Written by Justin Smith | Feb 10, 2023 2:15:00 PM

Furnishing, decorating, and organizing your home office can be challenging. The market for home office equipment is oversaturated with “fast furniture” products and overpriced junk marketed as luxury items. Within this overwhelming context, it’s difficult to know where to begin when furnishing your home office space.

Shopping with the Mulberry browser extension is a great place to start when looking at office equipment. It allows you to view all the extended warranty plans that are available for your home office items, and lets you compare them in real time. Although each of these retailers offer their own protection plans, it's important to be aware of all the options on the market so you can make the best decision possible.

Why getting the right home office equipment matters

If you’re a remote worker, you already know the negative impacts an uncomfortable or poorly-designed workspace can have on your professional performance. But you might not think much about how specific equipment within your home office can influence your experience or productivity.

Whether you purchase office equipment from a furniture outlet, a general online retailer, or an office supply store, make sure that every item you buy is high-quality and serves a specific purpose in regard to your workflow and professional responsibilities.

With that in mind, here are a few sites that are chock full of affordable yet thoughtfully-crafted home office essentials.

Wayfair

This well-known online retailer offers every type of furniture you can imagine, as well as appliances and holiday items. Check out Wayfair’s wide range of home office desks, frequent sales and specials, and storage solutions to fully take advantage of all their offerings.

Home Depot 

Home Depot is a classic haunt for dads, handy-persons, and gardeners everywhere. It specializes in home improvement-related products, but also has everything from outdoor power equipment to bathroom sinks. Here you can find a range of items to revamp your home office, including Home Depot office chairs, desks, and even entire home office buildings to put in your backyard.

Ashley Furniture

Another reputable furniture retailer, Ashley Furniture Home Store shines when it comes to style and luxurious looks. Whether you’re searching for a standing desk, a bookcase, or decorative accessories, the Ashley Furniture home office line is sure to have something that fits the bill.

Amazon

Amazon is a retail giant that offers pretty much anything you can think of. You can purchase a range of office equipment and items to suit your entire space, and see them at your doorstep just hours later. Amazon office supplies such as paper shredders, smart lighting, and soundproof wall panels can improve your workspace at a shockingly low price.

It's important to read product reviews carefully when buying products on Amazon, however. Due to the large volume of items available, some items miss the mark and should be avoided.

Office Depot

This office equipment company is great for purchasing electronics such as printers, laptops, or multi-line phones. It also has top-notch furniture options— Office Depot chairs and Office Depot desks are excellent choices for your space. You can also snag office accessories, equipment, and supplies in a huge range of categories.

The importance of product protection

When shopping for the perfect office equipment, it's important to keep product protection in mind. While each of these retailers offer their own warranties, they typically only last for a short period of time, and don't cover some of the most common types of damage.

Install Mulberry's free browser extension to find all the product protection plans available for your items in real time as you shop. You can also take a look at extended warranty plans, in case you want extra protection that provides the most comprehensive product coverage.
