Office chairs are one of the most critical purchases for every office. The chair provides comfort and support throughout the workday, every day, all year long; or at least it’s supposed to. It should be a safe assumption that everyone has had to endure a poor-quality chair in the past, or perhaps even now. I know that I can think back on a particular chair and my back aches in remembrance at just the thought of it. Some people look at the copy machine scene in the Office Space movie and relate, but for me I would have loved to take a baseball bat to this so-called office chair.
Today, I thought I would highlight a selection of heavy duty office chairs to help pro (Read More)

Recently I was given the chance to select a new office chair for my home office. I am an employee of Madison Liquidators that works remotely from home. I spent a week in the office back in June and while there I had the opportunity to try out several office chairs to make an educated decision. After a week of trying out several different chairs, I made my selection; I chose the Via Seating Genie.
Being a heavier set guy, I knew that I would want a heavy duty office chair. Madison Liquidators has a great selection of office chairs especially heavy duty options. As I tried each option, I wanted to select the one that was the best fit for me. Most of the chairs that I tri (Read More)

Guest chairs are comforts for those that partner with us in our business endeavors. We don’t want to greet guests to have them sit uncomfortably while in our offices. No, we want good impressions every time our partners enter our offices. Guest chairs can be overlooked in the first impression of the office because of sensory overload, but I assure you that upon second and third visits comfort will be brought to the forefront of their minds.
With this, I would like to look at the range of guests chairs that we have in our inventory for you, and what a wide range it is! We will look at everything from stacking chairs made from mesh to premium leather guest chairs to s (Read More)

A New Under Desk Cable Management System is Available
I want to make this short, sweet and to the point! All of us who work from desks have a universal issue when it comes to our workstations- cable management. No matter our working situation, we always seem to have wires going everywhere. Whether it's power cords or mouse and keyboard cables, we all could use a solid desk cable organizer. With a wide array of devices and accessories that sit on desks these days, we need some help!

I recently took a look at Fresh Reception Desk Ideas for 2023 as an overall look at revitalizing your office space in the new year. While a reception desk is the centerpiece of a waiting room, it is not all the furniture that makes up the space. Another key office furniture need is waiting room seating. Since the waiting room is the first place that guests will see when entering your business, it is important to have attractive, comfortable, and durable office furniture seating for them when they visit. This first impression will go a long way in setting the tone for your office with guests.
With all of this in mind, I am going to provide you with several pieces of waiti (Read More)

Executive chairs just sit different. Pardon my slang, but it’s true. Executive chairs are considered to be high end office furniture that belongs in the big office. However, just because the name is executive chair doesn’t mean that they can only be found in an executive office. Any office can enjoy the upscale design of these desk chairs. So, anyone who needs a more comfortable or more ergonomically designed office chair should consider purchasing one.
One of our partners- Boss Office Products a leader in office furniture, has quite a few exceptional executive chairs available on the Madison Liquidators online marketplace. I picked out six of my personal fav (Read More)

Minimalist Definition
What are your first thoughts about minimalism?
Having only a few items? Wearing only black t-shirts?
Or is it more along the lines of being intentional about what you purchase?
According to the well-known 'The Minimalists,' Minimalism is:
"a tool to rid yourself of life's excess in favor of focusing on what's important - so you can find happiness, fulfillment, and freedom."
For those that practice minimalism in their lives, they want to simplify their way of living, truly enjoy what they have and eliminate the stress that comes with owning and acquiring more and more. This may seem like a (Read More)

Executive offices require special office furniture, right? What’s the point of being in the big office if you can’t enjoy the benefits? If we take the 1980s yuppie phrase of “work hard, play harder” then we can assume that we should reward ourselves for making it to the top of the business. Okay, so that tongue in cheek spill was my attempt at humor, but the underlying message is true. Executive office furniture is built to higher standards than regular office furniture with the executive in mind.
Let’s take executive office chairs for example. You will find larger office chairs with more comfort considerations built in, and more luxury ma (Read More)

Office couches are common in many businesses across the world. They can be found in reception areas, waiting rooms, breakrooms, and executive offices. They are staples anywhere guests need seating. Depending on the business type, perhaps cheaper stackable chairs for a waiting room but selecting a high quality office couch will bring a higher level of a professional look for the office space. Selecting a stylish office couch set in place of cheaper alternatives is a choice that shows customers that their comfort is a priority to you. Office couch, love seat, and club chair seating not only brings a level of comfort, and a stylish look but it can help guests and customers f (Read More)

I do all my writing in my home office, and I recently realized that I don’t talk enough about office furniture selections for a space like this. Many of us began working from a dedicated space in our homes around the time of the onset of Covid-19 and have stayed there ever since. In a place such as this, a lot of times the work area is small because we just don’t have all that much square footage to give up for a home office. So, over the next few months, I will be looking at office furniture that will fit in small places inside a home office or even that professional business that doesn’t have much workspace.
Today I will begin this series with the o (Read More)

If your office desk is like most people's, it can be inundated with a whole host of electronic devices, from computer screens and laptops to charging phones and air pods. While cable management solutions are great for organization, what is the best system for charging multiple devices?

