As prices continue to climb in the real estate market, many people tend to feel a lot of financial stress after buying a home because most of their savings are invested in the property.
However, buying a home is only the beginning, and the rest of the renovation process is like a bottomless pit, no matter how experienced you are, you may encounter the pitfalls of renovation workers.
Taking furniture shopping as an example, many people are often confused when facing the decoration of their house for the first time.
They are often attracted by the exquisite furniture in other people's homes, and think that following the trend of buying can avoid pitfalls, so as to ensure the practicality of the furniture.
However, it is important to recognize that furniture that suits others may not be suitable for you, and that rushing to buy without adequate research can result in unnecessary waste.
After two renovation experiences, I deeply realized that there are four types of "furniture" that do not need to be purchased, which is not only a waste of money but also low in practicality, and I hope my experience can provide a reference for everyone.
When choosing a coffee table, many people prefer to choose glass because they are not familiar with it, believing that it can enhance the aesthetics of the interior.
But after actually using it, you will find that it has many disadvantages and increases the amount of housework. I used it once and regretted it!
Due to the material, the surface of the glass coffee table is easy to be stained with dirt.
Sometimes fingerprints can be left on just a light touch, and it is difficult to clean them thoroughly with frequent wiping.
What's more, glass coffee tables are fragile and easy to break when placed with heavy or hot objects.
In addition, the sharp corners of a square coffee table can pose a threat to child safety. Therefore, it is recommended that you can choose a small side table instead of a traditional coffee table, which can not only save space but also solve the storage needs.
In recent years, the material of rock slabs has become popular because of its high appearance, and many people do not hesitate to buy it at a high price.
However, I think the actual performance of the slate material is overstated, taking the slate dining table as an example.
Although it has a good appearance and a good sense of use, its fragile texture cannot be ignored, and it may cause the desktop to crack if it is not maintained carelessly.
Buying slate tables online is even more risky, and many consumers report that the goods have been damaged when they arrive, and it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to return and exchange goods and contact after-sales service.
In view of the high price of slate material,
It is recommended that you do not blindly follow the trend to buy a rock slab dining table, and the solid wood dining table is more advantageous in terms of cost performance and practicality.
With the rise of online decoration style, more and more families choose to install transparent glass wardrobe doors in the bedroom.
While the appearance is sleek and properly furnished can make the home feel like an influencer, the ideal and reality are often far from the reality.
Glass wardrobe doors are highly susceptible to stains and can leave marks if left uncleaned for a day.
Long-term use may also cause glass to shatter, which can seriously affect the user experience.
After using it, it was found that no matter how neatly organized the interior was, it still looked disorganized from the outside, making people wonder if the beautiful pictures on the Internet had been over-beautified.
Therefore, it is recommended that you choose traditional wooden cabinet doors to better hide the internal storage.
When shopping for a sofa, many people are attracted to the style with a chaise longue and think that its design is thoughtful.
This type of sofa has a fashionable style and was once popular.
However, when choosing a sofa, you can't just look at the appearance,
The chaise longue sofa is bulky, which will take up too much space for a small apartment, making the living room seem crowded.
If there are children at home, the large sofa will further limit the activity space, and the chaise longue is not used frequently, so it is mainly used for sitting every day.
Therefore, it is advisable to consider in-line styles when choosing sofas, which are cost-effective, comfortable to sit and more efficient use of space in the home.
Write at the end:
The furniture mentioned above seems to be practical, but in fact it has its own drawbacks, I hope you will consider carefully when buying and avoid blindly following the trend.
