Thank you for your interesting comment about older furniture being “stouter” since it was necessarily built to handle extremes of temperature before the advent of home air conditioning and furnace heating. I tell customers that today’s furniture is manufactured and trucked, and moved in non-climate controlled situations, but I forget that all the antiques out there certainly survived for decades or even hundreds of years without “climate control.” It is also true that “real furniture” is constructed of “real wood” which has the full “water permeability advantage” (small amounts of water flow through it without damage to the wood). But with modern furniture of which so much is constructed of pressboard–I am sure it is not as water permeable. So it is more prone to collapse. We unloaded a customer’s storage bin where the furniture had been in there for four years. The previous movers had improperly left on the shrink wrap. Water vapor must have gotten between the shrink wrap and the pressboard furniture, and the top of a dresser collapsed!
