Choosing furniture is also a test for friends who are about to renovate or have completed the renovation, testing our aesthetic, observation, and measurement abilities. Many friends don't know how to choose furniture, why it looks good in the showroom but doesn't feel the same when they go home, or why some friends find it unsuitable after buying it. Today we will talk about how to choose furniture.

1. List

First, make a careful list of the furniture needed according to the room's function. From sofas and beds to crevices for storage, make a list. Next is size measurement, including the size of the living room and the appropriate size for the sofa. The bed should not only consider the size of the bed body, but also the size of the headboard. A friend told me before that I bought a bed, but forgot to measure the head of the bed. As a result, when I installed the bed, the bedroom door couldn't be opened. The size measurement is completed, and then the material, color, style, environmental protection, after-sales, and small notebook are recorded. When you see the salesperson, you can ask questions according to the notebook.

2. Practicality and comfort

Whether it's decorating or buying furniture, practicality and comfort should always be prioritized over aesthetics. If beauty and practical comfort can be achieved at the same time, that would be the best. But sometimes we see furniture that is full of creativity and looks good, but lacks practicality. There are also some designs that are very different from our family's living habits and lack comfort. If we cut our feet to fit our shoes in life, it would be too painful, so we need to make decisive choices at this time.

3. Small details

How about the quality of the hardware on the cabinet, whether the drawers are easy to pull, whether the color is uniform, whether there are burrs, whether the corners are round enough, whether they will hurt people, and a series of small details. Although success or failure is not determined by details, having too many flawed details can lower the overall level.

4. Environmental Protection

Environmental protection is a major concern for us, and the health of our families cannot be ignored. When choosing furniture, we can check the environmental certification mark, look at the board, look at the finish, and sometimes simply smell the smell to distinguish those inferior materials. For example, some friends' eyes are very sensitive to formaldehyde, and when the formaldehyde content is high, they cannot open their eyes. They fully stimulate our senses and first screen out some unqualified products.

Anything related to our lives is not a small matter, and furniture selection is no exception. It's not just about looking good, but also about being healthy and easy to use.
