Aesthetics
Pine furniture has a very attractive open grain which means that every single piece of furniture has a unique character, with knotty pine sought after for its striking natural appearance.
If you are redecorating the rooms in your home consider this - naturally light coloured timber with fresh and contemporary features partners a lot of types of materials and furnishings. Purchasing dark wood furniture in a room that has light coloured furnishings can run the risk of making your furniture stand out too much and look uncomfortable in a 'softer' styled room; with pine furniture you won't have that problem. Pine furniture has a look that can compliment many styles and designs.
Quality
As well as timeless style the quality of the wood is some of the highest in the industry but only from the right retailer. Many retailers stock and sell cheap alternatives to pine wood and bad quality pine furniture, so what should you look out for when buying pine? Ask the questions that matter, the retailer should be able to tell you everything you need to know about the piece of furniture. Look at the specification of the product, many cheaper alternatives are not solid wood the whole way through and rather than buying quality pine that will last a long time, you will be purchasing something that could only last a few months.
Price
It is one of the most cost effective woods you can buy. Perfect if you are on a tight budget but still looking for great quality furniture. When it comes to manufacturing, pine is a soft wood so it is easier to cut and join meaning that pine is not as expensive as hardwoods.
For new homeowners and young people pine furniture is the perfect choice because of all the extra costs that come with buying a new house or starting out in the working world.
Environmentally Friendly
We all know the impact of not being 'green' these days and the importance of using renewable resources. When buying furniture, cheaper alternatives can be manufactured using oil to give a wood effect, but with pine furniture you know you are guaranteed real wood and the satisfaction that you are using a renewable resource.
