Problem
Relocating or transitioning between homes often requires temporary furniture solutions, but purchasing furniture outright can be expensive and wasteful if the need is short-term. Traditional furniture rental options may lack flexibility, require long-term commitments, and may not offer the option to eventually own the furniture.
Solution
Makan Home provides a flexible furniture rental service that allows customers to furnish their homes with premium furniture and appliances without high upfront costs. Customers can select individual items or curated bundles and choose a subscription plan that fits their needs, with options for 3-month or 12-month terms. A key differentiator is the option to purchase the rented furniture at any time, with prior rental payments applied towards the purchase price, or to automatically own the furniture after 24 months of rental payments. Makan Home also offers fast, free delivery and assembly, simplifying the furnishing process.
Target Audience
Makan Home targets individuals and families in transition, expatriates, or anyone needing temporary or flexible furniture solutions, as well as businesses seeking furniture for offices or temporary accommodations.
