I say hot because I like the design but why should anything that is not plated in gold or encrusted in diamonds cost that much?

Hi,

You have the price incorrect. It's $1,699, add in $579 if you want cushions (multiple options exist in terms of color and fabric).

Thanks Bill. Design Public's web site (use the link under the image) makes it seem that the frame is $1500 and the cushions another 2k. Is that info incorrect?

To me, that looks a lot like the Ikea Lillberg. It costs $280. If I liked the design (I don't), I'd be willing to squint a little.
