   OPINION & ORDER

CARMAN, Judge:

Plaintiff Legacy Classic Furniture, Inc. (“Plaintiff’ or “Legacy”) disputes the results of the first court-ordered remand to the United States Department of Commerce (“Commerce”) regarding a scope determination in the antidumping duty order covering wooden bedroom furniture from China. Bedroom Furniture from the People’s Republic of China: Scope Ruling on Legacy Classic Furniture, Inc. ’s Heritage Court Bench (Nov. 22, 2010) {“Final Scope Ruling ”); Notice of Amended Final Determination of Sales at Less Than Fair Value and Antidumping Duty Order: Wooden Bedroom Furniture from the People’s Republic of China, 70 Fed. Reg. 329 (Jan. 4, 2005) {“WBF Order”). Pursuant to Plaintiffs motion for judgment on the agency record challenging Commerce’s Final Scope Ruling, the Court sustained in part and remanded in part this case in Slip Opinion 11-157.

In Legacy I, the Court sustained Commerce’s determination that the factors set forth in 19 C.F.R. § 351.225(k)(l) are not dispositive but remanded for reconsideration Commerce’s determination that the factors set forth in 19 C.F.R. § 351.225(k)(2) are dispositive. Accordingly, the Court set aside Commerce’s determination that the Heritage Court Bench fell within the scope of the WBF Order and instructed Commerce to reconsider each of the factors listed under 19 C.F.R. § 351.225(k)(2) and to take into account in its analysis all of the evidence on the record. Commerce issued its Final Results of Redetermination Pursuant to Court Order (Mar. 26, 2012) (“Remand Results ”), affirming its original determination that the Heritage Court Bench is within the scope of the WBF Order.

Upon review of the Remand Results, upon further examination of the record, and upon further consideration of the unique circumstances presented in this case, the Court reconsiders its initial decision regarding the (k)(l) factors and remands to Commerce to explain its policy where general language in the scope section of an antidumping duty order can be read to include the product at issue but other language in the scope section specifically excludes the product at issue. The Court also remands the (k)(2) factors because Commerce’s conclusion in its Remand Results that the Heritage Court Bench is more like a chest than a bench is not supported by evidence on the record.

Background

The product at issue is Legacy’s Heritage Court Bench — a piece of furniture that both sides agree serves simultaneously as a seating bench and a storage unit. It is described as “a backless wooden seating bench measuring 50 inches wide by 19 inches tall by 20 inches deep.” Final Scope Ruling at 2. The body of the bench is made from “solid hardwood with Okume Mahogany veneers and a cocoa brown wood finish.” Id. It has a top that consists “entirely of a padded leather surface,” is attached by hinges to the base, and has a cedar-lined interior storage area. Id. The scope of the WBF Order includes only specified chests but explicitly excludes all seating furniture, including benches. Id. at 3.

Commerce evaluated whether the Heritage Court Bench was within the scope of the WBF Order according to the factors and procedure set out in 19 C.F.R. § 351.225(k). Final Scope Ruling at 4. This regulation specifies that when Commerce is “considering whether a particular product is included within the scope of an order,” it will “take into account” the following factors: “(1) The descriptions of the merchandise contained in the petition, the initial investigation, and the determinations of the Secretary (including prior scope determinations) and the Commission.” 19 C.F.R. § 351.225(k)(l). Commerce determined that the (k)(l) factors were not dispositive. Final Scope Ruling at 6. Thus Commerce proceeded to the next subsection of factors: “(i) [t]he physical characteristics of the product; (ii) [t]he expectations of the ultimate purchasers; (iii) [t]he ultimate use of the product; (iv) [t]he channels of trade in which the product is sold; and (v) [t]he manner in which the product is advertised and displayed.” 19 C.F.R. § 351.225(k)(2). In its Remand Results, Commerce found that “the record is mixed with respect to the criterion under 19 C.F.R. § 351.225(k)(2)(iv) and (v),” but “[did] not find that this mixed record is enough to change the conclusions reached with respect to the criterion under 19 C.F.R. § 351.225(k)(2)(i-iii)Remand Results at 18.

