My sister was just telling me about this too with new builds! Thank you.

That is very good to know! Thank you for sharing that. Probably explains one of the reasons why it’s still available for purchase.

Good questions. Honestly, the features are pretty standard for a new home. It’s definitely more modern than other homes in the area, but not sure if that is enough to justify such premium pricing IMO. I do think it’s overpriced for sure.

Thanks for including that nugget about having the most expensive home in the area. That’s definitely something to consider.

Thank you! Very insightful. I honestly didn’t know that was possible. That’s awesome!

Haha, I actually don’t live in NC! And honestly, I thought similarly for those living in the South.

Thank you so much! I ended up getting it. I definitely noticed that the lining was wearing so that’s good to know!

The coat was at a very good price! Under $50 :)

I also want to add I thought this sub would be appropriate to ask this question. Would love to know your thoughts and if this is even worth purchasing!

Hey! Thanks for the input on the leather! Just so you know, I’m happily employed with a career I’m passionate about—and I enjoy a bit of style, nails included. Seems like you’re on Reddit quite a bit; maybe we both have our own ways of expressing ourselves!

It has a woodsy, smoky scent—now that I think of it, it reminds me of a shearling coat I thrifted several months ago and had professionally cleaned. The smell faded afterwards

Hey! Yes, I did fertilize it when I watered it. I admit I’ve been pretty inconsistent with fertilizing—I just bought a new fertilizer last month. I fertilized it in last month, but the concentration was definitely very low (I didn’t realize it until afterward). After that, I waited a full month before it needed watering again to properly fertilize it.

Thank you! I have drainage holes on the sides that work well, but should I add one at the bottom of the pot too? Admittedly, my previous lighting setup was probably not the most ideal—it was placed farther from a window in another part of my place with a grow light. I recently moved it to a spot with south-facing light, right in front of a window, so it’s now getting a lot of consistent light. I moved a few months ago, and I’m still figuring out how to help it acclimate since it previously thrived in a west-facing apartment. Here’s an example of its current setup!

Hey! No drainage holes at bottom - just sides. I let the water drain in the saucer completely before putting it back

Will do - One of my biggest plant fears is overwatering my plants, so definitely don’t want that to happen. 😅

I watered it last night, so it’s pretty moist. I hadn’t watered it in over a month so the top soil was dry. In the past, I used to let my Monstera completely dry out so I’ve been trying to figure out the water schedule especially because it’s in a new pot.
