We tell about how to go to furniture showrooms and what benefits are all familiar brands from the mass market.
Show-Ruma: Pros and Cons
Furniture showrooms can be found in every major city, but most of them, of course, in the capital. The work of such shops is built on the fact that furniture and accessories are set in limited quantities, most often things are purchased abroad by the Bayer team, which travel in the search for brands and items, difficult to be available for local buyers. Sometimes showrooms open interior designers and sell furniture and accessories, made on their own sketches.

Advantages of buying furniture and accessories in show figures
- Exclusivity. There are no large parties in the showrooms. Usually the number of one thing is 2-4 pieces rarely - up to 10. There are big chances to purchase a piece of furniture that you will not see in the apartment of friends or a neighbor.
- Individuality. For those who like to emphasize their own individuality and embody it in the interior, it is the showrooms. Even one designer thing can become the highlight that will make the whole interior.
- Availability of foreign brands and well-known collectible models. The opportunity to find those things and brands in the show figures that are not represented in the country in mass stores will definitely attract connoisseurs. For many it is important to come and see the thing, especially when it concerns furniture and interior, and not to order delivery from another country. Show-Ruma allow you to do it.
- Partially replace the furniture to order. Furniture, which is made by small parties or by individual design sketches can be non-standard sizes and partially replace furniture to order when I don't want to wait long to wait.

Disadvantages of furniture from showrooms
The main disadvantage is the price. It is always subjective, but in comparison with mass manufacturers, the difference is essential. Prices in show figures are rarely affordable. For wall clock, you can give an average of 15-25 thousand rubles, and even 200 thousand per sofa. It all depends on the brand and quality. And, of course, exclusive goods will cost more.Mass Market: pros and cons

Mass Market Benefits
- Price. Boldly put in the first place. And although over the past 3-4 years, due to the exchange rate, the same IKEA from the budget brand turned into an average segment, you can still find available collections. In addition, for the Russian market, the Swedish brand began to reduce prices and constantly announces this in its shares. As for the other above stores - they are even more affordable.
- Territorial accessibility and possibility of delivery. The fact is that to take advantage of showrooms with really cool design things and furniture may mostly residents of two capitals: Moscow and St. Petersburg. In major regional centers, there is also a choice and such an opportunity, but not always. The mass market is available almost everywhere, especially now when online sales and the same IKEA can be ordered through the online store.

Lack of mass market
The disadvantage is also only one - no exclusivity. If, of course, do not add it yourself. Examples are known when furniture from the mass market altered and gave her another life. For example, with an unusual apron and replacement of accessories, a kitchen from Ikea or Leroy Merlin can be transformed beyond recognition. Depends on the fantasy of buyers.
And now, let's bring some results.

Thirdly, for exclusivity. If you want the furniture that it will be difficult to meet the neighbor or in a friend's apartment, show ruma will help.
What to go to the mass market?
The mass market can be the basis of high-quality interior, if you approach the design of the room with a fantasy. Do not buy all accessories and headsets in one store, as a result of the apartment "screamed" - here all from the same store. Even professional designers are not shy to use the mass market furniture, but combine it with the right finish, select new fittings, combine styles and choose the corresponding decor.
Mixed mass market and designer things - this is the way you can create a stylish interior.
