 90% imports overall.

Depressing, because we can make good furniture here in the U.S. though admittedly most of what we have been making here in the U.S. for the last 20 years has been largely low quality product.
