Is alder wood good for furniture?
1 Answer

Yes, alder wood is good for furniture. Many people find its knotty appearance to be visually appealing, making it a popular pick for farmhouse and rustic-style pieces. Alder wood's hardness allows furniture produced from it to be sturdy and durable, and the material is economically priced compared to some other hardwoods.
