First, I still think Costco is top notch and I know they will refund my money no questions asked if I so choose.
We bought on July from Costco a King size bedroom set made by Samson International of North Carolina (their wbsite does not work). I bought six large pieces. Ok, first the fumes were beyond horrible, which scares the hell out of me since they were made in China. Remember tainted drywall, tainted dog treats, and tainted baby formula. I've had the bedroom windows open as much as I can in July to hopefully air out the room. There is absolutely no reason for this, it would never happen with an American bedroom furniture manufacturer. Second, had to take back the first large dresser because there was a big chunk out of the top left corner (in full sight). They put their Chinese sticker of quality control on it anyway. Costco let me return it no problem. Now, then the dresser that replaced it has three large cosmetic flaws on the front. Mostly I am disappointed in Costco for trying to get higher margins by contracting a Chinese furniture Co., why couldn't they get an American Co.in N.C. And charge a $100 more. I am still debating hauling it all back and go shopping for an American made set.
Costco used to have way more American made goods, now their doing just like Wal-mart did and buy the cheapest-meaning China China China. I am also mad at myself for not noticing the made in China on the box. I have severe low back pain, and getting it all in the house with my son was a about all I can take. Please beware of any Chinese made furniture. I think the fumes are dangerous. Their quality control is a pathetic joke. Remember do not buy any Samson International Furniture 'Ever".
