FrankBlunt Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Can't remember the name of the place but just continue on the by-pass road past Index and immediately before the Esso gas station is a good cheap furniture place. Doesn't look much when you pull in the small forecourt but the building extends way back and they have a huge amount of stuff crammed in there.

madmitch Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 SB Furniture is a class or two above the others mentioned in the thread and most stuff is very expensive but they often have very good offers on specific items. Bird is OK, I've never bought anything from Jasmine and I'd say beware of Sentral Furniture; everything I have bought in there has fallen apart!

MisterMan Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 (edited) what about inexpensive bamboo type things. I am not talking about island furn. calibre.. less but still natural. I hate particle board. I need a full length mirror and stand, bed frame Edited November 20, 2010 by MisterMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaengJonesie Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 This place is in Kamala and has some very good furniture. http://www.beautifulworldthailand.com/ Nothing to do with me, but yes the guy is a friend. If you're around that way check out the showroom. This is quality furniture though, not the likes you'll find in Index etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lannatyne Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Look in the newspaper and TV classifieds. Plenty of people moving on and getting rid of, sometimes pretty good, second hand stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissChris Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Thanks for the advice about 'Bird @ home', FrankBlunt. We had been looking for a Chinese style folding screen for a visitor to have a private nook. They don't deliver, but gave us plastic string to tie it into the boot. I agree that there's lots to choose from. Kitchen cupboards made of solid timber, although I love the aluminium and glass ones for practicality. Also left a deposit on a safe. 2950 baht, reduced from 6600 (around 5000 in some shops). Will definitely go there again. Good service. They even knew 'deposit'.

Could you give me good directions to this Bird@home place. Cheers I am getting most things from Index because the quality is very good but I would like to find a cheaper bed/wardrobe and dressing table.

Check the link (contact us) as I've not been to this showroom. Actually I don't think it's in Kamala as such but near. Phuket geography is not my strong point!
