1. Wood. Natural wood furniture looks luxurious, expensive and homely. It is made from cherry, oak, walnut and other types of wood. The disadvantages of this material include the high price and the need for care. The tree may crack or shrivel from moisture, under the influence of low and high temperatures.
2. DSP. Furniture made from this material is the most affordable. Chipboard is practical and durable: it does not stratify and does not crack with time. Chipboard is not afraid of temperature fluctuations, mechanical damage, resistant to moisture, undemanding to care.
3. MDF. This material is more expensive than chipboard. Furniture made of veneered MDF outwardly practically does not differ from elite furniture made of natural wood.
