Is online shopping for large pieces of furniture reliable? Do online buyers have any tips?

First, the quality problem.

Online shopping is synonymous with cost performance, but it is by no means synonymous with inferior quality! There must be good goods online. The key is whether you can find them or not. So, so is furniture. If you find a reliable store, make your requirements clear before placing an order and let the seller know your requirements, then the furniture you get will be satisfied. Therefore, there is nothing wrong with choosing a reliable store to place an order. Shuaimeng Pig recommended some reliable furniture stores in his blog before. If necessary, please search the log yourself.

Second, the advantage analysis

Compared with the traditional physical furniture city, the advantages of online shopping furniture are strongly manifested in the following two points: First, the price is affordable. After all, the cost of online shopping is not as big as that of physical furniture city. Let's go to the furniture city near your home. Without thousands of square meters of space, I'm afraid I can't open a physical store, and the cost can be imagined. In the end, of course, it will be borne by the buyer; Second, rich styles. Take the furniture store on Taobao as an example. Rich styles, only money you can't think of, no money you can't find. More often, I am guilty of difficult choice syndrome.

Third, how to determine the size and volume?

This is a problem that many friends will face before placing an order. In fact, it is enough for everyone to keep a heart. Pay attention to the space and planning of their home first, then pay attention to the furniture parameters, and the general stores will clearly mark them. Here, Zhu Meng shared a trick-actually simulating the size of furniture. The method I use is stupid, but intuitive, that is, to find out the size of a piece of furniture given by the store, and then use some physical objects such as cartons, green plants and wooden frames. Prepare the placement position to simulate the size of furniture, so that you can feel the overall space size. The TV cabinet I bought at the beginning must have been decided like this. The wall of my house is 450cm, and I took a fancy to a TV cabinet and a wardrobe. I found a few cartons at random and put them out. I felt that the overall horizontal and vertical directions and heights were very harmonious, and then I placed an order. This can completely avoid the difference between the furniture size and the actual look and feel, and also avoid the problem that the release is different from the original expected look and feel.

Four. Matters needing attention in purchasing customized furniture

Generally, online brand design furniture stores rarely provide customized services, so most of the furniture that other manufacturers cooperate or sell directly can be customized. If you like a piece of furniture, but the size is not suitable for your home space, but you really want it, then remember to communicate with the store to ask if it can be customized. In practice, you can use the following three techniques:

When you are not sure about the color, you can contact the store to send samples first, such as the plate samples of TV cabinets and the fabric samples of sofas. Furniture between different shops can also be combined and customized. My suggestion is that you can buy one first and then customize one according to the actual size after installation. Pay attention to the accuracy and precision of the size when customizing, and don't ignore factors such as corner lines and ceilings. It is best if the store can draw the design drawing and indicate the size.

Five, logistics fees, installation fees should be clear in advance.

This must be made clear before placing an order. Most of Tmall's furniture comes with handling fees, and most of them can be installed at will. Some stores directly include freight and installation fees in the product price. Pay attention to the actual description. In addition, we must pay attention to the difference in physical charges in the same area. Some shops have different floors and elevators. Please read the baby description or communicate directly with the store customer service.