Standard of Review

The Court has jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c) (2006). For scope determinations, the Court sustains determinations, findings or conclusions of Commerce unless they are “unsupported by substantial evidence on the record, or otherwise not in accordance with law.” 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(b)(l)(B)(i). Courts “look for a reasoned analysis or explanation for an agency’s decision as a way to determine whether a particular decision is arbitrary, capricious or an abuse of discretion.” Wheatland Tube Co. v. United States, 161 F.3d 1365, 1369 (Fed.Cir.1998) (“Wheat-land Tube ”).

Discussion

I. Redetermination of the (k)(2) Factors

This Court reviews Commerce’s Remand Results and corresponding comments. Commerce conceded that the record is inconclusive for the two factors of (iv) channels of trade and (v) manner displayed and advertised. Remand Results at 14-17. Therefore Commerce made its redetermination upon the three factors of (i) physical characteristics, (ii) customer expectations, and (iii) ultimate use. This Court reviews all the factors upon which Commerce based its redetermination. Each factor will be addressed in turn.

A. Physical Characteristics of the Product

Regarding the factor of physical characteristics of the product, Commerce determined that “the primary element of the product is its box structure and lid, elements consistent with certain storage chests.” Remand Results at 7. Plaintiff countered that “[t]he shape and height of the Heritage Court Bench and its other physical characteristics are entirely consistent with those of a bench.” Pl.’s Comments in Opp’n to Final Results of Rede: termination Pursuant to Court Order (“Pl.’s Opp’n”) at 5. Further, Plaintiff advanced that “[t]he fact that the Heritage Court Bench would continue to fulfill its primary function as a bench even without its storage component supports the contrary position that its function as a bench is the primary element.” Pl.’s Opp’n at 7. While it has a rectangular shape and the seat does function as a lid for the storage area, the record clearly indicates that the Heritage Court Bench — case in point, the name of the product — is undisputedly a bench. Commerce conceded that the Heritage Court Bench “has some, albeit limited, attributes of an excluded product” (e.g., a bench) but nevertheless concluded that the product “possesses all of the physical characteristics of a subject chest.” Remand Results at 7.

Upon review of the numerous definitions of the subject chests in the WBF Order, contrary to Commerce’s conclusion, the Heritage Court Bench does not possess all of the physical characteristics of any of the subject chests. In fact, the Heritage Court Bench only arguably fits into the residual provision of a footnoted definition of a general chest. See WBF Order at 332, n.5. In contrast, the Heritage Court Bench not only unambiguously falls under the explicit exclusion for a “bench” but also the basket provision for all “seating furniture” under the list of items that is excluded from the scope. Id. (“The scope of the Petition excludes ... benches ... and other seating furniture.”)

In support of its conclusion, Commerce stated that

simply because one could sit on the product does not mean it should principally be viewed as seating furniture that is excluded from the scope. If that were the case, the language in the scope covering a large box with a lid would be nullified because many boxes with a flat lid could be used for seating even if they do not come with a padded leather covering.

Remand Results at 6. Commerce’s speculation is specious. First, the product at issue does indeed have a padded leather covering so speculating that the scope language would be nullified if a product did not have a padded leather covering is fallacious. Determining that the Heritage Court Bench is outside of the scope will not open the floodgate of exclusions to any product that can be sat upon. For example, a milk crate can be sat upon but that does not make it seating furniture. The determinative factor is that the furniture is designed for seating. The Heritage Court Bench is seating furniture precisely and simply because it is designed with padded leather covering for seating. The seating function is not incidental as Commerce insinuated in its conclusion. The record clearly indicates that seating is one of the main functions of the Heritage Court Bench. Furthermore, the record also demonstrates that the padded leather covering is one of the main design features of the product. The Court finds Commerce’s reasoning that the seating function is incidental or secondary to the Heritage Court Bench to be arbitrary and capricious. Therefore, Commerce’s conclusion that the most prominent physical characteristic is the box with the lid must be remanded for further consideration.

