As businesses continue to thrive in the digital age, a higher percentage of Americans have been working from home at least half of the week. Whether they prefer this setup to save on travel costs or to have more control over their schedule, a proper home office can further help increase their productivity and efficiency. However, with numerous office furniture options on the market, buyers can get overwhelmed and end up purchasing items they rarely use. To help you get started with your furniture shopping, here's a list of essentials for your home workstation.

The Productive Home Office Checklist

1. Chairs

When you work from home, you probably spend hours sitting in front of a laptop. For your comfort and health, opt for an ergonomic chair, as this office furniture can help prevent back pain and improve posture.  The health of your body should be the higher priority than anything else in your office.  We have over 100 models to fit you and your needs plus our team is trained to help you make a wise and informed choice.

2. Desks

An area dedicated to your work, such as a desk, helps boost your productivity. Ergonomic choices, which allow you to adjust the table's height, are also available to reduce posture problems.  You can try these at our showrooms.

As much as you want to go entirely paperless, you still need to keep files such as birth certificates and receipts. To keep your workstation organized, install office furniture like filing cabinets to store documents and supplies.  We even carry fireproof filing cabinets for important documents.

4. Lighting

Avoid eye strain by installing adequate lighting in your home office. Quality lighting not only allows you to work more efficiently, but it also brightens your mood and creates a more positive atmosphere.

5. Computer

Most home businesses utilize computers for various tasks: selling, marketing, writing, research, graphic design, online meetings, and video editing, among others. Purchase a device that meets the demands of your profession or business. For example, graphic designers and video editors need computers with superior processors, higher memory and RAM, and bigger displays.  Wire management is essential and we can show you inexpensive ways to do this.
