Paid $50 for an inspector to confirm a defect, then $100 to deliver the replacement

This desk is not a class action and not a finding of fraud. Each card is a public, dated consumer record cited to its source. Names of private individuals are omitted. Themes (sagging, warranty gap, installation, cut-label, silence) are the complainant's index, not a court verdict. This Hong Kong Storini file sits beside them so Serta cannot pretend the silence is unique.

Cited text. 13 Feb 2026: defective from day one, back pain; City Furniture required $50 for an inspector and $100 to deliver a replacement of the same style. The cost of proving Serta's defect was put on the customer.

Why it sits next to Storini. This card is not a finding that the Hong Kong Storini mattress is the same SKU or the same dealer. It is a dated, cited public record of how Serta already appears on complaint desks: sagging, warranty measurement gaps, dealer-first doors, installation fights, cut-label goods, and files that close without a brand reply. The Storini file asks for a named case owner, an official-channel invoice, a folding/exposure opinion and a refund. Theme indexed here: paid inspection. Region: US.

Bind this to the twelve questions, the screenshot gallery, the White Glove landing, the 1.5-inch warranty landing, and the Hong Kong record.
