Mudman Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 I have been tasked with getting some new office chairs (about 6). We normally get office stuff from Viking but wondering anyone in the trade or can recommend a supplier - Budget is about £150 per chair Looking at the executive chair sort of thing I will also have a few to dispose of - they are all serviceable so if any wants one let me know but would be collection only from North Norfolk before you get too excited !

zzzzz Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 A colleague highly recommends this chair http://chairsforoffices.com/executive-chairs/executive-reclining-office-chair-headrest-and-lumbar-support-blue.html and within your budget Quote
Harryjax Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 I purchased some office furniture several years ago for work. I got it all from KEY Good quality and still going strong. Also they price match. Quote
Flex Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 I think Ekona is your man on this but his budget is around £3k per chair. Quote
GMballistic Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Have you ever heard of Orangebox? That's where we've got some of our office/workshop chairs from. Link: http://www.orangebox.com/ Quote
Ekona Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 I think Ekona is your man on this but his budget is around £3k per chair. Nothing so cheap. http://shop1.porsche.com/uk/lifestyle/original/wap0500080e/office-chair.pdds 1 Quote

Ekona Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Back to reality though, whilst that chair is excellent (I've tried it out at the Macan launch), it's not worth four grand. I normally buy mine from Staples, as I can try before I buy. Quote
docwra Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 Staples try before you buy is a good shout, but at £150 youll be replacing them every 12/18 months as they are generally pretty poor quality and dont stand up to being used. Id strongly advise going to a secondhand office furniture supplier, we use these guys http://www.luof.co.uk/ and recently got 4 Steelcase Leap chairs (RRP $1700 each) for about £250 a piece IIRC. Sounds a lot but if youre in it for 8+ days a week its worth splashing out IO Quote

Mudman Posted January 27, 2015 Author Posted January 27, 2015 Thanks for that Recently got one for home - remind anyone of anything ? Quote
Mudman Posted January 27, 2015 Author Posted January 27, 2015 There's speaks a man of some experience ? Quote
Ekona Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 True. I was only there to give your mum some biscuits, though. ;) Sadly, I've never even been to a strip club, much less a proper place of ill repute 1 Quote

Ekona Posted January 27, 2015 Posted January 27, 2015 I have that exact chair in my office, in that colour as well. It's very comfy, but don't expect quality for that price. Mine had a couple of nicks in on arrival, and now two or three years later there's a good tear in the seat base along the stitching. Not a problem really, just expect to replace it once a year and you'd be okay. Quote
