What makes shopping in person different from Online?
Look, we love online shopping as much as anyone. So we know that buying in person can be a tough sell, especially in today’s tech-obsessed world where virtually (pun intended) every division of commerce is shifting online.
But when it comes to furniture, getting off the couch and into a store is not only preferable—it’s necessary.After all, these pieces are investments; whether you’re looking to furnish an entire house or you just need a new coffee table, the furniture you buy is likely (and hopefully) to be in your home for years to come. While shopping online has its perks of convenience, it can be difficult to actually gauge the look, feel, and size of the item for sale. And there’s nothing worse than ordering a piece of furniture online and finding out upon delivery that it’s made poorly, been misrepresented, or too large or small. Are you willing to take that risk on your home sweet home?
Since many pieces of furniture need to be tested for durability and comfort, in-store shopping allows for more accurate and informed purchases. Most furniture stores offer expansive showroom selections which allow for a comprehensive experience, ensuring that each customer has the opportunity to browse a variety of items before making a selection. Issues with color variation, differences between real wood and veneers or other materials, and overall quality can all be neutralized by shopping in-store instead of online. Furniture stores may also surprise you with their delivery and assembly options. For many—especially those without sufficient physical strength or transportation—one of the main perks of online furniture shopping is the fact that you don’t need to transport your purchase home. But just because you’re browsing and buying in person, this doesn’t mean you have to lug your new item home yourself. Most, if not all, furniture stores offer qualified and capable deliverers who not only save you the trip, but also save you the worry of damaging the purchase en-route or when setting it up in your home–and assembling it incorrectly.
Another in-store advantage is the ability to customize. Why settle for something made for someone else when you can have something made specifically for you? Many furniture stores, like Dayton’s newest arrival, acclaimed Furniture Fair, offer a wide selection of customizable items to guarantee that each customer finds exactly what they’re looking for. Furniture Fair specifically offers a selection of upholstery lines, woods, and colors—along with 50 custom finishes and 60 hardware options—to create an item that will fit perfectly into in your home.
