When you order furniture, especially the cabinets from store, no matter the local stores or the foreign stores, there are usually two packing methods to do with the products: flat-packed or assembled-packed. What are the difference between the flat pack cabinets with the assembled ones? Let’s know more about them.
Unlike the chairs or sofa, which are integrated furniture, cabinets are made up of panels. There are options that these panels are assembled or not. The features of these two are their advantage and disadvantage:
Flat pack cabinets: panels disassembled, smaller cartons, less packing material, less transit cost, assemble the cabinet at site by customers themselves or hiring installers.
Assembled packed cabinet: cabinets assembled, big packages, more packing material, more transit cost, easy fixing at site.
A person who focus more on price, he will compare the price differences between transit cost and labor cost, to decide whether to choose flat pack cabinet or assemble one.
A person who are keen on DIY, he/she may probably choose flat packing and enjoy themselves assembling cabinets.
A person who don’t want to spend too much time on furniture, he/she may choose assembled products.
A person or a company ordering cabinets for commercial projects, they probably choose flat pack cabinets, to save the total cost and warehouse keeping.
