Have you ever been searching for furniture and you find that one piece that is drop dead gorgeous and you have to have it? Then you check the price and your stomach drops because it is way more than you expected and you leave disappointed? I think that has all happened to us before, and if not with furniture then definitely with clothes or shoes. Right ladies?
The good news is oftentimes with a little searching, you can find similar items for much cheaper if you’re willing to put in a little effort and time searching for alternatives. Below I have gathered a few furniture dupes to show what I am talking about.
What is a Dupe?
If you are wondering what we mean by the word “dupe,” here is a quick explanation. A dupe is a product that is inspired by an original version. So in furniture or home decor, this means a piece of furniture that looks similar, however not identical, to another piece of furniture. Oftentimes, the dupe is a cheaper option. For example, a couch you may have found on Wayfair or Overstock.com that looks very similar to that couch at Restoration Hardware for a cheaper price. It is important to point out that you should do your research on furniture dupes to ensure they maintain good quality at a cheaper price point.
