DISCOUNT CHAIRS

The current economic environment has placed a strain on office and facility managers faced with a need to upgrade outdated or damaged furniture but restricted by reduced budgets. Given the impact of correct task and executive seating on employee productivity, managers are taking a closer look at discount office chairs as a solution.

Office solutions companies such as EQA Office Furniture can be a big help in upgrading office chairs at discount prices, says the company’s Vice President Bruce Mallet. This is because as a volume purchaser EQA is able to secure attractive discounts from manufacturers who may be overstocked and eager to keep production lines going. The savings, which can be 45% to 50% below list price, are passed on to the customer. Moreover, reputable office solutions companies back their discount office chairs with a 5-year warranty, will ship anywhere in the USA within 5-7 days of receipt of order, and may offer free shipping depending on the size of the order.

Buyers should be assured that discount office chairs are not to be confused with “seconds” or otherwise damaged product, Mallett cautions. These are first-quality chairs that replace worn or broken seating used in office cubicles or behind office desks and are a major contributor to upgrading the appearance of the office as a whole.

Nor is choice limited. Several styles of discount chairs are available for task, management seating, and in stackable configurations used for guest or conference seating. Design features include 5-star bases with casters, leather and fabric upholstery, open mesh backs, pneumatic height adjustment and position locks.

Before signing a purchase order, be sure all issues are resolved including the availability of the desired chairs in sufficient quantity.
