5. Is it healthy? If you are trying to keep your home as toxin free as possible, it is important to ask about what is in the product and whether it is harmful. Just because something is labeled "fair trade," for instance, does not necessarily mean it is healthy, so look for specific information about ingredients and finishes before making a purchase. The cabinets in the (truly ecofriendly) home shown here are formaldehyde free.
