Here we go again! Every time we undergo a change in our lifestyle, perhaps after a change of apartment, we waste an infinite amount of time choosing the best style of cushions for chairs in the kitchen. The desire to change becomes a challenge with ourselves. And it goes for a new haircut as well as for renovating the furniture in our home.

First steps of a conscious choice

Among a myriad of products on the market we will be tempted, as a first approach, to first identify shapes and colors and so the search begins. An analytical selection from millions of online information. It is at this moment that the private investigator in each of us is triggered! Photographs on Google images screen captures, sharing on private messaging channels between relatives and friends, requesting opinions on a round rather than square chair cushion and so on, without having a real guideline (don't worry, following this reading it you will emerge victorious).

After many searches on Google, we landed on Amazon! Have you ever tried to read, even just one of the names among the thousand sellers of cushions for chairs ? They range from a lyiuxing to a hengjiang. Unpronounceable names, vendors who open to sell anything today in a "bazaar" style and close the marketplace in less than 3 months. But the consumer does not know this, because on Amazon hengjiang which is in fact an Asian name, has the same identity as Paolo Rossi who has been working in the textile world for generations. Confusion reigns in our head.

You're almost on the edge of the precipice when, after comparing vendors after vendors (mostly importers of questionable quality products), you're tired and here comes the light: IKEA! "But why hadn't I thought of that before!"

Indeed, how many of you, at the end of this fateful journey, choose an IKEA chair cushion ? Simple. If you're lucky, you go to the nearest store, adapt yourself to the 3 models in 4 colors and you're done, put them in your cart and go to the cashier! Victory! You too will have brought home the same Made in chair cushions ???? like 80% of people spread over 6 continents!

Ikea vs Made in Italy

"While the non-Swedish multinational fills our homes with all the same furniture, in addition to the very "basic" design that we now call "Scandinavian style" and the multi-functionality of each item it produces, one of Ikea's flagships is the environmental sustainability.Perfect marketing if you think, for example, of all the solid wood that IKEA uses to create the kitchen tops: entire forests felled all over the world to bring an "excellent product" to the market at the best price. little, if you think of sustainability: the CO2 emitted by the transport of goods if the cushion padding is produced in Poland and the cushion covers in Singapore, subsequently distributed by road or air, in 53 countries around the world.
