Buying furniture on line has a set of pluses and minuses. Sure, no one can argue – on line shopping is a great experience that allows you to get high quality affordable items without leaving your home – well, in the ideal world at the very least. However, the process is associated with a couple of hidden dangers, and ordering a lower quality furniture piece is just one of them. Below, you will see a list of major pluses and minuses associated with ordering furniture on line, as well as a couple of tips that would help you to avoid potential pitfalls.
Pluses
Quick
No doubt, ordering furniture on line is much quicker than going from store to store and checking out hundreds of different collections. Sure, it does not imply that you will find the kind of living room collection you need (as for instance) in the first store, but you will still save plenty of time while looking for suitable items.
Convenient
Buying furniture on line is not only quicker – it is also way more convenient. First of all, you can look for appropriate models 24/7, and you do not have to worry about opening hours. And, of course, it is way easier to make a quick price range on similar models in the other stores.
Minuses
Difficult to assess the quality
The most important drawback of getting furniture on line is that it is almost impossible to objectively evaluate the quality of the item you are about to buy. Posting a beautiful picture is not at all difficult, but there is no warranty that the piece you like will look so attractive in the real life mode. Plus, apart from the style, you should also pay your attention to the build quality, and pictures are hardly enough for that.
A nice solution to this problem would be to look for stores that have a website and a showroom. This way, you can find several furniture models you like on line and then check out them physically.
Delivery times are long
A furniture selling site can be located anywhere, which means that the shipment will require some time. To avoid long delivery times, you should better stick to local stores – or at least stores that have warehouses somewhere in your vicinity.
Yet, you should note that there are a few stores that can offer you a couple of exceptions to the rule. In the UK, Furniture in Fashion is one of the obvious examples. Even though the platform offers you a chance to buy furniture on line, it also offers you an opportunity to visit their showroom in Farnworth to personally examine any items you find interesting. Another important perk of the platform (for UK residents) is that all orders are being processed and delivered quickly. Quick delivery is achieved with the help of a separate customer support division that immediately processes all of the new orders and a set of internal couriers, responsible for the urgent delivery of newly purchased items.
