Some things should never be bought online. Certain items need to be held, touched or sat upon before being purchased and that’s just not possible when making an online purchase. Certainly the item can be returned, but save the hassle and never purchase these items from an online website.
Pillows, Chairs, Couches and Loveseats Should Never be Purchased Online
A bed pillow is in use for six to eight hours per night. Sleeping on the right pillow can have a huge impact on how the restful the sleep is and how the neck feels the following morning. Pillows should be purchase in-person so they can be felt and the pillow tags read to make certain the pillow is stuffed with what the purchaser desires. The same hold true for decorative throw pillows.
Any type of seat needs to fit the purchaser’s body and that can only be determined if it sat upon. A lot of time will potentially be spent sitting, relaxing and perhaps sleeping on this type of furniture, so the need for a comfortable body fit is essential. Sit in chairs, sit and lay down on couches and loveseats before purchasing so ensure comfort.
Take a Light Bulb When Shopping for a New Lamp
A lamp displayed on a website may have the perfect look and height, but how does it look when the light bulb is turned on? The only way to determine that before making the purchase is by taking a light bulb when shopping for a new lamp and actually trying the lamp out. Lamp lighting sets a room mood, what mood a lamp will project can’t be determined via an online website.
Flatware Should not be Purchased From a Website
Is chunky, heavy flatware desired or delicate, lightweight flatware? The only way to determine whether flatware is the desired weight and fits the hand comfortably is to pick it up. Flatware should not be purchased from an online website or the purchaser may end up with heavy weight soup spoons the size of serving spoons when just the opposite was desired.
