Affordable furniture in Singapore is not a myth – and it doesn’t have to mean cheap furniture of poor quality! It just means finding reasonably priced pieces that last the distance. Here are some great ideas for finding good quality, affordable furniture.
Scanteak for affordable furniture
Scanteak’s quality teak furniture offers bang for your buck with its timeless style and affordable prices. The company is able to offer durable and stylish teak pieces at lower prices by mass producing its furniture, ensuring the savings get passed on to consumers seeking affordable furniture shopping options.
For example, you can get your hands on the popular Island Daybed for $2499, the FLYTE Dining Table for $1699, or the LEIKA Bed Frame for $1799. Or touch up your space with the multi-purpose STAK Nesting Table for just $399 – it’s a versatile piece that can be used for display, as a side table or even as a coffee table.
All of Scanteak’s furniture is made of premium teak and offers style, durability and quality finishing. There’s a wide selection of sleek and stylish furniture, so you’ll definitely find a piece of affordable furniture for your home. You’ll also enjoy up to 15 percent off regular priced items (with a minimum spend). Remember to keep a lookout for ongoing promotions as well, so there are even more savings to be had.

Originals cool warehouse range
Originals is one of those furniture stores that bears in mind the different needs and budgets of customers and curates its range accordingly. On top of this, it extends a 10 percent VIP discount to any customer who spends $5,000 in single or multiple receipts.
You can get your hands on a gorgeous Copal fabric sofa for $1,280, solid oak Torsion dining table for $1,240, or solid oak Air bedframe for $2,025. There’s also the Rose outdoor lounge chair for $580. All these products are beautifully crafted and designed to last.
Originals’ Geri Murphy points out that affordable furniture shopping doesn’t mean skimping on quality and heading to cheap furniture stores. “A cheap item will only need replacing in a short space of time,” she says. “If you’re on a tight budget, buy fewer quality pieces rather than filling your space with cheaper products. Also, the accent items don’t need be expensive. We often help customers to make the most of their homes by working with the items they already have and treasure, adding either a statement piece or necessary items (beds, sofas, dining table, and chairs) that will stand the test of time.”

Just Anthony recycled and affordable furniture
Just Anthony is among the most affordable furniture stores in Singapore, and their regular sales make it even more so! Specialising in Chinese antique furniture, the store stocks an impressive selection of both reproduction and antique pieces. You’ll also find oriental-style accessories include lamps and lights, art, wall hangings, screens and room dividers. We always love popping in to see what’s new.
We also love the hand-painted small wooden round drums ($100 each), and the ever-popular ceramic drum stools ($100-$220). They come in a variety of colours and designs, and are ideal décor pieces or as a side table in your living or bedroom.
Owner Danielle recommends keeping an eye online for other offers. “We regularly mark down prices, particularly on items that have been in the showroom for a while. If you want to grab a bargain keep a lookout on our social media or sales page online.”
