In the month after the show aired, sales of the items nearly quadrupled, according to the store. Visiting the housewares emporium Domain, Queer Eye's interior designer, Thom Filicia, got excited about the store's red Victoria settee ($3,099) and dubbed it a "chofa" (bigger than a chair, smaller than a sofa).
