Unique market analysis: Sofa Tables

Price and rating are only weakly linked here (correlation ≈ -0.10). In Sofa Tables, you should not assume “more expensive = better reviewed.” Score and review depth are the better filters. Of the 17 listings, 5 rate 4.5★ or higher, 2 have 1,000+ reviews, and 12 still have under 50 reviews (treat those as early-signal products).
