There are literally hundreds of brands of office furniture out there, but you may have heard a handful of them over and over. Some are well known in other arenas, such as 3M and La-Z-Boy, while others have mad a name for themselves in the office field specifically, such as Herman Miller. Knowing the various brands can be a big help when shopping for second hand office furniture. Looking out for these brands can guarantee quality in your purchase, and that’s half the battle.
The aforementioned Herman Miller is always a safe bet to outfit an office, and the Aeron line in particular is well loved. Other such “safe” brands include Steelcase, the Hon Company, Bauhaus Furniture, the Haworth Company, and Global Furniture. Choosing any of these names is an easy way to ensure that your furniture has been designed and manufactured with a professionalism and attention to quality that will meet or exceed any standards you might have. Obviously condition can vary, and not every piece released by a company is their best effort. But since these companies have hard won reputations at stake, it’s safe to say that they are not likely to release an inadequate line of chairs or desks.
In addition to these brands, there are lines which fall into the “luxury” office furniture category. This is where you can save some real money buying second hand. Topstar, made by the Wagner Company from Germany, is a superb brand, specializing in making ergonomically advanced office chairs which also adhere to a superb aesthetic sense. It’s hard to go wrong with a Topstar chair.
Liberty Furniture is another luxury manufacturer, in this case specializing in wood and wood veneer products. Their designs are known as being amongst the industry’s most original, and they are said to have a very low rate of return from their customers, indicating a high level of satisfaction.
Finally, the Mayline Group is one you might wish to look at for luxury office furniture. This company has been around since World War II, but has become known in recent years as a leader in ergonomics. The Mayline VariTask desk is an innovative ergonomic product that adjusts to the user’s height and working mode by adjusting its height.
These and other manufacturers can be found for a fraction of retail cost by clicking these links:
