While doing all the office tasks for straight 8 to 10 hours, only the employees who sit on normal chairs can understand what kind of health implications they suffer due to bad quality furniture. It’s the utmost responsibility of every business that their employees should always find comfort during their stay in the office. And buying a piece of high-quality furniture is the best way to ensure that. There are many furniture shops in Jaipur that specialize in the office furniture category.
While providing good furniture to the employees, the office should also make sure that their employees have the knowledge of the best sitting postures as well as the primary home exercises that could help them stay healthy for a long duration of time. Buying office furniture is not an as easy task as you might think. Many CEOs and general managers leave the furniture buying process on their subordinates while sitting in their high-grade comfy chairs. That’s not the right way by any means. If you want how comfortable a chair or a piece of furniture actually is, then you have you sit on it and check.
Another way some modern office managers use is they select 4-5 types of chairs and ask the shopkeeper to deliver one sample of each type. Later, in the room, they ask all their employees to sit on the chairs and vote which one is the most comfortable one for them. That’s really a witty approach to win the hearts of all the employees as they will admire your effort to respect their choice and decision. In other words, when they think that they are in charge of selecting their own chair, there will be far fewer complaints than usual about the furniture issues office employees usually come across. While purchasing furniture for your office, these tips will definitely help you.
1) Return/Exchange Policy
Any genuine and quality manufacturer of furniture would always have a clear and transparent return and exchange policy. However, if you are visiting a cheap store just to fulfill your duties as the company owner to provide your employees something to sit on, then it will be less cost-effective in the long run. An ideal furniture store would return your furniture if there are certain defects, position pain issues, and early damages.
2) Service, Delivery, and Maintenance
Service, delivery, and maintenance, all three are equally important when you are buying furniture for your staff. If any problems with your furniture occur after a few days’ use, then the furniture manufacturer should provide a prompt maintenance service. The delivery of the furniture should also be on time. If one or many of your employees are not comfortable with the existing chairs and requesting you to change, you should only go with a manufacturer who could deliver the new pieces as soon as possible.
3) Always Check the Reviews of the Store
If you have been an old customer for the furniture shop and his track record is flawless, then you don’t have to worry about the other customer’s opinion or review it. However, if it’s the first time, you are going to order some office furniture from there, then check their Google, Social Media, and YouTube reviews. Nowadays, people have a tendency to review the places they visit.
4) Stay Miles Away from Cheap Furniture
There’s a saying that you purchase cheap furniture once and the side effects follow you for a lifetime. Cheap furniture always has some manufacturing defects like bolts hanging out of their welding spots, poor balancing, missing parts, and such other problems. So always buy good-quality furniture even if you have to pay a few extra bucks.
Many furniture showrooms in Jaipur strive to use low-quality material to design furniture when it comes to building office furniture. And their reason behind doing that is to maximize their profit margins. Since the orders for office furniture are in bulk, the show owners try that there’s no return policy associated with the order. Some firmly decline to return/refund in case of damage, while others would tell you that they could fix the anomaly in the damaged furniture for free or with a small fee. However, it is better to purchase high-quality furniture than to stay worried about the frequent breakage of furniture.
