What is laminate furniture?

Laminates are applied wood additives to the surface of furniture. These applications can be made using synthetic materials or very thinly sliced wood strips. These applications are usually held in place using a bonding agent or synthetic glue. Historically laminate furniture has been associated with low-end furniture due to their relatively low cost as compared to their real wood counterparts and their limited lifespan. Although many manufacturers still use substandard laminates, the furniture industry has seen vast improvements in the quality of laminates in the last 10 years. There really is no substitute for real wood, but depending on your needs, laminate furniture does have its place.
