The Unfinished Furniture Uns

Why you should buy unfinished furniture

If you're tired of the cheap stuff, and you're ready for your furniture to grow up and grow with you, then unfinished furniture is the way to go! It's unmatched in its quality, unblemished in its reputation, unbeatable in its lasting value, and ununinhibited in its choices.

Unmatched
Unfinished furniture is unmatched in its quality because it's made of real wood. No particle board is used to replace the real thing. Finished furniture is typically a mix of real wood and particle board. Why is this a problem? Humidity causes real wood to expand and contract. The fake stuff doesn't. So, if the furniture is a combination of both, then the joints will eventually break. However, the natural expansion and contraction of real wood in a piece that's made of only real wood will cause no change in the real wood furniture's structural integrity. When comparing real wood unfinished furniture vs finished furniture, think Superman vs. the next American Idol in some strange strength reality show. Although the singer would be awfully entertaining, he'd be no match for Superman.
Unblemished
Unfinished furniture is unblemished in its reputation because what you see is what you get. With finished furniture, your piece could have knots, obvious weak points, or other defects, and you'd never know it - until your item began to fall apart. Unfinished furniture manufacturers must use a higher grade lumber in furniture production, because they cannot hide any defects under a finish. It's like having an insurance policy with no hidden loopholes. Nice, right? Here's a tip - Look for real wood furniture certified by the Unfinished Furniture Association. Unfinished furniture retailers who follow the standards of this association will display their seal in their stores and on their websites.
Unbeatable
Unfinished furniture is unbeatable in its lasting value. Real woods can be refinished and repaired. Therefore, there'd be no need to replace that perfect piece that is already a treasured part of your family's day-to-day just because your pirate-loving nephew carved his treasure map onto your dining room table! This kind of value makes that initial investment more than worth it.
Uninhibited
Unfinished furniture is uninhibited because of the myriad of choices it gives you! Instead of trying to find the perfect place for your new piece, you can customize the perfect piece of unfinished furniture for your space! Plus, you don't have to conform to someone else's style and color choice. You choose the style and finish. You can be creative, from a simple wood stain and varnish to a more elaborate stenciled or distressed finish. or how about some faux painting? Make it elegant, make it funky, or make it charming! Just stain it, paint it, and make it yours! Do it yourself or use the convenient custom-finishing services provided by most retailers.