Enter The Charging Station.
A charging station, or office charging station, is a device or system designed to recharge electronic devices in a workplace setting.
It's similar to an extension cord in that it utilizes multiple outlets. The benefit of newer models of charging stations is that they don't sit on the floor but are made in space-saving shapes, such (Read More)

When it comes to furnishing new conference room office furniture, the room is not complete without the conference room chairs. These key aspects of the puzzle are often overlooked or forgotten completely with on-hand used office chairs or uncomfortable folding chairs in rare circumstances. However, there are some tradeoffs that come with such a decision.
First and foremost is the potential loss of a professional atmosphere. That is one area that can negatively impact the business. With the conference room being the lifeblood of a busy office, a professional atmosphere is beneficial on many levels. It provides an efficient and productive space to have meetings.

Post pandemic many jobs are homebased. It is an excellent alternative to the daily commute and the stress that comes with it. Let’s be honest, who doesn’t love working in their underwear without the worry of being reported to human resources? Moving on…
I work from home, and have done so for two years now. I cannot put into words how much I truly enjoy it. Quality of life has improved. No more waking up two hours before work to get ready and drive. No more scraping frost off my windshield. But more than that, being a homebody… I just enjoy being in my own home!
A lot of us have had to make this choice, some out of necessity from the pandemic. Not everyone had a (Read More)

Training tables are so versatile for a growing office. For example- when a larger than normal conference meeting needs to be conducted, these tables make it happen. In a moment of growth, they can become temporary workstations while the office is being set up. They fit well in a cafeteria or breakroom when needed. Still, the design use is training employees. No matter the reason, these specialized office furniture fixtures come in handy in a variety of ways and serve well in each setting.
There are two types of training tables to choose from- traditional fixed frame and nesting flip tops that allow for multiple tables to be placed together for valuable space saving pra (Read More)

When thinking about office furniture, decorations are often a low priority. With so many other more pressing matters such as desks, conference tables, chairs, break room furniture, and storage just to name a few; it’s easy to put decorations on the back burner. However, an office isn’t complete if it is a sterile work environment with no character.

Studies have been conducted by countless organizations and the consensus is that a well designed office promotes productivity, morale, builds client confidence, and enhances the branding of the business.

One of the most common questions I get from people who know I work from home is how to furnish a home office on a budget, I get it a lot. Since I’ve been in this office furniture game for close to two and a half years now, I feel like I have gotten some insights into this question. I am by no means an interior designer, so please don’t look to me for any home remodeling advice unless you’re open to canary yellow walls throughout.
I understand the desire to do a home office on a budget myself. I mean, I’m not the only person who notices that our hard earned dollars don’t go as far as they used to. It really is a different world than it (Read More)

After reviewing standing office furniture for the past week or so, I thought I would look into this style in the most popular office desk around today- the L shaped desk. L shaped desks are always “flying off the shelf” at Madison Liquidators and for good reason. They provide an upgraded workstation compared to a traditional rectangular desk. They give the worker double the desktop workspace versus a traditional shaped desk. This extra workspace pays dividends for project management and desktop organization. I personally work from an L shaped desk and do so because I was allowed to pick out my own desk, so I like so many others went with L shaped office furniture.

I’d like to continue our look into white office furniture. Our previous look was at white reception desk ideas which affects the front office the most. This time I want to look at white conference tables. From the front office to the inner circle of most office settings.
According to Office.Furniture white is “a symbol of innocence, wholesomeness, and completion” and “conveys a lot of ideals about trustworthiness, honesty, and home.” In effect white is a go to color for an office that wants to project cleanliness, style, and substance. With this in mind, we will be looking at four white conference table ideas. But one does not simply selec (Read More)

Everyday for at least 8 hours you go to work, sit down and don't get up again until it's time to leave. But have you ever given any thought to what you're sitting on?
If you're like most people, the office furniture provided for you by your company is the office furniture you use. Or conversely, if you are the company, you probably purchased the office furniture you need based on price and volume. That means that you may not be getting the most comfortable, ergonomic, or quality office chair.
This could be a problem.

