Pros and cons of metal furniture legs and feet
Pros of metal furniture feet
- Sleek, modern look: metal legs and feet give your furniture a custom, bespoke look, enhancing its aesthetic appeal.
- High-quality build: metal legs provide your beautiful furniture with the stability (supporting up to 1000 lbs) it needs to be durable, lasting several years. The most popular metal legs are made from stainless steel, coated steel, aluminium or iron.
- Flexibility: The great benefit of using metal legs in your next upholstery project is that any tabletop material (wood, granite, glass) can be mounted to metal legs.
- Sustainability: Metal furniture legs are sustainable as they are recyclable and are an eco-friendly alternative to plastic legs. Steel metal legs are particularly sustainable as steel is the most recyclable material in the world.
Cons of metal furniture feet
- Metal feet are heavy compared to plastic alternative and so it makes moving difficult, as well as having a greater risk of scratching the floor as you attempt to move your furniture. A way of getting around moving heavy metal legs is installing mini wheels which not only help make moving furniture so much easier, but they also protect the floor from damage. However, metal feet provide great support for furniture, making them ideal for stability.
- Metal legs might be more expensive than plastic legs due to the complex equipment and skilled craftsmanship required for their production. Also, metal is more expensive as it is more durable and stable than plastic and is not as cheaply made as metal legs, which can be made to have intricate patterns and shapes. So, the price tag coming from metal legs pays for itself. Also, our Heico metal legs can amount to as little as £3 a piece (but as cheap as £2.40 for 13 and more.)
- Metal legs require regular maintenance as they could rust over time. To avoid rust forming occasionally apply oil to the metal legs of your furniture. And for the metal legs that have started to rust make sure to use a stiff brush to scrub away the rust. If the rust is prevalent then soak a cloth in lemon juice and rub it over the rusty areas of your table legs. With regular maintenance comes a longer life of your metal legs, which makes them very sustainable pieces to invest in.
