00:00All our furniture is practically designed for obsolescence.
00:04God, I knew it. It felt way too light when we took it out of the packaging.
00:08How's your return policy?
00:11Frustrating at best.
00:13It costs more to send it back and have us restock it than you bought it for.
00:17So honestly, you're better off just chucking this stuff into the garbage.
00:22Everyone else does.
00:23What? No, come on. That's wrong.
00:25It's what we would have done anyway if you sent it back.
00:28There's about 12 billion tons of wayhort,
00:30DIY buttrests, DIY sleep surfaces, and DIY dressers that won't close right,
00:37creating mountains of solid waste in landfills all over the country.
00:41Just a bunch of big stinking piles,
00:44taking decades to decompose and release harmful chemicals into the environment.
