5 Types of Essential Furniture for Your home

Buying pieces of furniture comes at a cost especially if you are seeking high quality ones which will last longer. There are certain types of furniture that every home should definitely have. They are necessary because they do not only give your home a type of look but also serve very important purposes in the home. Although the modern décor style is to be as minimal as possible, Jumia House has compiled five furniture types which are very essential for every home:

  1. Extra Chairs – Every home should have extra chairs because you cannot be too certain when you will receive more visitors. The extra chairs for the home could be foldable ones so that you can pack them away when they are not in use. Chairs that can be stacked on each other can also save you space.
  1. Coffee Table – Coffee tables are not decorative pieces; they are essentials that connect the couches in the living room. They also serve as surfaces for the display of items such as flower vases, magazines, and books among others. Coffee tables do not only make the living room complete but visitors can sit on them when the need arises.
  1. Pouf – The pouf is one kind of furniture which is gradually catching on in most homes. They do not only serve as decorative pieces but also as functional purposes when there are extra visitors in your home. Children fancy this piece of furniture because of their fancy colors.
  1. The Nightstand – The bedroom’s nightstand is one important piece of furniture for other items like the lamp, alarm clock and books that you may want to read in the night.
  1. A Bookshelf – Every home should have a bookshelf. Bookshelves help keep your home in order. They prevent chaos in the home. They can equally serve as decorative pieces when the books kept on the shelves are properly arranged according to colors and size.
