Batteries

The manufacturer states that the products are alkaline: this usually means that the batteries last 3-5 times longer than saline batteries. The cost of 10 pieces is 88 rubles, which is incredibly cheap. Unfortunately, the service life of the batteries leaves much to be desired: in the TV remote control, they work for about a week.

If you are thinking about ecology, we recommend buying higher quality batteries so as not to throw them away so often. Ideally, it is worth replacing the “consumables” with batteries that can be charged repeatedly.

Stool

It is better to avoid the surprisingly affordable stool presented in the “Svetofor” store. The attractive price of 213 rubles should confuse you: a good product cannot be so cheap.

According to reviews from those who nevertheless purchased the item, the bent legs are made of low-quality metal, the seat is made of MDF and covered with thin artificial leather using a furniture stapler.

Buyers complain that the stool rocks, breaks, and the legs move apart.

Viscose napkin

Napkins are an indispensable thing for cleaning. But if you come across this package on the store shelves, refrain from buying it. A set of viscose napkins will serve its purpose very quickly: users write that the products quickly lose their shape, become thin and tear. It becomes unpleasant to use them.

Instead of economical viscose napkins, we recommend choosing microfiber. The material effectively washes away dirt, lasts a long time and is machine washable.

Iron

People who bought this device for 425 rubles were disappointed in it after the first ironing. The iron is not able to remove wrinkles from clothes even with a steamer. Users are also unhappy with the water flowing out of it, which is often rusty and spoils the laundry.

The device is considered not only useless, but also harmful. The sole, made of insufficiently high-quality material, becomes covered with a brown coating over time.

Furniture made of laminated chipboard and wood

“Svetofore” amazes with the low prices for the furniture that is presented in the store’s assortment. But this is precisely what should be alarming: products with a long service life cost much more.

Buyers share that the metal supports of the bench and chairs are too shaky, and the wood “leads”. Users are also not satisfied with the quality of kitchen tables: the bolts on the legs fly out, and the tabletop swells when exposed to moisture.

If you buy such furniture, handle it carefully, otherwise the products will quickly lose their original appearance.

LED lamps

In an effort to save on goods and electricity bills, some users are actively buy cheap LED bulbs at Svetofor and are disappointed. People complain that the bulbs flicker, burn out quickly, and don’t shine brightly enough. Some products emit warm light despite the stated cold light.

We recommend that you take a responsible approach to buying bulbs and choose trusted manufacturers.

Bed Linen

If you see inexpensive bed linen sets at Svetofor, don’t rush to buy them: study the composition carefully. Feel free to leave polyester products on your shelves: artificial fabric does not allow the skin to breathe, quickly tears after the first wash, and loses color.

Avoid suspiciously cheap bed linen: the textiles you use during sleep should be as comfortable as possible. Give preference to cotton or calico.

You can find many useful things at low prices in “Svetofor”, but you should not buy some products: the desire to save money can lead to the opposite result. To avoid this, carefully read the information on the packaging and study reviews online.
