When shopping for new
bedroom furniture, homeowners often face the daunting choice of buying a complete bedroom set or selecting individual pieces instead. Luckily, there are benefits to both options, and deciding what to buy can be as simple as figuring out what your priorities are when it comes to convenience, style and price.
Buying Bedroom Sets
Convenience is a huge reason to buy bedroom furniture as a complete set. Sets generally contain all the basics—a bed, chests of drawers, mirrors, nightstands and the like. When bought together, the pieces in a bedroom set are already pre-matched to one another, making design considerations much simpler.
As is usually the case when buying things together, sets can also offer greater savings than buying pieces individually. The whole bedroom can be ready to go with just one easy purchase.
Buying Individual Pieces
Buying individual bedroom furniture pieces is the way to go for homeowners who are a little more particular about style and space. While sets offer the convenience of being pre-coordinated, buying individual pieces allows for more flexibility when it comes to the overall room design and the selection of matching décor.
Buying individually can also be a money-saver. Sets are great if each included piece has a place and function in the bedroom, but buying individually means only getting the pieces that you want and have the space for.
A great way to get the best of both options is to buy a small set—perhaps only two to four pieces—and then add on individual items as desired. This would provide much of the convenience and savings of buying a complete set, plus the ability to add personal flair and functionality with individual pieces.
