Just off the top of my head:

- Inherited furniture or gifted furniture from parents

- Recovered / restored furniture

- Deal finding, estate sales, neighbors moving

Aside from electronics this accounts for most of the furniture in my house. My wife and I have been home owners for about 15 years now and we bought our first chair set in a store this year.

Prior to that, we bought a bedroom set from Rooms to Go when we got our first house.



Durable goods were also far less disposable then. For less particle board and plastic in items.
