Does any one have any items of next furniture or in fact any 'veneer' furniture if so how has it kept i.e has it lifted or peeled at the edges?
Just trying to decide whether to get say solid wood furniture or if veneer cared for does last?

not next, but i've got venereed stuff from argos and the range (arguably lower class than next) and they've been fine for 2 years so far.
i think my mums units (oak veneer) were from next and shes had them years with no problems.
it usually peels if it gets wet iirc.

The next veneered stuff is probably the same price as real stuff from a furniture shop.

It will be veneered and it's over priced. Can tell with the weight of the items
Better off buying proper oak furniture from outlets

Ah it's all veneered there, but tbf if it's good quality and last's i don't mind paying the extra premium regardless of the brand I love this particular style
If i could find it in solid wood else were I'd have it
