This section is important if you intend to go to
buy a new empty apartment, if you intend to go with other options like
furnished suites, please skip this part.
Used items:
Finding used items in good condition may be somewhat time consuming, but
the fact that Saudi Arabia has lots of expatriates that’s why you will find
lots of used items all the time. The best website for this purpose will be expatriates.
Brand new:
For a newly married couple; you can have a home furnished new with
around 9K – 20K SAR, following is a listing of sample items and their prices
with some advice:

Advice
|
Refrigerator
|
18ft = 2300 – 3000 SAR
21ft = 3500 – 4200 SAR
|
One with 14 ft is enough to hold food for 2 – 3 persons for about 6 days,
if your family is bigger begin considering 18ft+. The problem comes in summer
as you will find that you will put everything in refrigerator including
vegetables, fruits, bread, and also medicine.
|
Washer with front loading door
|
7kg = 1800 – 3000 SAR
|
There are three main categories in electrical washer:
1.
Ordinary: For ordinary
wash, I think no wife will accept this type.
2.
Automatic with front
loading (as automatic in Egypt): recommended.
3.
Automatic with upper
loading (It was my first time to see this type of washer, it is not found in
Egypt): The only problem in this type is that it doesn’t have heater in it,
which is major concern, as you will never clean white clothes without heater.
|
Gas stove / cooker
|
4GB = 1000 - 1800 SAR
5GB = 2500 – 3300 SAR
|
With 4 GB will be enough, but take care of two things:
1.
Space between the 4 GB so
you can cook freely.
2.
The oven volume.
These are the most important thing you should look before taking
decision, otherwise buy a bigger one.
|
Oven electric toaster
|
250 – 400 SAR
|
You will find lots of them but take care of the following:
1.
Have both upper and lower
heater.
2.
Have timer.
3.
Have temperature control.
|
LCD Full HD 1080
|
40 inches = 2000 – 2800 SAR
|
Best brands are Sony, Samsung, LG.
|
Best stores for electrical equipment in KSA are Extra, and Electro. Sometimes, you will find in
big markets like Hyper Panda, & Carrefour offers which are considered
great opportunities.
Saudi made furniture is located in several places usually in local
markets like Al Uwais
(Only new), Bin Kasem (New & used).
Modern furniture is located in HomeCentre,
IKEA, Dimos. Better to wait
for sale for these stores, usually they have 30% – 70% off.
