Quality matters…
Commercial office furniture that’s built to endure a 40+ hour work week is a must for serious work at home professionals. If that sounds like you, you’ll want to choose products that are going to withstand scratches, nicks, dings, dents and any other damage the furniture can incur as you move from project to project. Since this workspace is going to part of your home for a long time, look for a manufacturer’s warranty in the area of 10 years or more.
Staying connected via technology is especially crucial while working from home. Surfaces with features like wire management and built-in USB ports are great for keeping electronic devices ready to go so you never miss an important message from your boss or team member.
…But so does cost
If you’re only working remotely for a month or two, you probably don’t need to spend top dollar on commercial-grade furnishings. Collections that are designed for the home rather than for professional use are often less expensive and come in a variety of styles to match any taste. Some desks are designed to have multiple uses, so you can repurpose your workspace as a sofa table or console table once you’re back in the office.
Additionally, most online retailers feature a clearance section where you can find big savings on older products. This is a great way for budget shoppers to find high quality items for a fraction of the cost.

Remember, what works for someone else may not be the right choice for you. Be sure to take stock of your situation and check around for the right furnishings to fit your specific needs.
