Solid Oak Wardrobes

Pine Solutions £429 - Right Price £449

Solid Oak
As a benchmark I'm going to look for a 100% Solid Oak Wardrobe.
Very quickly on this search the big names are ruled out, for example the Tesco Oakland Wardrobe despite costing £299 is a veneer.

Furniture Village at £1,169 were completely over the top, I was aiming at a price of around £500 max. Marks and Spencer's didn't seem to even have an offer that matched.

So next it was to the independents there are four big players in this field, these are companies that have been around for a long time, so you've almost got as much security as with a Furniture Village (more so if you took MFI as an example).

These are:-

Furniture Today
Pine Solutions
Oak Furniture Land
Right Price Furniture

If your after a contemporary style then Pine Solutions New Dorset carries the lowest ticket price although there is a delivery charge which throws the price up a little.

The New Dorset isn't a brand as such but it sounds decent and looking at reviews no doubt it's a quality piece of furniture.

Furniture Today £450
Right behind them are Furniture Today who with their Hereford Collection and at £450 Delivered looks to be a good deal and their offering a fast delivery.

As an outsider then Right Price Furniture with their Evergreen Rustic isn't a bad price considering it's Devonshire Pine Re badged. Devonshire Pine do have a little brand equity so might be worth a little more.

Just on the outside of this trio is Oak Furnitureland who at £487 are surprisingly given their normally aggressive prices not even in the running.

Now there are others out there who you could argue that could offer a similar sort of deal but they are mostly new start-ups.

Whilst I like to give new companies a try given the recent spat of furniture companies going through would prefer to trust a supplier that's been around for years.

They are all still independent companies so we're not sucking up to the man that much :)
