"Solid wood" furniture is not all solid wood with pure
A lot of people think that all solid wood furniture is made with solid wood furniture, this is not the case. Hundred, according to Wen-Qiang Yang, director of research and development of furniture, the new "wood furniture general technical conditions" standard solid wood furniture will be divided into three categories: pure solid wood furniture, solid wood furniture and solid wood veneer furniture.
Only all the parts are produced by the use of solid wood furniture solid wood furniture can be called pure; solid wood furniture has its sights set combining wood furniture, that is, table, table (chair) framework, such as the use of solid wood legs, and side panels, at the end of top shelf parts, such as use of wood-based panel (MDF, particleboard and so are man-made board) Production of furniture; veneer and solid wood furniture is the use of wood-based panel production, the surface used for decorative wood veneer furniture.
In the market, businesses will have combined board wood veneer or solid wood furniture to posing as pure solid wood furniture. So before buying, you must ask first phase of solid wood furniture in the end is pure solid wood or wood combined board or wood veneer, in the signing of contracts, must be the main and auxiliary materials wood material in a clear written contract.
In fact, to solid wood furniture is not difficult to distinguish. With pure solid wood furniture is solid wood production, there is no Edge, the horizontal plane (horizontal) and vertical plane (vertical plane) of the lines, the growth rings can be cis for down, and the longer the deeper the color; If Some of the characteristics in line with this, some do not meet, that is, combination of solid wood boards wood furniture, a combination of points, if the components have Edge, solid wood furniture has a unique surface, although the natural lines, but the color green, the use of a section of time after the color change, that is, wood veneer furniture.
Different characteristics of different tree species What is made of solid wood species, and a direct impact on the price and quality of furniture, even if pure solid wood furniture are used in different species, can be the difference between the price a few times, so is the tree you need to buy solid wood furniture Taking into account the second major factor, we must note in the contract-ching.
Black Walnut: Black Walnut mainly from North America and Europe. Mottschulsky Light purple ribbon, cut the pattern for the parabola. Black walnut is very expensive, so usually only used for furniture veneer.
Cherry: cherry wood imported mainly from Europe and North America, wood light brown, the middle section of parabolic pattern, patterns among a small circle. And black walnut, the cherry is also a high-grade timber, furniture veneer is usually rarely used as core material furniture.
Beech: bright pale yellow color, the surface density of "needle" linear texture, have a parabolic cross-section pattern. European beech defective imports less imports of beech is a medium in the domestic high-grade wood veneer used to do, and sometimes also used as a dining chair and so on.
Maple: pale yellow color, the pattern was clear water ripples, or were thin stripes, maple is a medium timber, used for veneer and solid wood furniture are common.
Birch: Birch light yellow color, and there is a multi-texture and line. Birch wood is also a mid-range, solid wood used for furniture and veneer are common.
Rubber Wood: color is light brown, a clutter of small rays, soft texture, is low-grade timber wood. Some business called "Oak" was in fact move to fish in troubled waters. Oak is more expensive real, appearance, construction, material, wood and rubber are different.
Great know-how to identify quality Understanding of the above two points, you can according to their own economic strength to the selection of a preferred solid wood furniture. However, the same solid wood furniture, how to distinguish the quality and the bad? Said Wen-Qiang Yang, from the following four points to determine the quality of furniture workmanship.
Purchase of furniture and product brochures to request and view furniture product specification, it is a formal qualified manufacturers for the sale of products issued by the factory's "identity." Manual for the future can not only provide the basis for the quality of the dispute, consumers can also choose to provide a reference, because the product specification must be used for materials, performance, environmental indicators, moisture content and other aspects described. However, some businesses will be "supporting statement with the sale of furniture," refused to produce a brochure, you can request to provide samples of business manuals, reference play a role.
Manual moisture content will also express the moisture content of products, in general, the statement marked by the moisture content of 8% -12% better.
Impact on the appearance of scarring are more beautiful, so the better the less scarring, formal furniture manufacturers are doing, the scarring will be obvious or invisible as far as possible into place. Although a lot of furniture are known as dried skim through, but it is inevitable that non-standardized dried skim the manufacturers do not place the product insects have eyes, such a product should not be elected, otherwise the future is likely to find the phenomenon of moth-eaten.
Metal hardware including hinges and slide. The use of good solid wood furniture is well-known brands hinge, slide, and the well-known brands will be left in the product label or name, remove the drawer, careful observation, you will find. In addition, the hardware will be a good use of damping technology, this switch doors, the drawer does not produce noise. At the time of purchase, may wish to switch a few more doors, drawers, the more smoothly, showing that a product the better.
Relatively durable tempered glass, even if broken, toppling particles will not hurt. Ordinary glass is not only thin, and transparent, very transparent, and tempered glass in a certain light, looks a bit fuzzy, not as transparent glass.
Misunderstanding of the substrate the greater the consumption the better the more the whole Many people think that the production of solid wood furniture throughout the greater the more the better, and those with small pieces are spliced together definitely do not have access to the small material, waste, in fact, is not the case. Region in the north, the climate is arid, wood itself is easy to deformation, cracking, more large pieces of wood, the whole, the more prone to this situation, if the sub has a small deformation of wood products can be reduced, the possibility of cracking, many the production of solid wood furniture manufacturers have to cut into small chunks of wood together and then gear then, and is precisely for this reason.
Maintenance required to play twice a year, wax Regardless of the type of solid wood furniture, solid wood is its surface, so maintenance is the same method. Normally, with a dry cloth to wipe the surface of dust, and then two and a wet cloth to clean it. Year, you wax twice with complete maintenance would be sufficient. At present, many supermarket sales of furniture wax can reach the corresponding effect. If in the course of day-to-day use, careless damage to the solid wood furniture, such as scratches, defects, reputable manufacturers are generally back to the factory maintenance, warranty does not charge admission.
