Three types of furniture into complaints focus
Like Ms. Sun, was "poisonous furniture" forced out of the House of members of the minority. Summary of many people's different experiences, journalists found that children's furniture such as desks, computer desk, security door furniture and beds become "toxic furniture" complaint three major focus.

Lasted for half a year back off "poisonous" furniture
"You see, I call this ' poorer '. "Yesterday, the reporter a knocking on the door of the citizen Mr. Hao, he hurriedly took journalists into the master bedroom and saw the inside of the floor covered with large and small burden, a piece I dream Division mattress, a TV and an air purifying gas is the room of the" family jewels "of all the wooden furniture is also not see. Next, Mr. Hao to reporters on his own experiences. Last September, Mr. Hao in Liaoning road furniture city purchased including big closet, bed, total 5 piece of pine furniture, just put in a few days in the main bedroom, Hau and his wife feels the gas inside the pungent smell your own breath is become angry. Mr. Hao theory to find businesses, businessmen, that although the House has a taste, but must be qualified, it is recommended that Mr. Hao and then hanging out for a period of time. Mr. Hao home barely so-so "believe that one or two months after the living and the wife a runny nose, flustered and other symptoms, physical health, and the two simply moved to relatives up, even the spring did not dare to stay at home.
In March of this year, Mr. Hao and his wife moved back to new homes, only to find that the smell of the room and not the gas. Two people had to find air detection
The company, the test results for formaldehyde exceeds the allowed figure 1.5 times, while another does not have the time lying before the furniture, the formaldehyde content as qualifying. In numerous consultations, Mr. Hao finally in May this year will push off the furniture and also forced to shoulder a $ 1500 "depreciation". "You said, the more free furniture that I can't live in a new House, businesses rather than compensate for my loss also asked me to depreciation expense, which is quite unfair. "Hau said.Second return can't buy furniture
A new home you can't have no furniture? purchase furniture, Mr. Hao had more carefully. Smell the gas smell, look at the product quality certification ... Before and after the toss over a month, Mr. Hao on selected Chongqing Road, a furniture shop of oak furniture, a value of $ 7500.

In addition to the aldehyde wars a dozen 10 months
"As the subject of formaldehyde, what can I do with the tips. "Mr. Hao have repeatedly expressed, for ordinary consumers, repeatedly and business consultations returns true is expended in trouble, so a large period of time, he tried to use autonomous way to eliminate the pollution. First of all, Mr. Hao from balcony to vacate an Air Purifier, and then pulls out from the trunk 3 bottles of formaldehyde scavengers, also with a big box in addition to the protective agent for formaldehyde. "This Purifier is I bought the first after the purchase of furniture, then spent $ 6000, expect it to absorb and clear formaldehyde, half a year later in the room the formaldehyde content still exceeded.

This box of formaldehyde protector is playing on the floor, some time ago, I bought and wife every day of the smudge floor, lest one more sources. "Mr. Hao reluctantly told reporters that it eliminates the aldehyde wars a dozen is 10 months, now, the whole family are totally exhausted," how to how to eliminate formaldehyde? we really can't say. ”
Market survey
Furniture specification into the industry's "legend"
For furniture products toxic substances exceeding the problem, States have an industry-standard, however, for various reasons, these little industry norms. This reporter has learned that as early as 2004, AQSIQ issued for the furniture manual "of mandatory standards. According to the requirements of the State, businesses in the sale of furniture, it must provide consumers with detailed instruction manual, but also in the use of instructions, clearly marked furniture processing production of environmental indicators, raw data, as well as furniture of poisonous substances, etc.
If the industry specification can achieve, then a toxic-free furniture leaflet sittings. However, the journalists visited the island city many furniture sales market, find the furniture manual "is used very optimistic, has almost become an industry legend" within ".
Businesses say "not exceeding"
Recently, this reporter went to the College on a home market, the sales area of a floor reporter walked into a floor boutique, a pungent smell with vision. Shop sales person said, "I'm here to sell is a wooden floor, all environmentally friendly products. "But when reporters asked why this floor has a pungent, which salespeople first claimed are wood flavor, then simply say:" you walk the floor shop here, which is not out of the floor, there is no formaldehyde is not exceeded. "The companies claimed that the formaldehyde is primarily for wood preservation, formaldehyde is very easy to volatilize, as long as the drying time will not be harmful to the human body.
Subsequently, the journalists visited the home marketplace of more than one floor shop, not a show about sell floor quality test reports or other relevant documents.
Inspection copy into market pass?
In a way huayang home stores, journalists are seen all furniture business "whereas". In the stores on the first floor of the eastern end of a well-known furniture brand boutiques, hung with obvious "environmental protection furniture" and other advertising signboards. Walking into the store, the reporter to businesses for related inspection report queries. Furniture dealers first took out the entire brochure to reporters show furniture factory environment and advanced level, in the press repeatedly urging, finally took out a copy, the above fuzzy illegible displays the furniture brands have adopted environmental testing. The provisions under AQSIQ, each set of furniture should be equipped with manual, it is a paper copy of the substitute?, the merchants all furniture have a manual, but when reporters see businesses provide instruction, he finds that it is free of any furniture poisonous substances.
Qingdao City Home Association test center professionals told reporters in his many years of industry experience, come to the people make furniture detection of very small, most are aware of the difficulties of detecting defenders "prohibitive & after
Rdquo; and let him feel helpless, "I almost never see people carrying furniture manual to detect, though is a compulsory requirement, but the fact is, it is difficult to find a paper statement. ”
