How to distinguish solid wood furniture

Solid wood furniture refers to furniture with solid wood as the main material, and if you want to buy pure solid wood furniture, you should be careful. All solid wood furniture means that all the materials used in the furniture are solid wood, including the tabletop, cabinet door panels, side panels, etc., are made of pure solid wood, and do not use any other form of wood-based panels, so the price is relatively high. The words of discernment can be divided from four aspects:

One smell: pure wood has its own special taste, even after long-term storage or decoration, it still retains the smell, and there are many woods that will retain a faint taste, such as pine wood has the smell of pine resin, camphor wood will have an obvious camphor smell, walnut will slightly choke ......Wood-based panels will have a strong smell of chemical materials when smelled carefully, which is easy to identify.

Second look: to see whether the solid wood furniture is made of solid wood, the first thing to look at is the wood grain and scars. For example, a wardrobe door, the appearance looks like a pattern, then in the corresponding position on the back of the door, look at the position of the pattern change, if the correspondence is good, it is a pure solid wood cabinet door.

In addition, looking at the scar knot is also a good way to identify pure wood: look at the location of the side with the scar, and then look for the corresponding pattern on the other side.

Three knocks: Solid wood parts will make a crisper sound when tapped by hand, while wood-based panels will have a low sound, and the wooden parts of the box will make a drumming sound.

Four pounds: according to the weight of the wood, it is divided into three grades: lightweight paulownia wood, heavyweight pine, basswood, autumn wood, etc.

In the north of our country, the medium-density wood is called soft wood (except pine), and the heavyweight in addition to the hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, rosewood, rosewood, oak, ash and birch and imported willow eucalyptus are called hard wood, and the wood furniture mentioned above is lighter than the furniture of particleboard and medium-density fiberboard.

In addition to mastering some ways to identify solid wood furniture, it is best to go to the Louvre and other formal furniture stores to buy, settled in are big brands, and there is also a guarantee after sale, don't believe in the "ghosts" of soliciting.