The modern office design is increasingly popular in offices across North America these days. One of the main reasons is the design fits so well in the open office concept. From its minimalist layout to the sleek lines, and bold colors there’s just something about an office that is wide open, bathed in natural light that just naturally creates an inclusive and cooperative office. To borrow the words of Forest Gump- modern office design and open office concept “go together like peas and carrots.”
When starting a modern office design, it is best to start with the centerpiece of the office, which is the desk. The most popular desk style today is the (Read More)

Versatility with the office furniture can be a bonus for a growing office. Take the L shaped desk for example. If we purchase one for the space we are in now, wouldn’t it be great if it fit the next office space we put it in even if the configuration of the desk is required to be different? I know it’s a luxury to be able to think that far ahead but with most L shaped desks, you don’t have to worry they are naturally reversible.
While some L shaped desks are designed for a very specific layout, most are designed to be reversible to fit any office space. Today, I want to draw your attention to the benefit of purchasing a reversible L shaped desk so tha (Read More)

Quick! Name an office staple that you use regularly but don't put much thought into buying. If you said pens, I'll accept it. But I was thinking more along the lines of something luminary.
All pens aside, when you need to get work done late or need just a bit of extra light for a dark corner of the office, the desk lamp is the staple that everyone has, but only the creative and natural aesthete takes care in choosing.
Let's change that now. Here are 5 (plus a bonus) desk lamps that are cool, unique, modern and other adjectives.

A great option for a small or growing business in lieu of a conference room is a bow front desk for the office. If you are meeting a small number of people, the bow front desk works as a de facto conference table. Designed specifically for the purpose of meeting guests in your own office, it allows you to function as a full-sized business in limited office space.
Several years ago, I worked for a small but successful land surveying company. The boss had a bow front desk in his office, and it functioned exactly this way. If we had to have a party chief meeting, it was done across his bow front desk. If we met with clients, it was done there. Also, on those rain days whe (Read More)

So, you’re in need of a big desk? Madison Liquidators can help. We have a fantastic selection of U shaped desks with hutches. These office furniture selections not only does the U shaped design provide three large desktop work areas, but the added hutch also provides a high level of storage space is a game changer for a highly productive office worker.
One of the biggest considerations to make for a U shaped desk with hutch is that it takes up a large amount of square footage compared to other office furniture options. Another note is that the hutch needs to be set against an office wall for stability so placement in the office will need attention prior to purchase (Read More)

You may already consider yourself a "plant parent" at home but the benefits you get from having houseplants can just as easily translate into your office work environment.

Conference rooms are important, in fact in a lot of offices they are the heart of the entire operation. It’s where daily staff meetings take place, or the all-important big meetings with clients, or safety meetings. They are even where close offices have employee birthday parties and so much more. It’s hard to put a value that a conference room has on a business. Whether big or small, the conference room has extreme value to each office. While a large office has the freedom to select almost any conference table on the market and it will fit. A small office must be more strategic.
With this in mind, this blog intends to be a strategic guide for a small offic (Read More)

Over 66% of households own a pet according to the American Pet Products Association, with Millennials taking the largest share of pet ownership at 33%. Compare that to Team Stage data which states that millennials make up 35% (or 1/3) of the current workforce, which means that a good portion of the workforce probably consider themselves to be pet parents.
Since the pandemic, a lot of the benefits of home pet ownership have come to light, and for the workplace the same applies. A few different studies have explored what kind of effect having an office pet (or a few) has had on workers, with a multitude of positive results. Here are the 3 most surprising ins (Read More)

Office collaboration is important. Increasingly offices are moving to a more open and inclusive office layout. Traditional cubicle layouts are being phased out in favor of opening up the workspace in favor of open spaces that feature increased natural lighting brought on by the elimination of huge light blocking partitioned walls.

Storage furniture is a particularly vital component of a fully functioning professional office. However, office storage furniture is often one of the most forgotten aspects of office furniture when furnishing an office.

With that in mind, we have decided to highlight a few commonly purchased storage furniture solutions for the office. These selections were carefully chosen for their storage ability, and knack for completing an office. Everything from bookcases to credenzas (Read More)

Office furniture accessories are often overlooked when we first furnish an office. I get it, our attention is elsewhere like finding the perfect desk for each office or ensuring that all the desks from the receptionist to the executive hold a singular cohesive style throughout the office. Which are important tasks in their own right. However, a stylish office isn’t the only aspect of an office that needs to be addressed up front.
The other side of that coin is functionality. An office that looks stylish but is disorganized is not a healthy work environment at all. Instead, a little time should be given to ensure that the office functions as well as it looks. A fu (Read More)

This is my regular reminder that sit stand desks exist and improve the health of the office worker. I was talking with a friend who is an office worker from home the other day and she was complaining about how sitting down so much has made her seek out the aid of a chiropractor about once a quarter. This immediately got me championing sit stand desks as a healthy alternative that can give her much needed movement daily while still remaining just as productive. She said she had heard of them but thought they were more of a novelty than an actual fundamental change that I view them as.
