Pine TV Units What style is that

I was chatting with my wife the other day and I was explaining the unusual number of searches for different types of Pine Furniture.

I've found that there seem to be a lot of searchs for Pine Category rather than say Oak Category. Maybe I should explain would I what I consider to be a Category first. This would cover the items of furniture, so Pine Bedside or Oak Dining table as opposed to the broader term of Oak Furniture or Pine Furniture.

I think she hit the nail on the head when she explained that a lot of consumers would have a very clear idea of what Pine Furniture is. On the other hand something like Oak Furniture is not quite so descriptive to the lay person.

Anyway with that in mind we thought we'd feature a classic Pine TV Cabinet from one of our sponsors Right Price Furniture. If you look at their Pine TV Cabinet Page you'll see that their styles are quite broad including Mexican & even some Dark Stained Pine Units.

The one we were attracted to was the Devonshire Pine Old Mill Entertainment Unit.


It comes out at £253 which isn't bad for something that is 100% solid Pine.

If you wanted to go for the other end of the scale you could look at this:-


I'm not really sure why they call it Pine as it looks very much like an MDF / veneer jobby. Anyway it's a £39 job from Agros. The quality is quite low but it's cheap!
