Complete Desk Suites

Buying office furniture is never easy. Any desk arrangement has to meet several criteria. It has to fit within an allotted space. It has to have enough storage and surface area for the user. It has to hold a computer, monitor and whatever cables come with them. Most of the time, elements of a proper desk configuration are sold separately, leaving you to visualize if a desk, pedestal and return will all fit together without taking too much space. The solution to this last problem is clear- order a full desk suite as a set.


Most of the time, the ideal set-up will be one of many common arrangements. There's a simple desk with a pedestal and either a left or right return. Perhaps you'd like a hutch on top of that. A credenza on the other side will create a U-Workstation, or eliminate the bridge and stick with desk space on the front and back.


Both Hon and bbf offer desk suites that take the guesswork out of office furniture and offer a full set designed to meet your needs. Series like the Hon Voi make sure that there are plenty of stylish options if you're going for something less traditional. Check this page for more information on buying a desk suite!

Out With The Old

This is a Officesupply.com product availability alert! Hon is known for quality and classy business furniture and they wanted us to get the word out about a couple of their lines that are being discontinued later this month. Time is running out on getting a brand of desks, credenzas and drawers that combine subtle touches of style with convenience.

The Hon Attune series will be coming off the market on September 28. The series is designed to offer a contemporary look while offering neat accents like frosted glass modesty panels and slim pedestals. If you're still looking for desk furniture after the Attune series is gone, consider the Hon 10700 series. This is durable laminate furniture that has a similar modern look at a much lower price.



Another of Hon's sets scheduled to be discontinued is the Simplicity series of panels. These are used to create cubicles and workstations. The suggested replacement is the Versé series by Basyx. This series is easy to put together, offers color options that go better with other Hon furniture and is still lined with the same fabric to allow employees to hang photos, organizers and anything that makes their job easier and more comfortable.

Office Chairs with Free Returns


Buying office furniture can be fraught with tough decisions. Do you purchase more expensive higher quality furniture that will last longer? Do you purchase cheaper furniture that will need replacing sooner? Do you buy online to save money or in a store so you can sample the product?

DiscountOfficeItems.com has solved all your chair buying problems by allowing free return shipping on select office chairs for a limited time. This is your chance to shop for chairs online with no risk! If your chair isn't as comfortable as you would have liked, you can send it back at no charge.

Rather than saving money online, many people shop for office furniture at big box stores only because they can sit in the chairs and get a feel for them before buying (sadly, racing chairs down the aisles is frowned upon at most retailers). Now you have a way to take advantage of online savings without having to worry about being saddled with an uncomfortable saddle.

The six qualifying chairs represent a variety of products from Basyx, from an Executive Leather Chair to a Mid-Back Work Chair with a Mesh Seating to a Guest Chair. Basyx is a division of Hon Furniture, offering the same Hon quality at lower prices. One of these chairs could very well be the one for you. If so, you'd better make sure to get it ordered. If not, the free return shipping means no harm done.

Update! The free returns policy now applies to all chairs!

Comic Books and Furniture and Stuff

Have you seen The Avengers movie? It is so hot right now it could fry an egg on the sidewalk. Some people might think that it would be a boon to local comic book shops, but oddly enough, no. I have heard that many comic book shops are selling out of Infinity Gauntlet books though (if you don't know, don't ask). Anybody who thought that this movie might spur on the comic book frenzy of the mid 90's was sadly mistaken. All the comic geeks out there will still have to explain who The Badger and The Tick are to the non geeks. Feel free to share your jokes about the Ottoman Empress and the Ottoman Empire with me because nobody else will get them.

It's funny because an Ottoman is a piece of furniture.

If you are lucky you might be able to engage in a conversation about how the movie adaption of the Avengers isn't exactly the same as the comic book Avengers or the comic book Ultimates, but finding a middle ground that tends more towards the old Jack Kirby and Stan Lee adventures.

You could also attempt to engage those more economically minded with a conversation about the estimated $160 billion worth of damage the alien invaders would have caused to Manhattan. You could talk to people about the implications this has on the Marvel Universe and how it doesn't matter to Bruce Wayne because he lives in Gotham which is like New York but it exists in a different universe. Maybe you'll want to talk about Damage Control if you just want to prove your chops in annals of fandom.

But what about the human face on all that destruction? Those poor people will need to rebuild their homes and offices from a veritably pile of rubble. From what I remember it was mostly high rise office buildings that were getting thrashed by the Chitauri which means somebody is going to need a whole lot of new furniture for their office.

Luckily, DiscountOfficeItems.com is having a super powered sale on furniture.  You knew I couldn't keep up with all that comic book talk for too long did you?  This is an office supplies blog after all. You have probably all purchased office supplies online before but you've probably never thought about buying office furniture there as well. Let me drop some science on you my friend, it's more affordable than you think. When you can find bargains on furniture like this you'll easily be saving scads of money.


Yes, when you buy something like a desk or a chair online you might end up paying a bit more for shipping than if you picked up that same item at a big box retailer, but you'll save money on those products in the long run. Plus, they will be delivered to your building and nobody has to bother with trying to figure out how to haul a desk in the trunk of a Prius or carry it on the train and/or bus.

So when you are recovering from the next super villain attack and on a budget (assuming Tony Stark isn't fronting all the cash for your operation), don't forget to price out your furniture online. You'll save time and money over looking elsewhere for the same product.
