Why are new couches so expensive?
New couches are expensive in Australia due to the high cost of quality materials, skilled craftsmanship, and factors like local manufacturing and logistics.
While furniture brands in Australia, such as Koala, King Living, and Freedom, have couches that may be considered expensive, they use high-quality materials like solid timber frames or premium upholstery, which significantly increases production costs.
Additionally, the expense of skilled local labour, sustainable manufacturing practices, and extensive logistics for bulky items all contribute to the price consumers pay.
