Four loopholes in the wardrobe market

Nowadays, in the wardrobe market, there is a phenomenon of hanging sheep's heads and selling dog meat. Many merchants' products are obviously made in China, but they have become imported goods because of the formation of the word joint venture. Four major consumption loopholes.

Are the imported products designed with the "idea"? In a high-end wardrobe store that is known as a national chain, as soon as the editor went in, two salesmen dressed like stewardesses came around with a smile, and saw the editor facing the door. The Italian trademark is somewhat skeptical, and a salesperson said firmly: "Our wardrobe is designed with Italian ideas, European popular style, and many parts are imported." After further understanding, Xiaobian found that this wardrobe is actually A wardrobe manufacturer in Guangdong, the designers are also Chinese, so-called "imported parts" are actually produced by Guangdong joint ventures.

An unannounced interview with a small editor found that a brand wardrobe uses a "fireproof board" in the choice of door panel materials. After talking with the salesperson, I learned that the fireproof board itself is not completely fireproof, but it has better fire resistance, and it has a flame retardant effect to a certain extent, and the effect cannot last for a few minutes. Similarly, the "waterproof board" is only slightly moisture-proof, and the seller's "title" for the door panel material undoubtedly exaggerates the material function.

In terms of environmental indicators that consumers are concerned about, many wardrobe vendors will affix signs such as "E0" and "E1" in a prominent position. This is a sign that shows which level of national standards the product's formaldehyde emission reaches. According to industry insiders, China's current maximum limit for formaldehyde in furniture, flooring and other wood products is "E1", the national standard for wardrobe products is "E2", and some mid-to-high-end products are "E1". Because it does not contain green moisture-proofing agents and adhesives, it is easy to break due to moisture, and the "E0" grade board is not suitable for making wardrobes in a humid environment. Consumers should see this. In another brand store, the clerk strongly recommended a countertop imported from South Korea to the reporter, but after receiving the instructions, the editor found that the origin was Qingdao, and the clerk explained: "Our company's headquarters is in Qingdao, and the origin can only be marked. In Qingdao, where the head office is located, the countertop materials are indeed imported. "But when the editor" really "asked for the customs declaration, the clerk finally admitted that it was" the best countertop in China, which is basically comparable to the imported one. "

Almost all wardrobes advertise that they are using imported Hardware accessories such as "blum", but after talking to reporters and shop assistants, they learned that these hardware accessories have factories in China. A first-line brand and the manufacturer signed a use agreement, will use original imported accessories, most will still choose to replace domestically produced parts, and still use "imported hardware" to fool consumers. The two are almost identical in trademark and appearance, and they are installed inside the closet, making them less likely to be discovered by consumers. Therefore, when choosing a wardrobe, consumers cannot ignore the small hinges, and it is best to specify in detail when signing the contract.

The editor saw in the closet area of ​​a home building materials store in our city that the environmental protection test certificates provided by some closet merchants are mostly local plate test reports or environmental protection product recommendation certificates issued by an association or an organization. Overall, there are many certifications, but there is basically no unified certification by the Ministry of Authority. Industry insiders said that in the face of a large piece of bronze medal hanging on the wall, consumers would basically not go "more real."

According to people familiar with the matter, although closet companies have issued environmental protection cards one after another, not many have really been recognized by authoritative departments. There are many companies on the market that use "false environmental protection" to scam consumers. It is understood that the current environmental certification of wardrobe products on the market, only the "China Environmental Label Product Certification" certified by the Environmental Certification Center of the State Environmental Protection Administration, which is often referred to as the "ten-ring certification" is currently the more authoritative green logo . Products approved to use the mark not only require qualified quality, but also meet specific environmental protection requirements during production, use, and disposal. Compared with similar products, they have environmental advantages such as low toxicity, less harm, and resource conservation.

It is reported that first-line wardrobe brands often provide a full range of design and installation services. The merchant will send staff to measure the relevant dimensions, and ask a professional designer to design, which can usually be installed on site in about one month. After the wardrobe is installed, consumers should carry out corresponding inspections, such as: whether the surface of the wardrobe is scratched, bumped, cracked, etc., whether the overall installation position has changed, whether the wardrobe, countertop and wall cabinet are combined to tilt, panel , There is no gap at the connection of the cabinet, whether there is leakage at the drain pipe and the sink, etc. During the acceptance, the contract and the design drawings should be carefully checked to avoid unclear interpretation of the problem.

Summary: Products have imitated imported commodities, but they cannot be guaranteed in all aspects. The editor hopes that the relevant departments will also pay attention and come up with measures to solve these loopholes, giving netizens a reasonable explanation.
