Solid wood furniture has always been loved by consumers, but the "import" high-end solid wood furniture adulteration incident in the city not long ago has aroused great concern. The outside is covered with a layer of solid wood board, and the inside is all particle board. This adulteration method makes consumers angry. Consumers spent a lot of money, but did not buy real solid wood furniture——
Solid wood furniture keen on "overseas gold-plated"
In the solid wood furniture market, in addition to sub-charging and skin-changing clothes, there is a more interesting phenomenon is the keen "overseas gold-plated". Now you just have to take a look at the large furniture store, what Italian rosewood, American red oak, German beech, etc., and some even simply put "European imports", "Europe XX honors produced" and other slogans to increase the value of furniture . As everyone knows, behind this sky-high price furniture, there are a lot of local manufacturing in China. Those unintelligible but famous "foreign names" are just a layer of "foreign skin" to confuse consumers.
In fact, the "overseas gold-plated" chaos of solid wood furniture has a long history: false labeling, gold-plated foreign brands, chaotic distribution, and authorized OEM labeling have also been rampant in the furniture industry. It is reported that the "export to domestic" products under the banner of imports in China can be said to account for more than 95% of the current imported furniture, mostly produced in factories in Guangdong. For example, the same set of sofas is marked with a local brand and the price is about 8,000 yuan; if it is marked with Chinese and foreign assets, the price is about 20,000 yuan; if it is marked with American production, the price rises to 70,000 to 80,000 yuan. ; If it is made in Italy, it is more expensive.
Hu Zhongxin, secretary general of the China Home Decoration Association, said that in fact, whether it is domestic or overseas solid wood furniture, as long as it is real pure solid wood furniture, there is no essential difference. Consumers should not be fooled by the flags and high prices of businesses .
"Foreign brand" also exists fraud
The survey shows that the current solid wood furniture market is mixed, and many businesses are "selling sheep meat". Consumers who want to buy real pure solid wood furniture really need to polish their eyes.
The reporter found in the furniture market that many of the solid wood furniture in the foreign brand furniture sales shops that we do not understand and have not heard of. In fact, many of them are not pure solid wood. The backplane and drawers are mostly problematic. Merchants are fighting for the concept of "solid wood", not introducing pure mahogany or pure rosewood, but only solid wood furniture. In some "solid wood furniture" counters, some sales staff will tell you that this is "solid wood furniture", but only a layer of solid wood coat. However, if you do not understand the situation, I am afraid you will fall into the trap of solid wood furniture.
In response to the chaotic phenomenon of the solid wood furniture market, Hu Zhongxin, secretary general of the China Home Decoration Association, said that the current solid wood furniture market has no particularly good way to detect or identify solid wood furniture. He admits that there is always a phenomenon of counterfeiting and adulteration of solid wood furniture, and consumer complaints are also increasing day by day. There are many tree species that can be used as solid wood furniture. , Ordinary tree species can be described as precious tree species, or local products can be affixed with overseas labels, thereby making huge profits.
Doubts about "overseas certification" of solid wood furniture
Now people pay more and more attention to the quality of life and pursue low-carbon environmental protection and noble style. Many furniture manufacturers have seized this psychology of consumers, playing the "overseas gold-plated" brand of furniture.
In the solid wood furniture store, many "foreign brands" are hung with various certifications. When buying, the sales staff will also take out the furniture "import and export" bills to tell you that this is the Huanghua pear imported from Italy just a few days ago. Pure European style (decorative renderings) solid wood furniture. The reporter carefully watched these certifications, and then inquired on the Internet that some people on the Internet actually sell similar certifications for various furniture. One of the shopkeepers who claimed to be an authoritative certification for domestic furniture said that as long as they can provide simple information, they can help companies get certification, the cost is about 50,000 or 60,000 yuan.
In this regard, Hu Zhongxin, Secretary-General of the China Home Decoration Association, said that the current most authoritative certification in the furniture industry is the "Ten Rings" certification. The certification process is extremely strict. Its only certification body is the Environmental Certification Center of the Ministry of Environmental Protection. Of course, there is also a time limit for the certification of solid wood furniture, which usually lasts for one year. In addition, it also involves the issue of whether the certified furniture and the furniture sold are the same batch and the same material. It is recommended that consumers choose the certification body when choosing furniture. They must check the “product quality test report†of the furniture. The report will clearly indicate the material and formaldehyde content of the furniture.
Go to the regular store to buy other pictures cheaper
Hu Zhongxin, secretary general of the China Home Decoration Association, said that in the face of all kinds of solid wood furniture, consumers must let the merchant write the name, furniture material, and place of origin of the solid wood furniture on the purchase contract or purchase invoice, such as Pure Nanmu or framed black walnut, backed camphor wood, etc., the more detailed the better, so that in the future, if there is something wrong with the furniture, consumers have evidence, they can use these to protect their rights and interests. Secondly, you must go to the regular store to buy it, and you must compare the prices of the three stores. In addition, furniture belongs to customized products, which are often divided into two distribution methods: agents and direct stores. If it is an agent, it is even more necessary to carefully read the furniture label, which must be a regular product of the manufacturer, because there is an agent link in the middle. In the past, many things have happened. If consumers suspect that the furniture is not solid wood or have other quality problems after purchasing the furniture, they can entrust the quality inspection department (decoration rendering) to carry out the inspection. If the business is found to be fraudulent after the inspection, the consumer can file a claim for this.
