Choosing furniture involves a lot of knowledge. Summarized four tips for choosing furniture, hoping to help newcomers choose suitable and discounted furniture. Tip 1: Different furniture has vastly different surface materials. For the legs of tables, chairs, and cabinets, this also requires the use of hard miscellaneous wood, which is relatively sturdy and can bear weight, while other materials can be used for internal materials; The thickness of the legs of the coat cabinet is required to reach 2.5 centimeters. If it is too thick, it will appear clumsy, and if it is too thin, it will easily bend and deform; The cabinets in the kitchen and bathroom cannot be made of fiberboard, but should be made of plywood, as fiberboard will expand and damage when exposed to water; The dining table can withstand washing with water. The discovery of insect holes and debris in the wood indicates that drying is also very difficult. After inspecting the surface, it is necessary to open the cabinet and drawer doors to check if the interior has decayed. If you can pinch it with your fingernails, it indicates that the interior has decayed. After opening the cabinet door, smell it with your nose. If you have a sharp nose or tears, it indicates that the formaldehyde content in the adhesive is too high, which will be harmful to the human body. Special reminder: Currently, common furniture in the market can be mainly divided into solid wood furniture and panel furniture. Pure solid wood furniture is not considered mainstream due to its low price. 1. Solid wood veneer furniture: The main components of furniture are solid wood (tables, chair legs), and the substrate for the large part is also artificial board. Only a layer of 1mm thick wood veneer is applied to the surface of the artificial board, and then paint is applied. The visual and tactile effects will be very similar to solid wood, and ordinary consumers will also be difficult to recognize. Nowadays, most furniture that looks like solid wood furniture adopts this method, so everyone needs to pay attention to distinguishing. 2. Panel furniture: This type of furniture is currently the mainstream in the market, with simple processing, low material and manufacturing costs, good environmental friendliness, and relatively cheap prices. The so-called board refers to man-made board, and there are many kinds of man-made board. particle board, fiberboard and plywood are mainly used on furniture. Applying melamine paper to the surface of artificial boards becomes "melamine board"; Sticking phenolic impregnated paper becomes a well-known "fireproof board"... It should be noted that this type of medium density board is not suitable for use as a cabinet body. Tip 2: Is the four legs of the furniture flat? If the four legs of the furniture are flat, shake it on the flat ground to know. Some furniture only has three legs on the ground, and its stability performance is not very good. Also, it is important to check if the tabletop is straight and not bent or collapsed. If the tabletop is raised, the glass panel will rotate when placed on it; If the desktop is recessed, the glass panel will shatter when pressed on. In addition, it is important to check the cabinet door and ensure that the gaps in the drawers are not too large. It is also important to ensure that the doors are flat and straight, and that the doors are not sagging. Tip 3: Is the furniture structure a sturdy small piece of furniture. When selecting chairs, stools, and hangers, they can be dragged on the cement floor, gently thrown, and the sound is clear and crisp, indicating excellent quality; If the voice is hoarse and there is a cracking noise, it indicates that the tenon joint is not very tight and the structure is not very firm. |
