Wood furniture, comprehensive wood furniture, and all-solid-wood furniture are collectively known as solid wood furniture. Understanding the differences between these types can help consumers make informed decisions when purchasing.
**1. Wood Furniture:** This refers to furniture where most of the components are made from wood materials such as solid wood or wood-based panels, except for decorative elements and accessories. It may include some non-wood parts but is primarily constructed from wood.
**2. Solid Wood Furniture:** This type of furniture is made entirely from solid wood boards, either sawn timber or solid wood panels, and finished with a smooth surface. Alternatively, it may be constructed using substrates made of solid wood and then covered with solid wood veneer or wood-based veneer. A solid wood board is created through secondary processing of wood, such as joining or laminating.
**3. Multi-Material Wood Furniture:** This category includes furniture that combines solid wood with other materials like wood-based panels. The mix of materials may affect the overall durability and appearance of the product.

So, what are the potential risks of buying low-quality wooden furniture? Let’s take a closer look at the common issues:
**Hidden Danger 1: Poorly Dried Wood**
If the wood used hasn't been properly dried, it may have a high moisture content. This can lead to warping, cracking, or other structural problems over time.
**Hidden Danger 2: Use of Rotten or Insect-Damaged Wood**
Some manufacturers may use wood that has already started to rot or has been damaged by insects. If you press on the surface and pieces fall off, it's a clear sign of poor quality.
**Hidden Danger 3: Loose Frame Construction**
A weak or improperly assembled frame can cause the furniture to feel unstable. Some furniture uses only nails instead of proper joints, which can compromise both aesthetics and safety. To test, gently shake the joints, especially the legs of tables or chairs.
**Hidden Danger 4: Poor Mirror Cabinet Construction**
Some wardrobes lack a back panel or pressure strips, relying only on nails to hold the mirror in place. This can lead to broken mirrors, creating a serious safety hazard.
**Hidden Danger 5: Uneven or Flaking Finish**
Low-quality furniture often has an uneven or easily peeling finish. High-quality products should have a smooth, consistent surface with no signs of peeling, whitening, or brush marks. The texture should feel even to the touch.
**Hidden Danger 6: Incorrect Functional Dimensions**
If the measurements of the furniture don’t match the standard size, it can affect how well the piece functions in your space.
**Hidden Danger 7: Unhealthy Formaldehyde Levels**
Many consumers overlook the environmental safety of the materials. Some furniture emits strong odors due to excessive formaldehyde, which can be harmful to health if inhaled over time. Always ensure the materials used are safe and meet environmental standards.
By being aware of these hidden dangers, you can make smarter choices when selecting wooden furniture and avoid potential health and safety risks.
