I like the idea of not buying disposable furnitures, especially when there are alternatives at the same price. I can stand on my current desk (the ikea kitchen table) with my full weight and probably jump on it, the previous one was bowing if I did as little as resting my elbows on it

The concept of disposable furniture is wild to me. As if fast fashion weren't wasteful enough, now we have fast furniture??
