But when we ordered a sofa trundle bed we ran up against a supply chain bottleneck. Recently, the CBS news program, 60 Minutes , ran a piece describing the very problem with global supply chain bottlenecks in the port of Los Angeles that likely had befouled our sofabed purchase. We repainted. No problem. We then ordered it.
