1. Bedside spotlight

If you want to install a bedside spotlight, you will not only have to spend the money for the spotlight, but also have to add money for water, electricity, and ceiling.



However, what we get is:When I lay down and opened my eyes, I was almost blinded by the light!


Lying down first person perspective

It is nonsense to say that the glare problem is caused by not adjusting the lighting in home decoration! The bedside spotlights in five-star hotels are still dazzling!



If you want to create an atmosphere of alternating light and dark without being glaring, the only way is:Choose hidden and anti-glare spotlights, and then install them at the end or in the middle of the bed. If you want to install a light at the head of the bed, install a light strip that allows light to be seen but not the lamp itself.

2. Rebounder

Rebounders are not cheaper than handles. If you want to install rebounders all over the house, a thousand dollars may not be enough to cover the cost.



However, what we get is:It is troublesome to open the cabinet door, as you need to press it once and then pull it open; its lifespan is short, and the rebounder breaks after a short period of use.

If you are unlucky enough to encounter that the rebounder customized for the whole house is not good enough or the installer does not install it properly, you may also encounter the problem of the cabinet door not being able to open or close.



If you don't like the handle, you can study it carefully.The handle-free design is easier to use, longer-lasting and more economical than a rebounder.Below are several mainstream handle-free design techniques. You can refer to them to see how to make them suitable for your home and then ask the cabinet designer.

3. KVK faucet

Imported from Japan, pure white, with a pull-out faucet and a shower head. I just bought it home and it looks like it was worth the extra 1,000 yuan!



However, as the usage time increased, a problem emerged: this KVK faucet was not as easy to clean as advertised.Color bleeding and sanitary dead corners will make it look dirty, which is really not a good look.Look at this faucet in my house, it doesn’t look like a thousand-dollar faucet at all!



On the other hand, the ordinary chrome faucet at home, which costs only 200 yuan, is often used and always new. If there is scale, just wipe it with citric acid and it will be bright enough to reflect light. So I now particularly recommend it.Chrome tap.

4. Living room sliding door

If it is a large apartment, a fourth-generation residence, with a large terrace, then a sliding door in the living room is an essential device.



But if it is a small apartment and the space at home is not abundant, then you spend money to install a sliding door to separate the living room and the balcony.The living room will inevitably become crowded and the lighting will be poor.



More suggestions,Give up the sliding door in the living room, connecting the living room with the balcony will give you a much better visual sense of extension and make your living more comfortable.A lot more open

5. L-shaped sofa

Same as sliding doors, you spend more money but get aSmall apartment crowded artifactOn weekdays, the utilization rate is low.Full of clothes!



ReconstructionStraight-row sofas make the living room look spacious



It is also enough. If you want to lie down occasionally, you can lie sideways, which is just as comfortable!Heavy lying users,It is more recommended to directlyGet a mattress for the living room.More comfortable!



6. Dressing table

Merchants market it as: hostess furniture!



But many housewives found out after moving in that this thing is really not easy to use!The mirror is far away and makeup cannot be seen clearly; Bedroom placement, destinedThe movement line is unreasonable, I have to run back and forth to the bathroom several times to put on makeup... and eventually it became a makeup storage table!



Instead of this, it is better to buy one early.Chest of drawers, large storage capacity and easy to take!



Of course, the most reasonable dressing table solution is: Place the dressing table and washbasin side by side in the dry area of ​​the bathroom.Then with matching, light source, detail mirror, etc., it can provide convenience to the hostess to the greatest extent.

7. Tatami

Tatami,For the North, it is nothing more than itsStorage space seems uselessIt is inconvenient to take and can only hold some miscellaneous items that have not been used for 800 years.


Tatami mats are moldy due to water accumulation

CanFor the SouthEspecially in the humid Guangdong, tatami is simplyFungus gathering place, it will get moldy and leak water at any time.



So, if you want to customize a small house, you can, but you should not use the tatami part.Slatted bedreplace.

8. Customized desks for the whole house

The whole house customization goes so far that even the desk is not spared!



But we, as homeowners, must be sober:The performance of the board as a desktop is not enoughAfter using it for a while, you will find that the tabletop is full of scratches! It is not like solid wood, which can be repaired.



so,If you can't do it, give up the board desk immediately.If you have done it, then put a table mat on it to protect it., this is another expense, but you have to spend it!

9. With drying rack

All clothes drying racksThe drying function is rubbish!Yes! That's all!



You paid extra for the drying function, which consumes a huge amount of electricity. When you turn it on, you will find:It's almost impossible to dry clothes with this thingAfter 4 or 5 hours of driving, only the shoulders of the clothes were dry!



Suggestion: If you are in the south and need to dry, it is better to spend several thousand yuan and buy aDryer

10. Projection screen

No matter how good the sellers say it is, no matter how good the performance is, no matter how expensive the projector is, the projector still needs to draw the curtains.Nothing to post during the day!



itThe only advantage is the size, if you can give up watching TV during the day for the sake of big and immersive viewing, then it is indeed a good choice.



Otherwise, just go honestlyChoose TVAbout 5000,Currently, you can buy an 85-inch TV, which is large enough for an average family.The picture effect is better than the 500,000 projection!!!

