Home working had been relatively popular for a while, but the 2020 Coronavirus outbreak triggered a surge in demand for home office furniture, as millions were urged to leave their traditional workspaces behind.
Although many of us had to improvise and make do with the furniture we had when lockdown struck, the continued popularity of home working has led thousands to subsequently set up permanent office spaces at home. This can be quite a pricey endeavour though, particularly if you want your office to look as stylish as the rest of your home. But there is a solution.
Benefits of second-hand office furniture
Instead of forking out for brand-new items, you could enjoy hard wearing, stylish, high performance office furniture from top brands for much less if you buy used.
Renowned manufacturers
Manufacturers like Herman Miller, Orangebox and Humanscale charge a premium for their products, and for good reason: they’re some of the best on the market. They’re not normally particularly budget-friendly, but sourcing second-hand items changes that. Prices tumble by hundreds of pounds, making these chairs, tables and accessories significantly more affordable – and because they’re built to last, you won’t have to worry about replacing them anytime soon.
Second-hand furniture has the added benefit of being more environmentally friendly. The furniture we sell is in excellent condition and has years of life left in it, so by reusing it you’re choosing the greener, lower-carbon option.
Buy from LOF and you’ll benefit from a three-month parts warranty too, giving you total peace of mind and allowing you to relax and enjoy your new furniture right from the off.