B. Expectations of the Ultimate Purchasers

Regarding the factor of customer expectations of the product, Commerce admitted that there is “no direct evidence on the record regarding the expectations of the ultimate purchasers.” Remand Results at 8 (quoting Final Scope Ruling at 10). Using the same analysis from the Final Scope Ruling, Commerce submitted that

record evidence does not demonstrate that the oblong (rectangular) shape and height of the product under consideration is necessarily atypical of the type of storage chest that might be used at the end of a bed.... Moreover, it is reasonable to believe that bedroom storage chests with lids that are used at the end of beds would be wider than tall to be flush with the height and width of typical beds.

Id. at 8-9. Plaintiff countered that Commerce ignored its advertisement stating “[t]he Heritage Court Storage Bench offers timeless style and valuable storage for any room. Place at the foot of your bed, in a hallway, or make this bench a part of your living room ensemble.” Pl.’s Opp’n at 9 (quoting Scope Requést, Ex. 9). Commerce claimed that “consumers can view the product on websites under a tab labeled ‘Seating’ or a tab labeled ‘Bedroom.’ ” Remand Results at 9. Plaintiff countered, however, that under the “Bedroom” tab, there is a “Benches” sub-tab, where the Heritage Court Bench is located. PL’s Opp’n at 10. Plaintiff further pointed out that there is a separate tab for “Bedroom Chests” and the Heritage Court Bench is not located there. Id. The Court agrees with Plaintiff that Commerce disregarded evidence placed on the record by Plaintiff. From a plain reading of the scope language, the Court recognizes that mere placement of seating furniture in a bedroom does not remove it from the scope exclusion of the WBF Order.

Plaintiff contended that the Heritage Court Bench has the dimensions typical of a bench but atypical of a chest. PL’s Opp’n at 10. The Court agrees. The dimensions listed in the scope of the WBF Order describe the subject chest as “a case piece taller than it is wide,” but the Heritage Court Bench is just the opposite: a bench wider (50 inches) than it is tall (19 inches). WBF Order at 332, n.5. Thus, Commerce’s conclusion that the Heritage Court Bench has the dimensions typical of a subject chest is not supported by the record. Rather there appears to be ample support on the record for Plaintiffs proposition that the Heritage Court Bench’s most prominent features are the “padded leather top, the oblong shape and dimensions that make it suitable for one or more individuals to sit.” Pl.’s Opp’n at 12. Therefore, the Court finds that the record evidence does not support Commerce’s conclusion that the customer expectations is for storage over seating. Commerce’s determination must be remanded for further consideration.

C. Ultimate Use of the Product

Regarding the factor of ultimate use of the product, similar to the previous factor, Commerce again admitted that there is “no direct evidence on the record regarding how purchasers are actually using the Heritage Court Bench.” Remand Results at 10. In lieu of ultimate use, Commerce “examined the record for evidence of the use for which the product was designed.” Id. Noting that it “is tasked with determining whether the product in question is sufficiently similar to subject merchandise and thus subject to the order — not whether the product has absolutely no features in common with non-subject or excluded merchandise,” Commerce concluded that “[wjhile the Heritage Court Bench does have a padded leather lid and could be used for seating, this one ultimate use does not negate the ultimate uses of the Heritage Court Bench that are similar to those of subject chests.” Remand Results at 12,13.

As noted in the Court’s first decision, Commerce’s conclusion is based on an “impression.” Legacy I, 807 F.Supp.2d at 1359. It appears that Commerce has not fully considered the record, as instructed, but rather remains mired in its position regarding this factor. Plaintiff asserted that

Commerce once again ignores substantial record evidence that the Heritage Court Bench is designed to be used as a bench, which could be placed at the foot of the bed or elsewhere in the house. Commerce presumes that the storage capability of the Heritage Court Bench it is primary function with no record support.

