This furniture is different from that.

In the above, can I substitute 'that one' for 'that'? If not, in what situation can 'that one' be used. I'd like you to give me an example sentence of 'that one'.

Thanks.

You could say, "This chair is different from that one," but with "furniture," which refers to all sorts of things that furnish a room or a house, and not just a single thing, you have to settle for "different from that." _________________ You live a new life for every new language you speak. -Czech proverb
