I bought a modern well made dresser from some exotic wood, cost me roughly €900 amd it got damaged after moving but i haven't taken the time to repair it as it's only visual.
That thing is solid af, it has more hidden supports than it needs. I could probably park a car on top and it would withstand the weight. (Obv. i haven't tested that lol)
We went shopping for a tv cabinet and 99% turned out to be particle board but they still had the audacity to charge between €1200 and €1800 euro's.
Yea. It's really bad looking for something online. They may be under the "solid wood" category for material, but they still are 90% particle board.
I prefer spending extra knowing that I'll have something for decades and not have to replace it in a year or two. Fortunately for me, about 80% of my homes furniture is from Habitat for Humanity. They are fantastic for having a good selection of quality stuff for cheap. Some might need a little repair, but they tend to only accept decent stuff in the first place.
