• Staff Answer
Modern Office has been in business since 1978. During that time, we have helped equipped thousands of businesses with top-quality office furniture. Being in business for over 40 years is a testament to our longevity. Unlike many fly-by-night furniture companies, we will be here for the long run for any needs you may have.
• Staff Answer
We own and occupy our own warehouse and showroom space, and manage our own order fulfillment rather than outsourcing to third-party fulfillment centers. Our product offerings are selected by us (not pre-packaged programs). We emphasize personal, knowledgeable customer service. When you call or write, you’re talking to people who know our product line, not an offshore call center unfamiliar with furniture.
A U-shaped desk is a versatile piece of furniture with a worksurface on three sides: front, one side, and back, providing ample room for multitasking and organization. An L-shaped desk features two sides: front and one side, offering a spacious layout. Both configurations are excellent choices for maximizing workspace, enhancing productivity, and optimizing office layouts compared to a standard rectangular office desk.
• Staff Answer
Absolutely. We maintain a showroom in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, where customers can view and test many of our products firsthand. Our knowledgeable staff is available to answer questions and help with design ideas. For those outside Minnesota, we provide detailed product photos, specifications, and personalized guidance by phone or email so you can shop confidently from anywhere in the U.S.
L-shaped desks provide significantly more workspace compared to a standard rectangular office desk. In a modern office setting where multiple monitors and peripherals are commonly used, an L-shaped desk is an excellent choice for offering additional space, enhanced organization, and improved productivity.
When selecting a desk, dimensions are crucial as they determine how well the desk fits in your workspace and accommodates your needs. Ideal desk dimensions can vary based on the user’s height, the available space, and the intended use of the desk. A standard desk height is about 29 to 30 inches, which suits most users. However, adjustable desks, such as the Sophisticate Electric Lift L-Shaped Bow Front Desk, offer flexibility for sitting or standing positions. With a range of sizes and configurations available, you can find the perfect fit for your office needs. Whether you need a compact desk or a spacious workstation, options abound to suit different spaces and preferences.
The material of a desk impacts its durability, appearance, and maintenance requirements. Popular materials include wood, metal, and laminate. Wooden desks provide a classic look and are often durable but can be heavy and require maintenance. Metal desks, like the Xdustrial Series Manager's Black Metal Frame Desk, offer a modern aesthetic and robust construction, ideal for high-traffic areas. Laminate desks are affordable, easy to clean, and resistant to scratches, making them a practical choice for many. The variety of materials available ensures that you can find a desk that meets both functional and aesthetic needs.
The number of workstations needed depends on the intended use and available space. Single workstations are suitable for individual use, while shared desks, like the Cherry Laminate 2-Person Peninsula Workstation w/Hutches, facilitate collaboration and save space. Multi-person workstations are ideal for open office settings and enhance teamwork. With options for one or multiple users, you can choose a desk setup that aligns with your office dynamics and space constraints.
Desk shape is an important consideration as it affects both functionality and the flow of your workspace. Rectangular desks are versatile and fit most spaces, while L-shaped desks provide additional surface area and are great for corner setups. U-shaped desks, like the Cherry Laminate U-Shaped Workstation by Gibraltar, offer ample workspace and are ideal for multitasking. The variety of shapes available allows you to choose a desk that maximizes your workspace efficiency and suits your work style.
A height-adjustable desk is a fantastic addition to any ergonomic office setup! It's well known that prolonged sitting is detrimental to your health, contributing to issues like back pain and reduced circulation. With a sit-to-stand desk, you can effortlessly alternate between sitting and standing, promoting better posture and increased energy levels. Many desks feature convenient memory settings, allowing you to switch to your preferred height with ease, making transitions seamless. This flexibility not only enhances comfort but also boosts productivity, supporting a healthier, more dynamic work environment.