Pl.’s Opp’n at 14 (emphasis in original). Commerce even admitted that there is a “lack of direct record evidence regarding the ultimate use of the product,” yet proceeded to declare that the storage function supersedes the seating function of the product in the absence of record evidence pertinent to this factor. Remand Results at 10. In the absence of direct evidence of how customers actually use this product, the only reasonable way to analyze this factor is to infer from the marketing evidence. The product is marketed as a “bench” or “seating furniture” that can be placed in the bedroom. Pl.’s Opp’n at 14. The fact that seating furniture can, and often is, located in the bedroom does not place it within the scope of the WBF Order. It is unreasonable to conclude that customers seeing a product marketed as a “bench” or “seating furniture” would primarily expect to use it as a bedroom chest. Commerce apparently made its conclusion based on conjecture and not on evidence, or even logical inference from the evidence. The Court finds that Commerce’s conclusion that the Heritage Court Bench’s primary use is as a bedroom chest is not supported by substantial evidence and must be remanded for further consideration.

D. Channels of Trade in Which the Product Is Sold

Regarding the factor of channels of trade in which the product is sold, Commerce determined that “the evidence regarding this criterion by itself is not dispositive on the issue” because record evidence demonstrates that the Heritage Court Bench and similar products “are sold through different channels of trade from those used for subject merchandise as well as through identical channels of trade as those used for subject merchandise.” Remand Results at 14-15. Plaintiff claimed that “[w]hile there may be some overlap between this channel of trade and the channel of trade for subject bedroom furniture, the record establishes that the channels are not the same” and that the Heritage Court Bench and similar products are “never identified as bedroom chests and [are], instead, always grouped with other seating furniture.” Pl.’s Opp’n at 18 (emphasis in original). The Court agrees with Plaintiff that, even if the Heritage Court Bench is sold through overlapping channels of trade for subject wooden bedroom furniture, it is still seating furniture, all of which is excluded. Therefore, the Court remands this factor of the channels of trade to Commerce to consider all of the record evidence.

E. The Manner in Which the Product Is Displayed and Advertised

Regarding the factor of the manner in which the product is displayed and advertised, Commerce also determined that the record was inconclusive and thus not a dispositive factor. Remand Results at 17. Commerce found that “the majority of features advertised about the Heritage Court Bench are the ones of a subject chest” but acknowledged that “the ability to use the chest for seating is also advertised and the product is labeled as a storage bench.” Id. at 17. Plaintiff advocated that “the Heritage Court Bench is much more prominently advertised as a bench, and not a chest,” Pl.’s Opp’n at 11, and asserted that “the record shows that storage benches are a widely recognized type of bench that must be within the unqualified exclusion for all benches and seating furniture,” Pl.’s Opp'n at 18. Further, Plaintiff declared that “Commerce attempts to minimize record evidence showing that the Heritage Court Bench is marketed and advertised as a bench.” Id. The Court agrees with Plaintiff. The subject chest was never advertised as a chest; it was advertised as seating furniture or a storage bench. Parsing the phrase “storage bench,” the Court analyzes that “storage” is merely an adjective that modifies the noun “bench,” which is the focus of the phrase. The record evidence supports Plaintiffs assertion that the Heritage Court Bench is indisputably a bench in terms of its marketing. Consequently, the Court remands this factor of the manner in which the product is displayed and advertised for Commerce to fully reconsider.

F. Remand of the (k)(2) Factors

In its Remand Results, Commerce concluded that the record is inconclusive for the two factors of (iv) channels of trade and (v) manner displayed and advertised and therefore made its redetermination upon the three factors of (i) physical characteristics, (ii) customer expectations, and (iii) ultimate use. Remand Results at 17-18. However, Commerce conceded that there was “no direct evidence on the record” for the factors of (ii) customer expectations and (iii) ultimate use. Remands Results at 8, 10. The Court finds that Commerce’s Remand Results regarding the (k)(2) factors are based on conjecture and assumption, not based on evidence in the record. Contrary to its assertion that it “provided a robust explanation concerning how it weighed the conflicting evidence in this case,” Def.’s Reply to Pl.’s Comments Concerning Remand Results (“Def.’s Reply”) at 6, the Court finds that Commerce merely regurgitated its original conclusions from the Final Scope Ruling without the requisite “reasoned analysis or explanation for [its] decision” ordered by the Court in Legacy I and required by Wheatland Tube, 161 F.3d at 1369.

