Which of the following materials is NOT typically found in attics or basements?

New furniture is not typically found in attics or basements primarily because these areas are usually reserved for items that are either not frequently used or are in storage. Attics and basements often serve as spaces for long-term storage of older items, such as seasonal decorations, furniture that is no longer in regular use, and even some waste materials that may be kept for various reasons.

In contrast, new furniture is typically kept in living areas where it can be used immediately, rather than being stored away in less accessible parts of the home. The purpose of attics and basements is generally for items that either do not require immediate access or are being held for future use, so the presence of new furniture in these areas is uncommon.
