Special furniture is mostly "foreign solid wood"
Ms. Ge has been buying solid wood furniture in a number of large home stores in the past few days, but she feels that “prices are becoming more and more difficult to understandâ€. For example, a set of 14 pieces of gold silk walnut furniture was originally sold at a price of 130,000 yuan, and even after the discount, it sold for more than 50,000 yuan. The merchant also claimed to be based on imported high-grade wood from Southeast Asia, and the price dropped to the end. But Ms. Ge suspects that this imported wood furniture is cheaper than domestic wood furniture.
The reporter visited the home store in the city and found that some sales personnel used imported wood as a sales gimmick, supplemented by a sharp price cut relative to the “original priceâ€, so that consumers felt that buying such furniture was worthwhile. But are these furniture really worthwhile, why can they sell so cheaply?
"Foreign wood" is not full-grade
According to furniture industry insiders, many special furniture currently use imported wood, but the value of these imported wood is not high. In sales, salespeople often “advertise the potential†of imported timber, giving people the impression that imported timber is more expensive than domestic timber. In fact, the quality of gold walnut in Southeast Asia as a raw material is not high. The Brazilian rubber wood used in the domestic furniture market is similar in quality and price to domestic rubber wood.
In addition, mahogany furniture has a wide gap in price due to the different origin of wood. A special rosewood cabinet that Mr. Liu is looking at is priced at half the price of other rosewood furniture on the market. After consulting professionals, he learned that this wood is commonly known as African rosewood. The scientific name is Hedgehog rosewood. Although it is a "national standard redwood", it is not expensive. Some manufacturers have mixed fish, use low-cost mahogany as high-grade mahogany, and then mark special prices to mislead consumers.
Pay attention to the use of contract rights
The reporter learned from the City Household Chamber of Commerce that many furniture disputes are mostly misdirected by raw materials and production areas. Professionals suggest that you should not be superstitious about the quality of “imported wood†and “imported furnitureâ€. The new version of the "Tianjin Furniture Sales Contract" promoted by the city this year stipulates that sales personnel should be truthfully regulated in the material column. For solid wood furniture, merchants should not only fill in solid wood in general, they must fill in the real properties of the material, such as eucalyptus, rubber wood and so on. Merchants can not exaggerate the propaganda of furniture origin, as long as imported wood is introduced into China to make furniture, the finished products are domestic furniture. Every piece of furniture sold by a merchant must be accompanied by a "Desktop Instruction Manual" to protect consumers' right to know. When purchasing high-grade mahogany furniture, consumers can ask for the origin of the wood in the merchant contract as evidence of rights protection.
