Table, chairs, sofa... where on earth to buy?

Who buys furniture for €15,000???

We do - at least approximately

- new sofa €3,500
- new dining table €2,000
- 8 new dining chairs €3,200
- new box spring bed €1,500
and lots of lamps, mirrors, etc.

I don't really find the €15,000 that surprising.
What have you spent on new furniture?

I don't find the 15,000€ so surprising now.
What have you spent on new furniture?

Certainly not these amounts, although you can't call our furniture cheap, standard, or simple

Dining table, date wood 500
Sofa Schillig 1800
Designer swivel chair each 90

You have to see where the price-performance ratio is right.
The chairs, for example, would have cost 300% more in the large furniture store...

And where does one buy chairs?

I ordered them, for example, from Kare Design, but from a Munich outlet.

Where _one_ buys them, however, I do not know

Brief regards

It is difficult to set a "standard" for furniture because tastes and preferences vary greatly. Although I don't think IKEA is bad, I personally don't like the style at all. And especially design is something for which people are willing to pay a lot of money without there being a real qualitative advantage.

For example, we liked a living / dining set that would have cost a total of €30,000. However, we were not willing to spend that much, so we looked for something cheaper that suits our taste. How low you can go then depends on taste, budget, and the willingness to make compromises.

In my experience, the large furniture stores also offer a range that is comparable to IKEA in price and quality. IMHO, IKEA is just a big furniture store as well. I mainly wanted to know where I can get comparable quality 300% cheaper than at the "furniture store". Outlet (i.e., directly from the manufacturer) is a good idea.
