I. Encountered Issues
- Lack of Understanding of Furniture Materials, Craftsmanship, and Environmental Standards
- Problem Description: For foreign friends purchasing furniture in China for the first time, the complexity of furniture materials (such as solid wood, artificial boards, metals, etc.), exquisite craftsmanship (like mortise and tenon joints, carving techniques, etc.), and diverse environmental standards (e.g., E0, E1 grades) can be overwhelming. This often leads to confusion and concerns about making satisfactory choices.
- Case Study: Some foreign customers might mistakenly select furniture made of unsuitable materials for their living environment, such as choosing non-moisture-resistant wood for a humid setting.
- Concerns about Potential Safety Hazards in Furniture
- Problem Description: The safety of furniture directly affects the health and wellbeing of residents, encompassing factors like rounded corners, adequate load-bearing capacity, and the absence of toxic substance emissions like formaldehyde. These hazards are often undetectable to laymen but can have severe consequences.
- Case Study: A foreign customer purchased an unstable bookcase, which collapsed while books were being placed on it, injuring family members.
- Difficulty in Assessing Suppliers’ Quality Management Systems
- Problem Description: With numerous furniture suppliers in the market, the level of quality management varies significantly. Customers find it challenging to determine which supplier has a robust quality management system that ensures product quality through simple communication or observation.
- Case Study: A foreign customer trusted the promises of a small furniture factory and purchased a sofa that soon developed issues like fraying and deformation. The factory refused to take any responsibility.
II. Problem Analysis
Quality and safety are core issues in furniture procurement, directly impacting customers’ usage experience and health. For foreign customers, these issues are further exacerbated by differences in language, culture, and standards. Therefore, providing comprehensive quality assurance becomes a crucial task for furniture manufacturers.
