CUSTOM FURNITURE VS MANUFACTURED FURNITURE

If you have not yet upgraded your furniture and are looking to do so to change the overall look of your house or office or just need to replace a piece from your collection. You surely must have or will go through the decision of choosing the best fit for your desired place. In the past, only the offices or businesses had the option to choose and have made custom pieces but now with continued industrialization custom furniture is almost in everyone’s grasp. In this blog, we will take you through some important aspects and differences between these two and hopefully, this will help you in your decision of what to buy.

QUALITY:

  • A furniture quality can be defined in various terms but the most common would be how long it might last. If you go with manufactured furniture, you might be skipping out on quality. Why do we say that? As opposed to customized furniture which is made with utmost care and specifically paid attention to by designers, manufactured furniture is made by machines and there is a high possibility that they may produce some faulty parts.

COST:

  • The cost of customized furniture and manufactured furniture is roughly the same, to begin with, but you can change the cost attached to a piece of custom furniture depending on your budget if it is not possible to get a piece made in your desired value the designer will make changes and offer you something that will be favorable to you and your pocket but you do not get to make that choice in manufactured furniture.

ADAPTABILITY:

  • The edge that you get from custom furniture is fit according to the size. You can have them made of a size that fits snugly in your room, based on the space you got at your place you can have them altered accordingly. You cannot do that with manufactured furniture as they do not offer this feature.

ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS:

  • Manufactured furniture is mass-produced so it requires different materials from various parts of the world, due to their unavailability the company may have to use synthetics which might not be suitable for our health and cutting down timber and importing it puts a heavy tax on the nature and the economy of the country. Customized furniture though is made from local, sustainable resources. If timber is being used then its cultivation is made important by the developer.

RESALE:

Mass-produced furniture or manufactured furniture even if used properly does get worn out earlier than usual and it is so much available in the market that their resale value and chances are quite low. Customized furniture, however, being of better quality survives daily use and is a unique piece which gives it a high resale value, if an antique piece is being kept then it increases the value of the product many fold.

To summarize, customized furniture is a better option, it is not much costly and at this price, you get great quality and value for the money you spent. Now you know where to invest if you are looking for furniture it is guaranteed that you will get what you ordered.
