How to choose furniture without stepping on thunder

by:Y&r Furniture     2023-06-02

I don’t know if you will have such distress. There are too many furniture styles, functions and brands, which makes people dazzled. I don’t know how to choose, or it is not suitable after buying it, and it is troublesome to come and go. The furniture is small We have compiled 8 articles about the establishment of furniture selection, hoping to be helpful to everyone.

1. Is the furniture structure firm?

When selecting small pieces of furniture, such as chairs, stools, hangers, etc., you can drag them on the concrete floor and drop them lightly. The sound is clear and crisp, indicating that the quality is good; Not tight, the structure is not strong.

There should be 4 triangular clips on the legs of square tables, strip tables, and chairs to fix them. When choosing, you can turn the tables and chairs upside down to have a look, and you can touch the cloth chairs with your hands.

2. Is the edge of the furniture flat?

If the edge is uneven, it means that the inner material is wet, and the edge will fall off in a few days. The edge banding should also have rounded corners, not straight edges and right angles. The edges sealed with wooden strips are prone to moisture or cracking. For furniture inlaid with plywood, nails are used to nail the strips. Pay attention to whether the nail holes are flat and whether the color of the nail holes is consistent with other places.

Usually the nail hole is sealed with putty. Pay attention to whether the putty bulges.

3. Take a picture of the mirror furniture

Choose furniture with mirrors, such as dressing tables, dressing mirrors, and full-length mirrors. Pay attention to taking a photo to see if the mirror is deformed and discolored. Check whether there is lining paper and backboard at the mercury at the back of the mirror. Qualified, no paper, otherwise the mercury will be worn away.

4. The joints of veneer furniture are not strict

Whether it is pasting wood veneer, PVC or pasting pre-painted paper, it is necessary to pay attention to whether the leather is pasted smoothly, whether there are bulges, blisters, and lax seams.

For furniture veneered with particleboard, the ground part must be edge-sealed. If the edge is not edge-sealed, the board will be damaged due to moisture absorption and swelling. Generally, the corners of veneer furniture are easy to warp, you can dig the corners with your hands when selecting, if it rises once you pick it, it means that there is something wrong with the glue.

5. Is the furniture material reasonable?

Different furniture has different surface materials. For example, the legs of tables and chairs are required to use solid wood, which is relatively strong and can bear weight, while other materials can be used for internal materials; cabinets in kitchens and bathrooms cannot be made of fiberboard, but plywood should be used, because fiberboard will expand and damage when exposed to water; The dining table should be washable.

6. Whether the four legs of the furniture are flat

Put the furniture on the ground and shake it to know, some furniture only has 3 legs to the ground. Take a look to see if the tabletop is straight, not arched or slumped. If the desktop is raised, the glass plate will spin when placed on it; if the desktop is recessed, the glass plate will shatter when placed on it. Pay attention to check the cabinet door, the seam of the drawer should not be too large, pay attention to horizontal and vertical, and the door should not sag.

7. Is the installation of accessories reasonable?

Check whether the door lock switch is working; the large cabinet should be equipped with 3 hidden hinges, and some can only be equipped with 2; 3 screws should be installed, and some cut corners and only install one screw, which will fall off after use.

8. Brand selection is very important

When buying furniture, you must choose a brand, product materials, product design and craftsmanship are all guaranteed. The dealer channels of big brands are very complete, and problems can be solved quickly, which is reassuring.
