How to Buy Furniture Online in Nigeria Without Regret

Furniture is expensive — measure twice, buy once. Here's the safe way.

1. Measure Your Space First

Before you even browse, note:

  • Width, depth, and height of the space
  • Doorway and hallway width (for delivery)
  • Ceiling height (for tall wardrobes)
  • Existing colour palette

2. Ask About Materials

3. Check Delivery Before You Pay

  • Does the seller deliver to your state?
  • What's the delivery fee?
  • What happens if the item arrives damaged?

4. Warranty and Returns

Ask for a written warranty — at least 30 days for manufacturing defects.

5. Pay on Delivery or Inspection

Never pay full advance. If the seller requires a deposit, negotiate 30% max.
