Yes, Wayfair is legit. Wayfair products are typically lower cost than most options available and a great way to add style to your home if you are on a budget. Wayfair also has higher price points that offer a higher quality in a very similar fashion to the range of products offered by IKEA.
Wayfair compares to IKEA in terms of quality
Wayfair and IKEA both offer some of the most reasonable prices for furniture. Both have models that are great on price and have clean, modern style. The other side of this is that Wayfair and IKEA are both lighter on material and so may not be the sturdiest pieces.
Wayfair is great furniture for adding modern style
Wayfair stays current with trending styles. There is a steady supply of modern styles for vanities, beds, couches or barn style doors that can be used to refresh a space. This is ideal for an older home that needs a refresh.
Wayfair is perfect for outfitting an Airbnb
My wife and I outfitted a two-bedroom Airbnb with bed frames, dining table and end tables from Wayfair. All the furniture was good quality and helped us set a modern tone for the space. The biggest thing was that it kept us under budget for setting up the space.
What are the best items to buy from Wayfair
Wayfair has tons of options, but they definitely have a few items that they do the best. If you stick to those items, then you should find that Wayfair is good quality for the price.
Wayfair Vanities offer great selection and style.
After buying an older home in Spokane, Washington, my wife and I set out to remodel the bathrooms. We paid for new tile to be installed and then we bought and installed Wayfair vanities ourselves. This was a great way to keep our budget intact and refresh the style of both spaces.

Wayfair Barn Doors offer the best selection anywhere
For our upstairs bedrooms where space was tight, we ordered two barndoors from Wayfair. Wayfair has by far the best selection for barndoors and are much less expensive than other options. We installed one more traditional door in our daughter’s room and this glass door on my wife’s closet. It gave a modern upgrade to both rooms and removed swinging doors where there is now space.
Why is Wayfair so Cheap?
It’s the volume. Wayfair is a massive supplier and has a big production capacity. Also, similar to IKEA, they do scale the level of quality based on price. That is great if you are on a budget. Wayfair is often the best option and the quality is always good for the price from my experience.
Is it safe to purchase on Wayfair?
Absolutely, Wayfair is a legit, major supplier and so it is safe to purchase from them and they typically deliver within a couple of weeks.
Is it a good idea to buy Wayfair items on Facebook Marketplace?
Similar to IKEA, be wary of Wayfair items on Facebook Marketplace since there could be wear and tear that these types of furniture don’t handle as well. Be sure to inspect the item thoroughly to make sure there is no damage since the lighter construction from these companies does limit how sturdy their products are. Just be careful out there since Facebook Marketplace is always a risk and so you need to make sure you inspect well. Used Wayfair items can be great if maintained well.
Conclusion
Wayfair is legit and a great way to get some modern style into an older home on a budget. If you are looking to find a deal on an older home that needs a little work, then Wayfair can be perfect to keep you on budget during remodeling.
