Furnishing Your Home on a Shoe-String Budget
Have you seen the changes in furniture? Think about how something
as simple as buying a new piece of furniture can change how
a person feels about their home. Now that ready-to-assemble
furniture (commonly called RTA) is so widely available, and
the prices so much lower than ready-made, it is opening a
whole new demographic for being able to buy quality furniture
pieces.
"Are People Happy to Buy RTA Furniture?" You bet
they are! To be able to furnish a house, apartment, office,
dorm room, etc., without breaking the bank has resulted in
an enormous increase in online RTA sales. RTA furniture is
one of the fastest growing segments of the furniture market
internationally.
"How about the Quality of RTA?" Design, engineering,
production, testing and packaging are done in-house. Each
component of every product is carefully engineered to be produced
with minimal handling, without compromising quality, function
and value. Testing is done to meet and exceed National Safe
Test "Drop Test" standards. Products are typically
made from a combination of "engineered woods." These
materials are bonded together with a synthetic resin, in a
process under high heat and pressure to make a very stable,
environmentally friendly product. The result is dense, strong
panels, which are then laminated with durable, attractive
finishes. Better materials can be afforded when the buyer
saves on expensive shipping costs by buying items that come
flat-packaged.
Consumers have demanded current design trends as well as
durability. And while standards have increased tremendously,
a buyer's pocketbook still forces them to watch the price.
Younger buyers want to create stylish rooms that mesh with
the latest technology, i.e., slim and modern designs well
known to RTA easily win out over heavier and costlier furnishings.
"Is it easy to Assemble?" Yes. Each unit comes
with detailed assembly instructions and one person can assemble
most things in well under an hour. Surveys indicate approximately
50% of the assemblers are female customers and most find the
assembly instructions very easy to follow. Oftentimes, sales
& marketing employees assemble and write the instructions
to make sure we provide enough common sense directions.
"What is Available in RTA Furniture?" Every room
in the home is a candidate for RTA furniture. Over the years,
the industry has evolved and you will find bedroom sets, tables,
desk and office furniture, entertainment furniture, and dining
room furniture. There is more on the way.
Now you are just as likely to find a designer look bedroom
set at your online etailer as at an uptown specialty furniture
store. RTA makes a stylishly furnished home possible for almost
everyone.
