High-end or low-end furniture: understand the differences

When it comes to choosing furniture for our home, we're often faced with a dilemma: opt for cheaper, low-end furniture or invest in top-quality, high-end furniture.

In this article, we'll explore the differences between these two types of furniture, highlighting the manufacturing techniques, materials used and advantages of choosing high-end furniture like that offered by Casavogue.

What you need to know to tell the difference

1. Manufacturing techniques

Low-end furniture is often manufactured using mass-production techniques, such as assembly with cheap screws and glues. These fast, inexpensive manufacturing methods can compromise the long-term durability and quality of the furniture.

In contrast, high-end furniture is crafted with meticulous attention to detail and quality. They are often handcrafted by skilled artisans using traditional construction techniques such as dovetail joints and mortise-and-tenon joints, guaranteeing exceptional strength and durability.

This is the case for many bedroom models at Durham furniture a local Quebec brand we carry at Casavogue.

2. Quality materials

Low-end furniture is generally made from cheap, low-quality materials such as plywood, MDF (medium-density fiberboard) and plastic coverings.

These materials can be less durable and resistant to damage. On the other hand high-end furniture is made from high-quality materials such as solid wood, cherry or oak, genuine leather and high-end fabrics.

The Italian brand Max Divani brand, which you can find at Casavogue, meticulously selected leather is used for their loveseats, sectionals and armchairs are of superior quality and selected in Italy, guaranteeing maximum longevity.

These luxury Italian furniture offers incomparable durability, strength and aesthetics, ensuring that your furniture will be with you for decades to come.

3. Design and aesthetics

Low-end furniture often has a generic, uninspired design, with little attention paid to detail and aesthetics. High-end furniture, on the other hand, is designed by talented designers who bring a touch of originality and sophistication to every room.

Such is the case of Michael Amini who draws inspiration from his many travels to create collections of glamorous chic furniture with meticulously thought-out details. They are often characterized by clean lines, impeccable finishes and refined details, like the living room collection, dining room set and bedroom La Rachelle.

Adding a touch of luxury to any space.
