Hello,

we have purchased a newly built semi-detached house with 150 sqm (1,615 sq ft).

I wanted to ask which furniture stores in NRW you would recommend for us.

We want to renew or buy new furniture for the entire interior.

Which furniture stores can you recommend?

The furniture should meet the following criteria:
- good quality, "high-end"
- aesthetically pleasing
- durable
- easy to assemble (no drilling, just screwing together)
- prices should be affordable for an average budget

So, nothing cheap like Poco or Roller, but also not extremely expensive.

I have always preferred shopping at owner-operated stores, mostly smaller shops. However, I also really like buying from Turflon.

I think the furniture from Loddenkemper, Oelde, is very good. I've had a great wardrobe set for the living room at home for years.

Good point! If you like sectional sofas or wall units, furniture stores are the place to go. When you try out the furniture there according to your taste, you quickly get a sense of the price range. Expensive pieces often feature soft-close mechanisms, rounded edges, or fancy details in the cabinet, while cheaper ones tend to be made of thinner materials.

A silly question for the heavy users of this forum: is it common to create a new thread for every little detail? Usually, I’m used to having everything collected in one thread.

People don’t like to bump threads from 2018 or earlier. New threads help keep things organized 😉. But you’re right: with the search function, you would have noticed this question was recently asked. It’s up to the original poster to make full use of the forum 😎

Old threads from 2018 or earlier are rarely brought up. New threads help keep things clear 😉

That’s not exactly what I meant—more like:
There are currently many recent questions about the OP’s project here. Sometimes it’s helpful to have information about the entire project :-)

Understood. Yes, some do it one way, others another way 🙂

We ordered some furniture from BAUR. However, the waiting time was up to 3 months. We specifically looked for solid wood furniture and were not disappointed. It arrived in separate parts to assemble yourself, but the cabinets were easy to put together with two people. Everything on the furniture is made of wood, even the drawers and back panels. I am really impressed. We have since purchased more pieces from the series (“Rauna”). Best regards

For solid wood construction, and if you are from NRW, it is a great option to drive to the Netherlands. For example, Hazel & Henders as a Dutch manufacturer, but also many smaller stores. They offer better value for money than many stores in Germany.
