Desks Buyer's Guide
Buying Tips
Remanufactured Furniture
One attractive option for low cost, but high-end desks is to buy remanufactured furniture. Vendors replace worn parts and refinish surfaces to remove damage. Limited availability generally makes this a better solution for smaller companies.
Best time to buy
Sales are generally slowest during the summer, making it the best time to negotiate a deal on furniture.
Using a desk as a table
If the desk will be used for conferences or group work, look for a model with a deep overhang to provide more leg space for coworkers.
Durability
The warranty can give a good sense for the life expectancy of a desk. Mid-market desks typically come with warranties of 5 to 15 years, while high-end desks are designed to last several decades.
The edges of a desk typically show the most wear, especially at the corners and at the center near the chair. You may want to check the edge surface to test its resistance to chipping.
