Man Buys Foldable House On Amazon For Rs 21 Lakh; Video Gains Nearly 20 Million Views
Amazon, renowned for its rapid delivery of a wide range of products, is making waves with a new endeavor: delivering homes straight to your doorstep. Yes, that's right.?This groundbreaking service, currently accessible in certain countries such as the USA, offers prefabricated homes priced roughly between roughly $12,500 and $50,000.
His "tiny home" video viral
Recently, a 23-year-old Tiktoker in the US shared a video showcasing his new home that he 'purchased' from Amazon. And, the?product that has been gaining attention is the ¡°Zolyndo portable prefabricated tiny home.¡±
'¡®I just bought a house on Amazon. I didn't even think twice about it,'' Jeffrey Bryant from Los Angeles said in the TikTok video which has gone viral.?His videos detailing the process gained nearly 20 million views.
According to Metro, the house is a fold-out flat measuring 16.5ft by 20ft, worth $26,000 (Rs 21,37,416). Described as a standard tiny home, it features 2 bedrooms, 1 living room, 1 bathroom, and a kitchen.
The listing emphasises easy transportation, a multi-window/door configuration, and complete electrical wiring. Constructed from materials like metal, glass, and plastic, these homes also include amenities such as hot and cold water, drainage, and insulation pipes.
Netizens divided?
Reviews on these products, however, vary, with some users praising their convenience while others criticise them as overpriced. Unlike traditional houses that can be difficult to relocate, these portable prefabricated homes appeal to individuals who prefer a mobile lifestyle while still desiring a permanent dwelling.
One person who reviewed the house on Amazon said, ''Love it! It's affordable and fits me and my dog! Highly recommended.'' However, not many on the internet were convinced and called it a ''waste of money.''
Bryant explained his decision to the New York Post, stating, ''I saw this YouTuber unboxing his Amazon home. And I ran to the website to get one, too.'' He mentioned that he still needs to complete all the electrical and plumbing work on the house. In a follow-up video, he mentioned that he doesn't plan to live in it himself but intends to convert it into an Airbnb for displaced people or those facing homelessness.
