I've a influenced view when it comes to answering the question that is the title of this article, and I know it. At best, I can only hope to adequately explain my position that bare wood furniture is, dollar for dollar, the far higher value, but let's have a look at a few of the factors why and see if I can't convince you.

First, bare wood furniture is created with...well, wood. Not pressboard, not particle board, not sawdust and Elmer's trying to pass itself off as wood, but real, honest to goodness wood! Next time you are at your local chain shop, ask them to show you all their "solid wood" furniture and actually look it over. Normally, I am betting you'll find pressboard somewhere.

Second, bare wood furniture costs less. Sometimes a lot less. Yes, you've to "do something" to it (and we will get to that in a moment), but that is more of a chance gained than lost. Economic times being what they're, most everybody is looking to save money where they can, and this seems like an excellent tradeoff to me.

Third, bare wood furniture allows you to put your innovative stamp on it as you finish the piece, instead of getting anything "just like every 3rd house in the country." Express yourself! Be exclusive! Create something that's pure "you."

Fourth, bare wood furniture is more durable. That's since, at the end of the day, all that pressboard really is not extremely rigid. All wood furniture is as rough and long-lasting as it is beautiful.

Fifth, bare wood furniture gets better with age. With proper care at its finishing, you can make an heirloom piece which will possibly serve for many years. Majority of the store bought furniture simply becomes "used furniture" after 3-5 years. Huge difference.

I fell in love with unfinished furniture
with my first piece (a 6' tall, oak, double bookcase). As we gradually replace the furniture in our home, as much as possible, we are using bare wood furniture. It's less expensive, better quality, more tough, and totally exclusive.
