With the development and maturity of e-commerce, unconsciously buying furniture online has become the first choice for many friends. Undeniably, compared with the traditional shopping in the physical furniture city, buying furniture online has at least the following two advantages:

First, there are more styles to choose from, which can match your home decoration style and personal preference;

secondly, the price is more affordable, which can be at least 3% cheaper than the same furniture purchased online in a physical store.

However, online shopping furniture also has many disadvantages, and there are also many problems in actual selection! Today, I'm going to sum up my experience and lessons in online furniture shopping, and sort out five lies that merchants are most likely to encounter when buying furniture online. If you happen to be preparing to buy furniture online, you might as well take some time to read it carefully, which will help you avoid the pit: Lie 1: The higher the parameters, the better the quality

Everyone will think that the higher the parameters and standards, the better the quality. But this is not the case. Take the sofa as an example. I believe most friends will believe this view-"The higher the density of sponge, the better the quality". Is this really the case? No!

The quality of sponge is judged not only by density, but also by resilience, tensile strength and hardness. If a sponge only has high density, but resilience, tensile strength and hardness are not up to standard, it will be in vain. Suggestions for avoiding pits:

1. When shopping for furniture online, we should not simply look at the parameters, but judge it comprehensively. For example, when choosing a sofa, when looking at the density of sponge, we should also pay attention to its resilience, tension and hardness and other indicators.

2. Some unscrupulous merchants will falsely mark parameters, such as marking a sponge with a density of 3 as 45, so pay attention to discrimination.

3. Some unscrupulous merchants will use inferior sponge with talcum powder. The sofa made of this sponge feels good resilience at the initial stage, but it will be used for a short time, and there will be problems such as slag dropping and weathering in the later stage, and it is extremely environmentally unfriendly. Lie 2: various high-tech gimmicks

It is undeniable that sofas on various e-commerce platforms are relatively "rolled" at present, and some merchants do not work hard on design and quality, but play tricks on names, add various names to ordinary sofas, create a high-tech feeling, and then buy high prices. Suggestions for avoiding the pit:

1. Pay attention to the names, such as adding names such as "scientific nano", "new type", "high-tech" and "aerospace technology", and it is best to avoid them;

2. Look at the price. When a technology is really leading and rare, its value must be not low. If the sofa of a merchant has a string of technical terms that people have never heard of and feel very scientific, and the price is very low, if you buy it, you will probably pay IQ tax. Lie 3: all kinds of retouching

It is impossible to buy furniture online without looking at pictures, which is also the main way for most buyers to judge goods. In order to make the original general style of their home look good, merchants began to fiddle with it, adding environment, lighting and later retouching when taking pictures, and finally made the ordinary model full of atmosphere and advanced style. Suggestions for avoiding the pit:

1. Look at the buyer's show and return to the picture. This is the most valuable reference. The pictures of the buyer's show are all in the actual environment, which is basically the effect of your home.

2. Watching videos is more informative. Many shops actually have video selection services. If a seller doesn't even have the real thing, its credibility will not be too high. Lie 4: fast delivery

According to my experience, taking a certain treasure as an example, most brand furniture or original designer brand furniture is in the pre-sale mode, and the pre-sale period is often not short, and it is possible for several months. However, in order to cater to the psychology of some buyers who are in urgent need of furniture, some merchants have played a routine in the delivery period and marked short-term delivery. However, after the actual filming, there will be various reasons to delay delivery or directly deliver false goods. Suggestions for avoiding pits:

1. Arrange the time reasonably. Online shopping furniture should reserve enough time to wait for the production and transportation of merchants. Basically, when the decoration is half finished, you can start selecting and booking furniture.

2. communicate with the merchants before placing an order, ask about the ready delivery time, and place an order if you can accept it. Lie 5: No reason to return goods

Most merchants will give a promise such as "7-day no reason to return goods", but in fact it is very difficult, especially for customized furniture. 7-day no reason to return goods is almost useless, styles, colors and sizes are all customized, and there are basically no conditions for secondary sales. Merchants will definitely have countless reasons to refuse to return goods.

even if you agree to return it, can you send it back as it is? Do you have the time and energy? Therefore, in fact, after most people buy dissatisfied furniture online, as long as it is not particularly rubbish, they will bear it and use it. Pit avoidance suggestions:

1. Spend more time and energy before placing an order. In particular, custom-made furniture should be fully understood in terms of size, style, color and materials, and it is really what you need before placing an order.

2. Pay more attention to the reputation of brands and stores. Try to choose a merchant with good reputation to buy, and don't be too demanding for parity. A good merchant can greatly reduce the chance of returning goods.

well, let's share the above five tips about the strategy of online shopping furniture to see through the lies of merchants.
