gakuseisean 4 Report post Posted January 16, 2012 I agree that their furniture are pricey, but one factor behind the cost is the team of designers behind BoConcept that churn out original products. Essentially, you're paying (at least in part) for originality as opposed to cheaper furniture, which more often than not does not require significant R&D as they copy designs. Operating swanky showrooms also adds to the cost - all of which combine to give you a designer (though made in China) furniture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vhardono 1 Report post Posted January 16, 2012 Thinking to buy sofa either from BoConcept or AIR.In terms of design and price both are quite similar, so anyone can comment which one got better quality? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gakuseisean 4 Report post Posted January 17, 2012 Thinking to buy sofa either from BoConcept or AIR.In terms of design and price both are quite similar, so anyone can comment which one got better quality?Actually, BoConcept has a wider range of designs that have a slight Scandinavian aesthetic, while the whole range of products sold by Air Division is either experimental modern or rustic (Plank Living). However, as mentioned above, BoConcept products are made in China. As for AIR, I believe that they are made in the region (i.e. Malaysia or Indonesia).I guess you could support local companies and local designers by purchasing from Air, however do try out the products from both and see the quality first hand before deciding.

bennzi 0 Report post Posted January 25, 2012 My experiences,Im happy and satisfied with Bo Concept sofa. Got it at a dicount. The fabrics determine the final pricing.yes it is made in china. but designed in Europe. But the made is of good quality, QC very important. I got my 4 dining chair from them. 1 of it had a slight dent when its delivered. They took back and exchange. No question asked.Try these with some of our local furniture store....exchanging stuff may not be easy.Some of Air stuff are also made in china. It really depends on what you choose. Foundry, Grafunkt...their stuff are Asean made...final pricing..really need to compare and do your homework Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vhardono 1 Report post Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) Latest update of my order from BoConcept.Today I received a call from them confirming the delivery date.Very disappointed with the way he called and handled the situation.On the receipt and as agreed earlier when paying for the sofa, it is stated that the estimated delivery date will be on Saturday 21-Apr, but now he said that the slot are fully booked.He blamed me never pick up his call earlier on and also explaining that the delivery slot already fully booked few weeks ago (even though I ordered the sofa few months ago, not a few weeks ago. And if I picked up his call earlier, still what the use because the all the slots already taken)I don't want to exagerate the situation and now have to take leave on the weekday just to receive the sofa.Didn't know that the service quality and delivery schedule of expensive product also can be disappointed.Cross fingers that the sofa quality will exceed my expectation Edited April 12, 2012 by vhardono Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
