I like working from home because I don't have to pretend I'm working all day. Like most of my work is thinking I can do that anywhere so working from home means I can have a little walk, sit on the balcony and not have anal retentive managers looking over my shoulder demanding I look busy. Likewise when I'm waiting for work/someone to decide I can turn on Netflix and relax, most of my work I can do in 2 or 3 hours a day, its seldom I have enough to be fully engaged for a day. Work from home is attractive because the alternative is so awful, I watch old movies from the 50's and everyone had an office sat back with their feet on the desk while thinking, also long commutes weren't a huge thing - everyone caught the bus, long lunches were a thing, granted hours were long then but things haven't improved. The modern workplace is a toxic environment, working from home is a little better but really its pretty awful to - no socialising, no energy etc.
