Popular Questions
• 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.
• 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.
Additional features such as LED lights, storage options, and privacy panels can enhance the functionality and aesthetics of a reception desk. Desks like the Emerge Glass Top L-Shaped Reception Desk offer LED lighting for an illuminated backdrop, enhancing visibility and ambiance. Choosing a desk with additional features tailored to your needs ensures a more efficient and welcoming reception area.
• Staff Answer
We offer free shipping to all 48 contiguous U.S. states on eligible items. Most items are either in stock or ship within a few business days. We accept purchase orders (helpful for government or institutional buyers). We offer a 30-day return period for many items (except custom items). You would be responsible for return shipping, and a restocking fee may apply for large orders.
• Staff Answer
Yes. Whether you’re furnishing a home office, a small startup space, or a large corporate headquarters, we have experience with projects of every scale. We’ve supplied furniture to thousands of businesses, schools, healthcare organizations, and government offices across the country. Our team can guide you through space planning, bulk ordering, and ongoing support to ensure your office is both functional and welcoming.
The finish of a reception desk affects its durability and visual appeal. High gloss finishes, like those on the 126"W Curved Wave High Gloss White 2-Person Reception Desk, offer a sleek and modern look that is easy to clean. Woodgrain finishes provide a more traditional and warm appearance. With a range of finishes available, you can choose one that best matches your office's decor and maintenance preferences.
Storage options in a reception desk are vital for maintaining an organized and clutter-free workspace. Desks with built-in drawers and filing systems, such as the Emerge Glass Top Reception Desk, offer secure and accessible storage for documents and office supplies. The availability of various storage configurations allows you to select a desk that meets your specific organizational needs.
The counter type of a reception desk can enhance its aesthetic appeal and functionality. Glass top counters, like those featured on the Emerge Glass Top L-Shaped Reception Desk, offer a modern and sophisticated look while being easy to clean. Frosted or clear glass options add privacy and style. With various counter types available, you can select one that complements your office's design while meeting practical needs.
The shape of a reception desk can influence the flow and functionality of the space. L-shaped desks, like the Curved L-Shaped Reception Desk, provide ample workspace and create a welcoming atmosphere. U-shaped desks, such as the U-Shaped Curved Glass Top Reception Desk, offer even more surface area and can accommodate more equipment or staff. The variety of shapes available ensures that you can find a design that optimizes your reception area's layout and functionality.
