Avatar

• Realistic avatar
• A photorealistic older man with short white-grey hair, in a red-and-black plaid flannel shirt in most thumbnails or a canvas workshop apron, shown in a dark showroom, a warehouse store aisle or a sawdust-covered workshop.

Format

A ranked buying guide: the verdict first, a story of a customer's broken sofa or recliner, then brands or stores ranked by what a frame teardown shows; it closes on a membership pitch with an on-screen QR code.
