The moisture content of wood for office furniture does not exceed 12%:

The moisture content of office furniture should not exceed 12%. If the moisture content is high, the wood will warp and deform easily. General consumers do not have testing equipment when purchasing, so they can use the method of touching the bottom of the furniture or the unpainted inside. If it feels damp, the moisture content is at least 50% or more, and it cannot be used at all.
 

 

The materials of office furniture are selected according to the needs:

Office furniture is made of different materials according to different types of furniture. For example, if the desk needs to be made of wood, hardwood can generally be used. It is relatively strong and has good load-bearing capacity. The thickness of the countertop should reach 2.5CM. If it is too thick, it will be bulky , too thin and easy to bend and deform. Office furniture that needs to be moisture-proof cannot use fiberboard. Fiberboard is easy to expand and damage when exposed to water.
 

The structure of office furniture needs to be firm:

When choosing a small piece of office furniture, you can drag it on the ground, try to pick it up, etc., and tap it lightly. If the sound is crisp and clear, it means that the quality is good. If the sound is hoarse, if there is no sound, the combination is not tight and the structure is not strong.
 

Whether the four feet of office furniture are flat:

This point can be seen at a glance on the flat ground, and some furniture only has three legs on the ground. Take a look to see if the tabletop is straight, not arched or slumped. The desktop is raised, and the glass plate will spin when placed on it; the desk surface is concave, and the glass plate will shatter when placed on it. Pay attention to check the cabinet door, the seam of the drawer should not be too large, it should be horizontal and straight, and the door should not sag.
 

 

The joints of solid wood veneer office furniture need to be tight:

For solid wood veneer office furniture, pay attention to whether the surface is pasted smoothly, whether there are bulges, blisters, and lax seams.
 

For solid furniture veneered with particleboard, the ground part must be edge-sealed, otherwise the board will absorb moisture, swell and be damaged. Generally, the corners of veneer furniture are easy to warp, you can buckle the corners with your hands when selecting, if it rises as soon as you buckle, it means that there is something wrong with the glue.
 

Whether the installation of office furniture accessories is reasonable:

For example, check whether the door lock switch of the filing cabinet is not working properly; a large filing cabinet should be equipped with three hidden hinges, and some can only be equipped with two; It will fall off after use.
 

 

 Whether the edge banding of office furniture is smooth:

The edge banding of office furniture is uneven, indicating that the inner material is wet, and the edge banding will fall off in a few days. The edge banding should also have rounded corners, not straight edges and right angles. The edges sealed with wooden strips are prone to moisture or cracking. For furniture inlaid with plywood, nails are used to nail the strips. Pay attention to whether the nail holes are flat and whether the color of the nail holes is consistent with other places. Usually the nail hole is sealed with putty. Pay attention to whether the putty has bulged.
 

The painted part of office furniture should be smooth:

The painted part of the painted office furniture should be smooth and flat, no saliva, no wrinkles, no lumps. The corners cannot be straight and right angles, and the straight edges are prone to chipping and paint falling off. The inside of the door of the furniture should also be painted. Without paint, the board is easy to bend, and it is not beautiful.
