"The entire tone of the article sounds like everything Joybird does is evil and as is if all of their customers must be morons when it comes to purchasing furniture or anything else.  Most people understand that there is a "cost" associated with more affordable furniture.  And nitpicking the company description because it is a bit quirky is just petty. They make good looking furniture for a decent price and treat their customers as well as employees fairly.  Btw, made in Mexico does benefit the US more so than made in China, by providing work and a better a working environment to our neighbor.  It's like when your next door neighbors fix up their houses.  It increases your home value as well."
