First of all, choose wood

To determine whether the furniture is really made of solid wood, the main thing to look at is the door panel and side panels. Tips: Scarring, wood grain, and sections.

Scarring: Look at the location of the scarred side, and then look for the corresponding pattern on the other side. Wood grain:

The appearance seems to be a pattern, so according to the position of this pattern change, look at the corresponding pattern on the back of the cabinet door, if it corresponds well, it is a solid wood section: the color of the section is darker than the panel, and it can be seen that it is made of a whole piece of wood. Look at the tree species.

What kind of tree is solid wood made of, which directly affects the price and quality. From the cheapest pine, oak, to expensive mahogany, the price difference is dozens of times. Therefore, don't ignore the tree species because it is solid wood, after all, solid wood such as pine, in addition to environmental protection, has much worse performance than wood-based panels.

Determine the origin of the solid wood manufacturer. Special attention should be paid to the origin of solid wood furniture and wood manufacturers. There is an old saying that "solid wood is not the Yangtze River", that is, after the solid wood furniture produced in the south is transferred to the north, it will be prone to cracking and deformation due to the influence of the climate on the moisture content.

Therefore, when purchasing, you should see the origin. <>

Pay attention to the moisture content of the wood. The moisture content is high, and the wood is easy to warp and deform. The moisture content of furniture shall not exceed 12%, when the general consumer buys, there is no testing instrument, you can take the method of hand touching, touch the bottom or inside of the furniture with your hand without lacquering place, if you feel damp, then the moisture content is at least more than 50%, can not be used at all.

Another way is to sprinkle a little water on the unpainted part of the wood, if it is slow or not wet, it means that the moisture content is high. The selection of wood-based panels has deformation, side expansion, and concave and convex phenomena in the middle, indicating that the water absorption rate of the board is too high. 2 Pay attention to the materials used in the furniture.

The surface materials of furniture, such as the legs of tables, chairs and cabinets, require hard wood, such as ash, oak, etc., which are relatively strong and can bear weight, while other materials can be used for internal materials. The thickness of the large wardrobe legs is required to be reached, and if it is too thick, it will look clumsy, and it is easy to bend and deform if it is thin. Cabinets in the kitchen and bathroom should not be made of fiberboard, but should be made of plywood.

Because fiberboard has strong water absorption, it will swell and be damaged when exposed to water. Dining room tables should be washable. It is found that the wood has insect eyes and foam, which means that the drying is thorough, and such furniture cannot be bought, because the insect eyes will bite bigger and bigger.

After checking the surface, you should also open the cabinet door and drawer door to see if the inner material is rotten, you can pinch it with your fingernails, and if you pinch it in, it means that the inner material is rotten. After opening the cabinet door, smell it with your nose, if the nose is flushed, dazzling, and tearful, it means that the formaldehyde content in the adhesive is too high, which will be harmful to the human body. 3. Pay attention to whether the structure of the furniture is firm and whether the joints of the mortise and tenon are tight.

When inspecting, you should look at the light, and you can't see it without the light. Ash veneer furniture is relatively damaged and can generally only be used for two years. As far as wood veneer is concerned, planed veneer is better than rotary cutting.

The way to identify the two is to look at the pattern of the wood, the grain of the planed veneer is straight and dense, and the pattern of the rotary cut veneer is curved and sparse. For particleboard veneer furniture, the landing part must be edge-sealed, and the non-edged board will absorb moisture, swell and be damaged. Generally, the corners of veneer furniture are easy to warp, and you can use your hand to buckle the corners when selecting.

Nowadays, most people prefer solid wood furniture, which not only has a long service life, but also is more environmentally friendly.

1. When choosing solid wood furniture, first look at the wood grain and scar knots to verify whether it is solid wood.

2. Look at the material, that is, look at the tree species. Generally good solid wood furniture, after opening the cabinet doors and drawers, its wood is dry and white, with clear texture, tight texture and delicate texture.

3. Feel whether the surface is smooth, and the surface of good solid wood furniture will be smooth and there will be no protrusions.

4. It is to check the pressure, and when selecting solid wood furniture, it is necessary to lightly press the various stress points of the furniture. ‍‍
