Shopping tips

Veneer

It is more difficult to distinguish whether the panel furniture uses paper veneer or wood veneer. The easiest way is to observe the pattern, the wood veneer has natural knots, color difference and texture changes. The veneer is divided into melamine veneer, solid wood leather veneer, cat's eye paper veneer, fireproof board veneer and so on. Among them, the melamine veneer has strong scratch resistance, high temperature resistance, and water immersion resistance, and it has strong practicability, and its texture styles are diverse and three-dimensional. There are various styles of solid wood leather finishes, imitating solid wood furniture as a whole to appear high-end. Cat's eye paper veneer and fire board veneer are relatively low-end finishes. Cat's eye paper veneer is cheap but has poor practicability; fire board veneer is less environmentally friendly due to construction reasons.

 

Edge banding

Pay attention to the advantages and disadvantages of the edge banding materials, and pay attention to whether the edge banding is uneven or warped. It is recommended to pay special attention to whether it is sealed on all six sides. Although a formaldehyde-free adhesive is used, the wood-based panel has more or less volatile gas during the production process, and the sealing is tight. Of course it is good for the environmental protection of the room.

 

firmness

The first is the gap between the door and drawer of the furniture. If the gap is large, it means that the workmanship is rough and it will deform after a long time.

The best way is to carefully observe the hinge grooves and perforations, and where the internal structure is exposed, you can see whether particleboard or particleboard is used. Medium density board.

 

Hardware