Accordingly, similar to the results in Legacy I, the Court finds that the record evidence does not support Commerce’s conclusions that the factors under 19 C.F.R. § 351.225(k)(2)(i-iii) are within the scope of the order. Further, considering the (k)(2) factors — 19 C.F.R. § 351.225(k)(2)(vi-v) — that Commerce found to be inconclusive, the Court cannot find that Commerce took into account “the breadth of the record evidence” as instructed in Legacy I, 807 F.Supp.2d at 1358. Therefore, Commerce’s redetermination that the Heritage Court Bench is within the scope based on the (k)(2) factors is unsustainable and must be set aside. The case is remanded for a second time for consideration of the (k)(2) factors.

II. Reconsideration of the (k)(l) Factors

Given that the Heritage Court Bench appears to fall both in and out of the scope language, making scope determination a vexed question for Commerce, the Court l’eturns to the basics of a scope determination and reconsiders the first step, the (k)(l) factors, specifically taking another look at the scope language of the anti-dumping order. The Court’s goal is to ensure that the final determination is arrived at through thorough and proper consideration of the record, which did not happen here, by both this Court in its original decision and by Commerce in its previous determinations. The Court may reconsider its decision in an interim order “pursuant to its general authority, which is recognized by USCIT Rule 54, to reconsider a non-final order prior to entering final judgment.” Union Steel v. United States, 36 CIT -, 836 F.Supp.2d 1382, 1394 (2012); USCIT R. 54(b). Upon further consideration, particularly the way the specific exclusion interacts with the general inclusion, the Court is no longer convinced that the (k)(l) factors are non-dis-positive.

In a scope determination, the plain language of the order clarifies whether the item at issue is unambiguously included or excluded in the scope. Novosteel SA v. United States, 284 F.3d 1261, 1266 (Fed.Cir.2002). It is well-established that the cornerstone in any scope determination is the language of the order itself. Walgreen Co. of Deerfield, IL v. United States, 620 F.3d 1350, 1357 (Fed.Cir.2010). Commerce may not impermissibly expand the scope of the order. Eckstrom Indus., Inc. v. United States, 254 F.3d 1068, 1072 (Fed.Cir.2001). Issues regarding scope arise because “the descriptions of subject merchandise contained in [Commerce’s] determinations must be written in general terms.” 19 C.F.R. § 351.225(a). Accordingly, scope inclusions are written in general terms and then specific exclusions are carved out from the general terms. Some exclusions are qualified and some are not.

In Legacy I, this Court noted that the Final Scope Ruling determined that the “Heritage Court Bench had characteristics of both a chest — which would be included within the scope of the order — and also a bench — which would be excluded from the order.” Legacy I, 807 F.Supp.2d at 1356. While arguably falling under a residual definition of a chest within the general scope language, the Heritage Court Bench is unambiguously a bench or seating furniture as listed in the scope exclusions. WBF Order at 332; see also Remand Results at 3, Pl.’s Opp’n at 2. Commerce acknowledged that the WBF Order defines chests but not benches. Remand Results at 3. Analyzing the scope language, only certain specified chests are included in the scope, but all benches — in fact all seating furniture — are unequivocally excluded from the scope. WBF Order at 332.

Because the scope language of an order starts with general inclusions and then carves out specific exclusions, when a product is generally included in a residual provision but yet specifically excluded from the scope, the specific should trump the general. The purpose of the explicit exclusions is to narrow the expanse of the general scope. Unequivocal exclusions are not loopholes; they are argued for and intentionally omitted from the scope. Wheatland Tube, 161 F.3d at 1371. To “allow Commerce to assess antidumping duties on products intentionally omitted from the ITC’s injury investigation” would “frustrate the purpose of the antidumping laws.” Id. (citing 19 U.S.C. § 1673 (1994) (requiring an injury determination by the ITC before the imposition of antidumping duties)).

