I'm... puzzled, but also speechless. What were they expecting on a furniture site? Any chance these were bots? (Though I wouldn't discount human stupidity)
A bunch of people are a bit confused by large white search bars at the top of the screen, often mistaking them for the address bar.
Hypothesis: this phenomena has been exacerbated by browsers, which have trained people that URLs and search are the same thing by having them search using the address bar. Also explains people searching for website names on Google.
