"Theres a way more interesting story here than "company rips off mid century designer".  Joybird was formed by former Thrive furniture employees. Thrive was a USA-based company that manufactured in the US. Anyway, when they left Thrive, they supposedly stole furniture designs, used the same fabrics, copied their business model (and excellent 365 day return policy).  The founder of Thrive even said they embezzled money to start Joybird. And then Joybird undercut Thrives prices and, as far as I can tell, put them out of business. They're a complete and utter shit show. Would have been nicer to see more of ethical nightmare business practices and less about plywood and veneer. "
