Buying factors to consider
How will you use your home office furniture?
Before you can choose furniture that ticks all boxes you need to consider how you’ll use it. Consider the location and the type of tasks that will be completed using the furniture. When you can visualise the furniture in action making the right buying choice becomes straight forward. Remember you can upgrade your furniture in the future when your requirements develop.
Size
Get the tape measure out and consider how much space you have to work with in your room. Home office furniture is typically smaller if you are working out of a small room. Opting for smaller furniture might be the better choice to avoid a cramped feeling in a small space.
The size of our furniture is shared in the product description. Compare the amount of space you have with the product dimensions. Leave extra room for error so you’re not stuck with furniture that’s too big. For example, office chairs can take up more room than you think – especially if you use the wheel base to maneuver around the room.
Packages
Consider buying a combination of computer desk and table in one purchase as a package. The advantage of home office furniture packages is that you receive a table and chair that are a good match ergonomically. Therefore, you avoid the headache of trying to figure out if the table and chair allow you to work with an ergonomically correct seating position.
Furthermore, when buying packages you can get a better deal compared with buying the furniture individually. Saving money allows you to spend more on other home office equipment.
Ergonomics
Furniture that’s designed ergonomically to avoid injury is one of the most important buying considerations, after all, you’re probably going to be sitting for longer periods of time. Here are a few tips to buy ergonomically designed furniture:
• Desk: the desk must be at the right height so you don’t have to slouch and can place your hands comfortably on the desk. Also, desks that come with cupboards or other features helps avoid the strain of getting up from the table.
• Chair: the chair must have excellent adjustability so you can alter the height, armrest and back rest to suit your body. You may need to play around with the office chair before you get the most comfortable sitting positon. Also, lumbar support is essential to ensure your back does not succumb to long-term injury.
Want to try something new? Consider choosing a height adjustable stand that acts as your desk. Therefore, you can stand up while working, which might be the change you’re looking for from sitting all day long.
Build quality
Buy home office furniture that will stand the test of time. You need to carefully inspect the material and how it’s joined together. The mixture of commercial quality melamine products and metal in the majority of our furniture offerings is a great combination.
Not confident in your ability to assess build quality? Then you should buy with a lengthy warranty deal that covers manufacturer faults and defects. This should give you the peace of mind that you will get a refund or replacement should the furniture turn out to have poor build quality.
Choosing the right whiteboard
Whiteboards are great for organising a project and creating goals for the day, week or month. Here are a few whiteboard buying tips:
• Size: how much size do you need to write down your ideas? More space is better, but that increases the cost of the whiteboard. Also, consider how much room you have to work with on your wall.
• Extras: consider extras such as included markers, a heavy duty border and magnetic design.
• Build quality: heavy duty boards are ideal if you need to move them around often.
