Trap 1: Cabinet planning becomes a problem.
◤ Buy cabinets after renovation?
The installation of cabinets is the last step. Many people have a misunderstanding, that is, it is not too late to buy cabinets after the kitchen is renovated. In this way, when the cabinets are in place, it is already a few months after the renovation, and friends who are eager to move in will be very annoyed. More importantly, the cabinets are ordered after renovation, and your favorite style may have to be abandoned because you can't find the location of gas and water pipes.
Bian Xiao reminds: Before the decoration, please ask the cabinet manufacturer to measure the size, determine the style and model of the cabinet, reserve the pipeline interface in the cabinet, and accurately expose the pipeline during the decoration, so that the cabinet can be installed on site.
◤ think that the more cabinets, the more useful.
The kitchen space is limited. Many owners think that installing as many cabinets as possible will make the kitchen have more storage space, but too many cabinets will not only occupy the activity space, but also make the kitchen look heavy and depressed.
Bian Xiao reminded: Generally speaking, it is advisable that the kitchen floor space occupied by cabinets should not exceed 1/2. Once the average value is exceeded, the kitchen space will become crowded; In addition, the ratio of the hanging cabinet to the ground cabinet is not more than 1: 1.3, and the distance between the hanging cabinet and the ground cabinet is about 650-700 mm
Trap 2: Pay attention to the appearance of the cabinet.
Ignore kitchen function
Many young friends pay more attention to the fashion appearance in the selection of cabinets, ignoring its most practical function-storage, so that many "unexpected" things have nowhere to put after the cabinets enter the home, and all kinds of sundries are piled up in the kitchen, even the fashionable cabinets have become a foil.
Bian Xiao reminded: Small household appliances, all kinds of pots and pans, tableware, spices and staple grains are all items that must be stored in the kitchen. With so many odds and ends, what we need most is a cabinet with powerful storage function. Therefore, when purchasing cabinets, the storage function is a priority, followed by the appearance.
◤ "sample first" mentality
When some friends choose cabinets, they take a fancy to a certain brand and go to the store for a walk. When they choose a good style, they place an order. Do you think this can be done? In fact, the sample cabinets with cold colors in the store are sometimes not the case when they are moved home. The effect of cabinets will also be affected by the kitchen environment, lighting and decoration color.
Bian Xiao reminded: The model cabinets look gorgeous in the lighting and bright environment of the store, but the most ideal selection standard is to choose the color and material of the cabinets according to the style, tone, lighting and size of the kitchen. For example, it is not recommended to use cabinet products with exaggerated edge shapes in small kitchens; Complex carved door panels are not recommended in Chinese kitchens.
Trap 3: Details are not important.
◤ blindly believe in brands
Generally, when choosing cabinets, consumers are advised to choose regular brands, but don't blindly believe these brands. After all, many brands will use the slogan of cooperation with a certain brand, but consumers don't know whether there is such cooperation, or even whether the quality of these products is reliable.
Bian Xiao reminded: While choosing a regular cabinet brand, we should also carefully examine the quality of the cabinet, which is generally identified by the processes of plate, countertop, drilling and edge sealing. Good cabinet plates and countertops are sturdy and wear-resistant, and drilling and edge sealing are done very carefully.
◤ Hardware accessories are not important.
Cabinet is one of the most used building materials for hardware fittings, and the quality of hardware fittings directly affects the service life of the cabinet. Some owners don't understand this truth, and only pay attention to the appearance, the quality of plates and countertops when purchasing. In this way, the longer they use it, the hardware accessories will become the main reason for the dilapidated cabinets.
Bian Xiao reminds: When choosing a cabinet, you can first look at the brand of hardware fittings it uses. The quality of general hardware accessories will also affect the price of cabinets. If economic conditions permit, you can choose higher-grade hardware accessories to make the cabinet more durable.
Trap 4: Ignore the actual quality of cabinets.
◤ credulous "environmental protection" certification
When it comes to the use of plates, the environmental protection of cabinets has attracted consumers' attention. As long as you walk around the store, you will find many things such as "all environmental protection", "E0 box" and "anti-collision strips to avoid formaldehyde release". In fact, many of these things are the hype of businesses. After consumers buy them, they find that these so-called "environmental protection" knowledge is the same concept.
Bian Xiao reminded: The environmental protection of cabinets is related to the environmental protection performance, processing technology and installation technology of plates. From the practical point of view, 100% environmental protection cabinet is difficult to achieve, and the "ten ring certification" certified by China environmental protection mark shall prevail when purchasing.
◤ The choice of panel depends only on the surface performance.
Now there are more and more properties of cabinet panels, which are waterproof, fireproof and scratch-proof. These attributes are actually the surface attributes of the panel, and the actually used plate is the most important. Many consumers who don't understand are deceived by these attributes and ignore the substantive things.
Bian Xiao reminds: Cabinet panels are generally made of solid wood, plywood, large core board and other materials. It is most important for consumers to distinguish the density and quality of cabinet plates, and it is also a necessary condition for selecting cabinets with good quality.
The above are four misunderstandings about the cabinet purchase compiled by Bian Xiao for everyone. The proportion of cabinets in the home improvement budget is a large part. Avoiding these four traps can make our furniture more valuable and our kitchen more perfect. ↖(^ω^)↗