11. Rectangular floor drain

If you think the rectangular floor drain is beautiful, then the rectangular floor drain has the following advantages:pretty

But who would appreciate a floor drain in daily life?



So, for most people,This budget increase is meaningless.As for the saying that rectangular floor drains are more effective, that's all nonsense! I've never heard of a family having problems with drainage because of a square floor drain. I've often heard of a family having problems with drainage because of a square floor drain.Rectangular floor drain, very disgusting when cleaning



So, don't bother with floor drains when decorating. Just buy an ordinary square one for around ten bucks.The gravity-covered floor drain is already very useful.

12. Carpet

I like carpets! I also think carpets are a good product to enhance the layout and tone of the home!

But that was before I had a carpet.Now, when I think of carpets, there is only one thing in my mind: when will the community clean the carpets? I must not miss it!



I was forced from a free and easy-going person to become a vagrant in the community who is always on the move!

indeed,Carpets are so hard to clean! I think I will throw them out one day!

13. Glass coffee table

One of the furniture with the highest regret rate!

In addition to the pain points of the glass coffee table:Put the cup down and it makes a loud noise! ​​It can't be wiped clean, there will always be water stains!I think there is another reason, that is, everyone isGet rid of the living room and coffee table style!



Use insteadSmaller side table, just as convenient, and can also free up space in the living room for activities. It is indeed more comfortable than putting a big coffee table in the living room!



14. Folding dining table

According to my experience: Folding dining table, because every time you fold or unfold it, you have to clean it up, so99% of the time, it's the same state, no need to fold or stretch!



From what I have seen: folding dining table,More than 80% of folding hardware will break after a few years.

As far as I know: the current discountStacked rock dining tables are almost 100% fake rock, made directly of tiles, and is prone to cracking.



Therefore, I will never buy a folding dining table in my life, even if I die!

What if there are too many people at home and the table can't accommodate them?Squeeze, among close friends and relatives, rubbing shoulders with each other is a different kind of fun,A guest with whom I have a weak relationship,I usually don't let them come to my house, and I entertain them outside.The restaurant has a table that can seat 50 people!!!

15. Complex Chandelier

I love chandeliers, and I think choosing a good chandelier is crucial to improving the appearance of your home!



But I also hate chandeliers because they are not well chosen, especially thoseComplex and expensive, they are particularly prone to dust accumulation, difficult to wipe, and even collect dead insects.

Therefore, the chandelier should be as simple as possible.Good rubAlso important!

16. Open bookcase

Just like a chandelier, it makes people love and hate it. Love doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Books can tempt people whether you read them or not!



Hate, mainlyCleanliness issue, dust accumulates too easily.



To make a bookcase, it is more recommendedMake doors or curtainsForget about the glass door, it’s hard to wipe and always leaves water stains.

17. Children's paint

This is totallyIQ tax to cheat parents, advertised as 0 formaldehyde, scrub-resistant... upon closer inspection, it only meets the national standard for qualified products.

To seeThe performance of the paint is good or bad, whether it is environmentally friendly or notDon’t pay attention to whether it is called children’s paint, butPay attention to clear testing standardsTwo things:



First,Look at the level specified by the national standard, mainly related to the performance of the paint: superior products > first-class products > qualified products;



Second,Look at environmental certification,The order of strictness is: Green Guard ≥ France A+ > Green Product Certification > Ten-Ring Mark > National Standard.

The rest, those exaggerated propaganda, the chairman drinking paint, latex paint 0 formaldehyde, and can remove formaldehyde... are all bullshit!!!

18. Rock slab integrated basin

More expensive than ceramic basins, but much more difficult to use than ceramic basins!

Because although it is called an integrated basin, it is actuallyThe spliced ​​basins have many sanitary dead corners in the right-angle gaps, which are extremely difficult to clean.



In the later stages of use, you will not be able to feel the beauty of the stone slab at all, but only feel the trouble of sanitary dead corners.

Based on all the basins I have used,Ceramic toilet basin, stainless steel sink or YYDS, it is both economical and practical.

19. Under-sink dishwasher

This is what it means.The money was spent, but not spent properly, and it was wasted.



Mainly because of the sink dishwasherThe capacity is too small to wash the potThis leads to the embarrassing situation that people still need to wash clothes by hand even though they have used a dishwasher.

So, if you decide to use a dishwasher, buy a large one.Built-in 13-set large-capacity dishwasher, sink dishwashers and tabletop dishwashers all have the same problem: the capacity is too small!

20. Linear Light

There are common pain points with the bedside spotlights we talked about at the beginning——Glare!

But what’s even more useless than it is that this thing is not like a spotlight, which can at least illuminate what you want to illuminate. It is a floodlight, and the results of most home use are:The lights are bright, but the space is still dark!



For this, you have to spend more money to bury the wires and buy light troughs... It's really not worth it.

In fact, if you want decorative lights, a better choice is to directlyThere are so many beautiful and classic lamps to buy.You can choose lamps that can be regarded as works of art, which are definitely enough for home decoration!

Linear lights, this kind of thing, let it always be commercial use!

The above 20 items are also available to anyone who wants to use them. Anyway, we rational Sumitomos don’t use them!
