It was definitely a cheapo couch! the defendant was trying to rip them off I agree with the plaintiffs 100% they wanted a nice type firm couch that they didn't have to make adjustments with and they were willing to pay the price for it and that's not what they got.
Who ever handmade this it was probably there first time making a piece of furniture. Looks like they bought the materials from Walmart lol i true believe the 6K was labor and not quality of the materials
I've purchased couches for under $1000 that looked way better. Those were the lumpiest cushions I've ever seen. Looked as if they'd come off an old, used sofa.
Agreed, some people are just plain ignorant. It doesn't matter if they wouldn't spend $6000 on a sofa, the defendants did and they should get what they were promised. It really isn't that complicated.
but the verdict should have nothing to do with the price otherwise we can all sue our landlords , our dentists , and our auto dealer and our auto mechanics and win every time .
I like in the opening statement plaintiffs said their friends laughed at their sofa when they seen it , meaning they were shamed because they spent $6 grand on a couch. Is that what this case really about? They should have inspected it at delivery and sent it back.
@BillMoran3219 They DID inspect it at the first delivery, and complained. The company took it back right then. The company supposedly reworked it, and brought it a second time. It still wasn't to their satisfaction, so they stopped payment on the check, and sued.

I have two custom sofas that arrived in perfect condition. I ordered them during Covid so I didn’t even see the floor model. If my sofas looked like the one in court I would leave it on the curb.
You can see the cushions are misaligned, the left cushions bottom corner was pushed back, while the right cushions bottom corner was pulled out more. I’m really surprised the judge didn’t take that into account with the photos.
The people arguing “woe is them since they can afford to spend $6000 on a couch” are the same people who would be commenting “too bad, get over it” if it cost $600. Adjust your mind to the fact that there are people who will spend money for quality goods. Even the judge acknowledges that this couch was poorly made.
That was not a $6000 couch. The defendant was milking it and trying to get more out of that couch. That couch looked liked it may have been worth between $1500-$1800.
price dont matter . judges dont get to tell us what we can sell stuff for . this verdict was totally wrong and the plaintiffs write bad checks which is a crime but this judge did not care .
@@marleonetti7she didn’t tell you what you can sell it for. She said it wasn’t worth what you sold it for. You took a gamble trying to make bank and lost, get over it.
$6K for a couch??!!! Holy crap! I always try to guess, (based on the announcer's opening statements when the litigants enter the courtroom) of where I think the case is going. 😉 And my feelings were that the plaintiffs were being ridiculous, picky "Karens", who were impossible to please under any circumstances.🙈🙉🙊 Wow, was I wrong on this one... When the spray bottle came out, it was obvious that this guy was scamming to get his money right now, or he wasn't leaving. I don't blame the plaintiffs one bit for putting a stop payment on that check. And I'd be surprised if this scammer even gets $500 for that POS couch. And realistically, it looks like a really comfortable couch, and I'm not picky about the looks. I have a 75# lap dog, so all of my furniture has covers & blankets on them to keep them from getting dirty and damaged. Yeah, I'd pay $500 for that couch, delivered.😉
Lol. Loved your post, and I agree. Those pillows were filled with latex foam scraps that you can buy retail for $15 for a 50-gallon garbage bag. A good sofa would be filled with perfectly cut latex foam.
It's a six thousand dollar sofa? Wow, I paid that much for my car. On the other hand, I'm still driving it after 15 years, how long will that sofa last? If I paid 6 grand for a sofa, I wouldn't want to be straightening it every time someone sits on it, no way.
10 years ago, my sister bought a $4000 sofa and I was bewildered. However 10 years later it still is so comfortable and looks great. Good quality things are expensive.
$6000???? For a couch??? Lol I wouldn’t do it but if you’re willing to pay that much you should definitely get what you ask for. I think they were scammed and taken advantage of. They could’ve just went to Ashley furniture for something much better than that.
For $6,000.... you get to be picky. Couch dude was a sheister and probably needed that sale to stave off bankruptcy. On the other hand, you could buy probably 3 sectionals for that money anywhere else.
@@StevenDoh Right. The point isn’t lost on me. They saw it beforehand and still bought it. I think it was a lot of buyer’s remorse and the defendant didn’t help himself out any.
You know, it's always some low life trying to tell people how to live their lives. You will pay for attacking my Faith unprovoked grandma. Your claim you're a decent person yet you're judging me for a photo I used not knowing the meaning behind it.
I spent 10k on a sofa, love seat and atumun and they came with 6 pillows. It's not worth the money but when is stuff these days, but it is very good quality. It's down filled and very comfy.
