New furniture !
Hi guys Im getting married in about a month and right now im in the
midst of filling my house with all kinds of things, and all of a sudden my wife(to be) said "NO! we cant have that bed, because it is made of chipboard(particle board), and that wil break fast". Then she continued to complain about all the furnitures I had spent valuable time and money on. I my self dont see any fault in these kind of products, but on the other hand I'm note the kind that fix things, I only make them and then if they break I throw them away. My question here is how long is the longevity of furniture made out of chipboard ? and is there any other good cheap alternatives ? ************************* From Sweden with wood...

i guess it depends on how rough she plans you to be in bed..... I've never
seen particle board furniture break under normal usage. s wrote in message ...

She will not change to your way later. The only person you can chage is yourself. If those two things are unacceptable to you, maybe you should pass on this one. |

The only person you can chage is yourself. If those two things are unacceptable to you, maybe you should pass on this one. A man thinks the woman he marries will never change; she will. A woman thinks she can change the man she marries; she can't. There are exceptions. To the common female complaint: "Why are all the good men married?", the answer is simple: it's marriage that makes them good! |

And this Happy Wife would not appreciate being left out of the furniture buying process. Talk about asking for trouble, furnishing the place without her input? It's just common sense, if my intended went ahead and furnished the place with crappy chipboard, I'd be annoyed, but even if it was the finest hardword, if it's ugly, same thing. She's got to like it too. nancy |
