decoration itself is an artistic job, and there is no fixed solution. Therefore, every time, there is a trend in the decoration circle, saying: There is no need to buy expensive things, what must be installed... etc. The users who often watch it are dazzled and don’t know where to go.
The 7 shared in this issue are like this. There is no common sense but it is growing wildly. It really should stop!
statement 1. There is no difference between expensive tiles and cheap
At first, I thought there was no difference, so after choosing tiles for the first house that cost 95 yuan per piece, I directly chose tiles for the second house that cost 35 yuan per piece, saying it was delivered directly by the factory, which was more cost-effective.
was first laid, and there was no difference, but after moving in, I found a problem:
① Cheap tiles are obviously not of the quality, they are easily scratched and smashed. After living in for half a year, there are already five or six pits;
② It is easy to seep and yellowing signs. If the dark stains dripped on them are not cleaned in time, they will leave marks;
③After dragging, there will always be watermarks on the surface, and the more you dragging, the less bright the color, this will become more obvious.
So, there is really a difference between expensive tiles and cheap ones. However, relatively speaking, cheap ones have low profits and expensive ones have higher premiums. However, as long as the economy allows and the family lives for you, it is better to not buy too cheap bricks like 20 or 30 yuan, at least 60 or 70 yuan, and the quality is more guaranteed.
statement 2. It is better to install central air conditioners in the whole house
"Don't have a cabinet + hang up, the central air conditioners in the whole house are good-looking." This is what many home bloggers say, which has led to many people regardless of the actual situation at home and spend huge amounts of money to install central air conditioners that are dragged on.
But in fact, central air conditioning is more suitable for large-area residential buildings, such as flat floors, duplexes or luxury houses, which can reflect its energy-saving and wide coverage area. If the indoor area is only about 100 square meters, it is recommended to choose vertical and hanging up.
If the living room has small space and needs to be considered for appearance, you can consider the air duct machine. It can be done with four or five thousand yuan. The bedroom is directly hung up, and the cooling and heating are enough.
Compared with central air conditioners, the advantages of this combination are still very obvious:
① The price is cheap, and the central air conditioner costs 30,000 yuan for a two-bedroom and one-living house, and the hang-up + air duct machine can be done with just over 10,000 yuan;
② The noise is low, especially in the bedroom, when the sleep mode is turned on, there is almost no noise, and the central air conditioner always has a whirring sound of wind, which is very unfriendly to people with light sleep;
③ Maintenance and cleaning are convenient, and cabinets and hang-ups have special detergents, which can be disassembled, washed and cleaned by doing yourself, which is relatively cleaner, and the central air conditioner is completely incomparable to this point.
Furthermore, there are many people around who sell and install central air conditioners who do not install them at home, and the reason can be imagined.
statement 3. If you have a budget balcony, you must have a panoramic floor-to-ceiling window
Many bloggers say that the panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows are beautiful and transparent, so that people with a budget must experience it. Some people can't help it, so they dress accordingly. After installing
, I found that the entire glass-shaped window is only suitable for houses that are transparent to the north and south. Even if a house is only opened with a small window, it will not affect ventilation. Your home is not transparent to the north and south, and the windows on the south are sealed, so the ventilation effect will of course be greatly reduced.
Furthermore, the glass itself has a three-in-thousand chance of self-destruction. Such a large surface of glass is prone to safety hazards.
So, if there is no peerless scenery in front of the window, don’t believe this “deformal” statement. Ordinary windows are good, cheap and ventilated.
statement 4. You must have fresh air system at home
Although the fresh air system is friendly to indoor air quality, it is definitely not necessary to install it!
At present, the air quality in my country is still good, and it has not been popularized to fresh air . Unless the place where the smog is very serious, it is really good to install other places or not.
Also, the price of this system is not cheap, it can be installed in the whole house for tens of thousands of yuan. Moreover, if you want to achieve the effect of installing it, you have to open it all year round, it costs electricity, is difficult to repair, cannot be replaced, etc. There are many problems.
Instead of this, it is better to use air purifier to solve the problem. It is low cost, can be replaced, flexible and convenient.
statement 5. Just buy cheap refrigerators and washing machines
Of course, cheap ones can be used, but don’t say that people who buy expensive ones are stupid. Take washing machines for example. Many people say that pulsers are better than drums, but if you have really used more than 6,000 drums, you can feel that a pulser of one or two thousand is really incomparable to it.
washing rate may be similar, but soft power such as clothing protection and anti-winding are not at the same level as . You will know if you have used it.
, including refrigerators, and has freezing and refrigeration functions, but the same food has the ability to lock and keep fresh, which is absolutely different from . My previous experience was that the delicate green leafy vegetables were kept in expensive refrigerators for about half a month, and they were quite fresh, while the cheap refrigerators were just a few days away. So, don’t admit that in most cases, expensive means good.
statement 6. You must look at the brand when choosing wooden flooring
. What you really don’t need to look at is wooden flooring. As long as it is not the kind of miscellaneous brand you haven’t heard of before, it’s OK.
We mainly need to check three points:
① Environmental protection level, if it is greater than E0 level, it is OK;
② Floor material, if you are not a rich man, don’t choose pure solid wood. The price is expensive and maintenance is also troublesome. Just choose solid wood composite flooring directly. It is preferred, three layers of solid wood, followed by multiple layers of solid wood. If the budget is really tight, E0-level laminate flooring is also OK;
③ Look at the color and choose the color and pattern you like. It is recommended that the simpler the pattern, the better.
statement 7. There is no need for a dryer clothes dryer
How many people are cheated by this statement, and they spent a lot of money to install the dryer and completely abandon the clothes dryer. As a result, after moving in, they found that it was impossible to do without the clothes dryer.
Drying small underwear, children's clothes, socks, etc., is too troublesome to dry, so you still have to use a clothes dryer. Therefore, it is recommended that everyone should try to leave space for the clothes dryer even if the dryer is installed.
Don’t want to install too big ones, you can install this kind of invisible folded ones, stretch them out when used, and put them away when not used, not eye-catching or occupying space.
