How do you say MUEBLES in English?

Well, there is not a word to express exactly what we mean in Spanish when we say MUEBLES. There is one that comes quite close though, and that is FURNITURE.
Really FURNITURE is JUEGO DE MUEBLES since it rarely refers to only one piece.
It is an Uncountable noun and as such is always used in singular though its translation will make it a plural:
The furniture in this room seems to be of great quality --> Los muebles de esta habitación parecen ser de gran calidad.
If you want to say in English things such as "Muebles de Sala" or Muebles de Oficina" you have to use the term FURNITURE, like this:
Muebles de Sala --> Living Room Furniture
Muebles de Oficina --> Office furniture
Muebles para un Salón de Clases --> Classroom furniture.
By the way, AMOBLAR is to FURNISH. Apartments in big cities are sold or rented FURNISHED  or UNFURNISHED (con o sin muebles). Though it is more expensive renting a furnished is more practical especially in the long run.
