What is Flat Pack Furniture?

[AmieCousins]

Flat pack furniture is furniture that is fabricated in flat parts and designed to be quickly and easily assembled. It is also sometimes called ready-to-assemble furniture or knock-down furniture. The primary advantage to this is that, because it is packed flat, it is extremely space efficient, saving significant amounts of money for the manufacturer by reducing shipping and storage costs. Consumers in turn benefit from this because the company can pass the savings down with less expensive prices.

The quality of flat pack furniture can vary widely. Some companies use high quality materials, creating furniture which is meant to last and be attractive. Others use cheaper materials, catering to a demand for low-cost furnishings which may be serviceable without looking nice. The use of veneers, particleboard, and plastic fittings is common in cheaper furniture, while more high end furniture uses higher quality woods and may even be designed to be environmentally friendly.

Designers of flat pack furniture typically create furnishings that are very easy to mass produce. Most companies also pre-drill holes and do other preparation work so that consumers can fit the pieces of the furniture together with minimal work.

Depending on the construction techniques used, flat pack furniture may or may not break back down easily once it has been assembled. In some cases, the furniture is designed to be taken apart again in the event of a move, while in others, more solid connections are used to ensure that the furniture does not break, and these connections make it impossible to take the furniture apart again.
