They still have hardwood furniture though. No one's forcing anyone to buy the cheap plywood ones.

They definitely have solid wood furniture - I have some of it. But the solid wood furniture pieces I've seen are all pine. Pine is not a hardwood.

Edit: ah, they've got some acacia pieces (dining room pieces, mostly).

What hard wood do they have other than the basic acacia pieces?
