Mistake #1: Limiting yourself to local furniture stores

Once upon a time, it was unheard of to order something large and bulky like bedroom furniture over the internet. But today online furniture stores supply much of the demand for such items, and usually with free delivery. They’ll also have much larger selections than your local furniture store.

In addition, your local furniture store will only have discounts available a few times per year. Online furniture retailers, however, offer steep discounts daily, as well as a large variety of bedroom furniture collections in their ongoing clearance sale.

Another consideration is that, while your furniture arrives ready to place and set where you want it, you will pay for that privilege from your local furniture store. Online stores have free delivery that can save you hundreds, even if you hire a handyman service to assemble it for you. You might want to start at your local retailer to get an idea of your style options, but take your shopping online when it’s time to actually purchase your furniture.

Mistake #2: Getting too much furniture

There are a lot of measurements that go into finding the right amount and style of furniture for your bedroom. You need to know the dimensions of both the room and your desired bedroom set. However, this doesn’t reflect the true furniture space you have in your bedroom.

It is important to remember that you need room between the bed and the walls, to open the drawers of your nightstands or dresser, etc. You need to leave at least 2 feet of walk space around or between furniture so that there are no trip hazards. If you or someone you love requires a mobility device, you should expand that path to 3 feet in width.

Use these specifications to figure out just what furniture pieces will fit in your space. You can do so by making a paper or cardboard pattern of your desired furniture, or you can use an interior design app to simulate a floor plan. While the app works for some people, others need the visual, hands-on interaction of working with a pattern. When in doubt, don’t try to cram too much furniture into one space.

Mistake #3: Being unprepared for assembly

There is nothing wrong with getting furniture that requires some minor assembly, but it is important to be prepared for it. First, you’ll need to get the furniture into your home from the doorway, where it will undoubtedly be left. Once inside, you will likely need to do some minor assembly on even the bulkiest pieces.

You shouldn’t let that stop you from getting the bedroom set you really want, but you should be prepared for the inevitability of needing assistance. You can either talk to friends and family to find someone available to help you the day it arrives, or you can hire a general handyman to come to handle the assembly and placement for you. Either solution will be cheaper than the assembly and delivery charges from your local furniture store.

If you can, find out what pieces will be included in the box when your bedroom furniture arrives, as well as locating information about the instructions. This information will give you an idea of the tools you may need to have on hand. Most beds will require a screwdriver (Philips or flathead), Allen wrench, or socket set. You may also need a small hammer to assemble other pieces, like the nightstand drawers.

It is also a really good idea to check reviews of the product itself. You’ll find real customer feedback about how long assembly took, or how difficult the assembly was to finish. You can also find unboxing videos on YouTube to discover exactly what will be necessary when your new bed set arrives.

Of course, if you want to be fully prepared, contact your preferred online furniture store customer service line and let them know you would like to see the assembly instructions prior to making a purchase. Most of them will be more than happy to oblige, or they will at least answer all of your questions so that you are fully prepared when your new bedroom furniture arrives.