I am glad they got their money back. But, am surprised that when they bought it, they, said, "make sure there are no lumps"..because who says or thinks that?
My parents spend upwards of 20 grand to furnish our kitchen and living room, but granted it didn’t look like your average bob’s discount furniture it’s Scandinavian crafted with custom fabric. 😂
Those pillows were filled with foam scraps! You can buy a 50 gallon garbage bag of those retail for $15. They should have been latex foam cut perfectly. The defendant will sell that couch as new. Horrible.
I believe the defendant: If you have a couch with loose cushions and you randomly just throw those cushions on that couch, they will indeed look crooked and there can very well be gaps. What you need to do, is place the cushions nicely and mindfully and THEN you should get them nice and straight. The pictures the plaintiffs brought are no good for that reason. And the defendant was too polite when taking his picture and should have first straightened the cushions. The overfilling on the other hand seems like a bad thing. However: if it is known to be a kind of filling that will dent quickly, the is something to be said for having them a bit too full at first, so they will even out nicely when they are used. THEN the question becomes: should the manufacturer have used that stuffing in a couch that costs $6000. (Even though I myself don’t spend that amount on a couch, because it is an item that must be USED (without living on the edge of a heart attack whenever there is a drink, food, a pet, a toddler, a shoe….near that couch!), I do know that $6000 is not outrageous either for a couch)
But he was there with the tech. Like the judge said why couldn’t he fix it an show them nothing wrong with it just need a fluff. An then take a pic but his own pic he took is just like the plaintiff pics
Go to a low quality retail shop, get crap. That the Owner said that the sofa was built per the buyers specs is ridiculous. The buyers are not designers and likely know nothing about sofas. The Owner is supposed to be the expert. Also, for a sofa that large, $6 k is not a lot of money.
@@StevenDohagreed. People are acting like just because they can’t afford this couch, that it’s ridiculous someone else spent the money on it. I expect that I get what I want for the amount of money that they spent
Rich people problems. Simplify your life and go to a store...ok, make it a "fancy" store and buy a couch there. I guess I just don't understand this behavior.
I think the plaintiffs should take the cushions in question (all of them) to a shop that does custom foam sofa cushions in varying firmness. The cushions clearly are *NOT filled with foam rubber material, i.e., a SOLID piece of foam.*
Hard disagree. The plaintiffs didn't put those cushions in right and thats why it looked like that. The defendants picture looked legit. Wrong decision, JM. 😢
Even if I had $6000 to spend on a sofa, I wouldnt! I would far rather spend $1500, and get the very same thing, They just had there noses put out of joint because there `friends` laughed at them! maybe they should look for new friends instead!?
I didn't see anything spectacular about the sofa seeing as it was custom made and the comfort was the issue. If the friends laughed it was at them for being foolish when its an Ashley's furniture on every online block 🙄
I mean I know they were looking for something specific but they’re really nitpicking the hell out of the sofa. Personally I don’t think the couch is terrible. I’m surprised they didn’t just make their own so they can’t complain as much as they have.
I disagree, I don't think they're nitpicking. When you buy a bespoke premium piece of furniture you expect to get that. If the seller can't produce what he's promising, he's at fault. If they were complaining about a $500 sofa, sure I'd agree with nitpicking, however not here in this case where they spent $6000 on a promised outcome.
That looks like a $700 Biglots sectional
I don’t even think big lots has them this bad to be completely honest

Of course most of the price was labor. Have you ever sewn in piping around ANY type of cushion???? It isn't an easy job.@@granturismo315

The defendant should have told them he couldn't help them after they had described the magical couch they wanted.
Plaintiffs are the type that buy a BMW and then complain about high maintenance costs.
I want a couch that provides me what i want for the rest of my life 😂😂
You can! My best friend has one. They use latex foam to fill it. Perfect. Not filled with cheap scrap like this.
Hahaha so true

I bought a custom couch and it’s perfect. This store owner is full of it. I agree with the customer

For all the people saying they spent too much on a sofa, they have a right to buy a quality product. This guy sent garbage with no quality
Agreed, some people are just plain ignorant. It doesn't matter if they wouldn't spend $6000 on a sofa, the defendants did and they should get what they were promised. It really isn't that complicated.
That definitely was an $1800 couch he tried to bank $4200 on. That couch was pretty pathetic for the price.

For $6000 you could get a top brand leather sofa, not a bunch of hessian potato sacks that are badly filled and lumpy, this is just bad workmanship...
That couch didn’t look great. $6000 for a couch isn’t unreasonable, I’d say that’s a mid-level couch, not exactly high end.
