flat packs
Boxed furniture pieces
Flat packs are furniture or other items sold unassembled in compact, flat packaging, designed for customers to put together at home.
The format reduces shipping costs and storage space, making products cheaper, though assembly can range from simple to frustrating.
IKEA popularized the concept, and flat-pack has become nearly synonymous with affordable, self-assembly furniture.
We spent the whole afternoon building flat-pack bookshelves.