In the instant case, Plaintiff asserts that the product at issue is a “storage bench” while Commerce avers that it is a “bedroom chest.” The scope language includes various types of “chests.” Commerce argues the Heritage Court Bench falls under the general category of chest, which is the fifth enumerated item of subject merchandise under the scope language in the WBF Order: (5) chests-on-chests, highboys, lowboys, chests of drawers, chests, door chests, chiffoniers, hutches and armoires. WBF Order at 332 (emphasis added). Every chest listed under number five includes a footnote, which provides a narrative definition of the type of chest that is covered. Commerce determined that the Heritage Court Bench fits under the following definition:

A chest is typically a case piece taller than it is wide featuring a series of drawers and with or without one or more doors for storing clothing. The piece can either include drawers or be designed as a large box incorporating a lid.

Id. at 332, n.5. Looking at the plain language, the Court notes that the Heritage Court Bench is not “a case piece taller than it is wide featuring a series of drawers.” Commerce determined, however, that the Heritage Court Bench fits squarely in the last phrase “designed as a large box incorporating a lid.” Remand Results at 4. While the Court agrees that the shape of the Heritage Court Bench resembles a large box, Plaintiff has placed on the record that the Heritage Court Bench is designed as seating furniture in the shape of a large box. Further, the Court notes that the plain reading of footnote 5 requires that a “case piece” be taller than it is wide, which does not encompass the Heritage Court Bench, and then be designed as a large box incorporating a lid, which generally describes the Heritage Court Bench. Moreover, the Court notes that the “lid” is actually a padded leather bench designed as seating furniture.

While it ambiguously fits under the qualified definition of chest found in footnote 5, the Heritage Court Bench unambiguously fits under the unqualified term “benches.” The scope specifically excludes benches, listed as the third item under the first exclusion: “(1) Seats, chairs, benches, couches, sofas, sofa beds, stools and other seating furniture.” WBF Order at 332 (emphasis added). The third enumerated item under the first exclusion is “benches” and there is even a basket provision for all other kinds of “seating furniture” under the scope exclusions, which highlights the intention that all seating furniture is to be excluded from the scope. Id.' The exclusion of sofabeds provides insight that the key to the seating furniture exclusion is that an item — whether or not it has a typical bedroom-type function — have a seating function. Plaintiff pointed out that “the exclusion for benches (and other seating furniture) within the scope of the WBF Order is unqualified” and argued that “Commerce cannot seek now to interpret the WBF Order contrary to its plain terms.” Pl.’s Opp’n at 6. Plaintiff proffered that “all the physical features of the Heritage Court Bench are consistent with that of a bench, and that the cedar-lined storage area is merely one feature it shares in common with some storage furniture.” Pl.’s Opp’n at 5. The Court agrees.

Commerce stated that it “has determined in the past that additional features that do not change the primary nature of an ‘in-scope’ product do not serve to move that product outside of the scope of the order.” Remand Results at 5 (quotations omitted) (citing Color Television Receivers from Taiwan: Notice of Final Scope Ruling Couch Master International Corporation, 63 Fed. Reg. 805, 806 (Jan. 7, 1998) (“Color TVs”)). However, Color TVs involved a product that was “neither specifically included ... nor excluded” while the product in the instant case is specifically excluded from the scope. 63 Fed. Reg. at 806. Therefore, Color TVs does not support Commerce’s position. When a product is “specifically excluded from the anti-dumping duty order, that order could not be interpreted to cover it.” Nippon Steel Corp. v. United States, 219 F.3d 1348 (Fed.Cir.2000) (explaining the holding of Wheatland Tube).

While this Court originally sustained Commerce’s determination that the (k)(l) factors are not dispositive in Legacy I, upon review of the Remand Results and upon further consideration, this Court remands this case for Commerce to reconsider the application of both the (k)(l) and (k)(2) factors because Commerce’s Remand Results that the Heritage Court Bench falls within the scope are not supported by evidence on the record. The Court instructs Commerce to fully and objectively reconsider the record, make re-determinations based on the evidence in the record, and consistent with this opinion, and not merely repeat the original conclusions from the Final Scope Ruling.
