5 Quick Tips for Buying Furniture in Kigali<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. If you want to save money, our Facebook community<\/a> is a great place to get secondhand furniture, electronics, and much more. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Check out our Kigali Business Directory<\/a> for vetted, high-quality furniture shops and carpenters. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. If you\u2019re buying secondhand furniture online, beware of price gouging. Items listed as \u2018secondhand\u2019 are often priced higher than new products. It\u2019s a common scam targeting new arrivals in Kigali. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. When buying custom-made furniture, make your specifications clear, and pay in installments, checking on the work to confirm they are following your specifications to avoid disappointments. Get recommendations from previous, happy customers. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Try out the piece of furniture, especially if it\u2019s a bed or seat. Feel if it creaks, feels weak or has another problem before purchasing it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. If you\u2019d rather shop from home, check out our guide online shopping in Rwanda. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
