"Drunken" furniture prevails consumers are difficult to distinguish between good and bad

Most people choose to look good when they buy things, but with the popularity of "retro style", "old" furniture is getting more and more popular, and many consumers love "old" furniture.

Dining table, solid wood sofa, solid wood bed, chair, coffee table... Recently, the author saw several home furnishing stores such as Hongxing Meikailong and East Asia Home in Beiyuan Road, and the furniture products that were deliberately “old” increased day by day. Since last year, old-style furniture has been selling better and better.” A salesperson at Jinan East Asia Furniture City told the author. Dilapidated furniture is synonymous with traditional Chinese furniture, but in the past two years, the furniture of the British and American style has become the new main force of “old” furniture.

The author learned that the “old” furniture has become more expensive because of the old process. In the furniture market, the author sees that under the same style and the same material, “old” furniture is 40% more expensive than ordinary new furniture. "Don't underestimate these outdated products, its price can be much more expensive than some glamorous products." A brand home business pointed to a solid wood sofa, the price of this kind of wood three-piece sofa, its price The highest is about 5,000 yuan, and once it is "old", its price will immediately rise to more than 10,000 yuan. The author sees that a four-door wardrobe with a combination of wood and wood is priced at nearly 10,000 yuan, and the price is almost the same as that of a solid wood four-door wardrobe.

The author found that compared with traditional furniture, the price of "old furniture" is much higher, but there is no shortage of pursuers. "There is a lot of workmanship in furniture, and there are many processes, such as chiseling, burning, and insects. Complex processes such as holes, wear and etch, each process has extremely strict requirements, and the ultimate goal is to highlight the heavy feeling of furniture.” The person in charge of a furniture company in Jinan told the author. After some comparison, Mr. Zhao bought a set of antique dining tables: “At home, distressed products look more tasteful.”

Although the market is blowing "retro style", not all "old homes" are suitable for people's new homes. Some home industry insiders remind the public that once the furniture appearance is worn out, it will increase the difficulty for consumers to judge the quality of the products. At the same time, the materials of old furniture are mostly made of wood-wood composite materials, which are far less inferior to solid wood furniture in durability. In the production process, glues are needed to bond the plates, so the combination of wood and wood will stay for a long time. There is an odor that has an impact on the health of the human body. If you are purely practical, it is best not to choose old furniture because of its low durability and safety.
