Price range for retail seems to be $100-250 for IKEA stuff that will fall apart in 3 years, or $1,000+ for something better. Is there nothing in between? Would prefer to buy new with risk of bed bugs or other contaminants but open to other options if I’m missing something.

    Try thrift stores. A surprising amount of solid wood furniture ends up being resold. You might need to do some fixing up if you’re handy - sanding down and refinishing - but usually not. Usually some pretty big pieces for really cheap.
