For many companies, the boardroom or conference room is the location where important deals are signed, where first time customers and vendors are met, and a focal point for corporate meetings. For this reason, the furniture in the boardroom or conference room should reflect the image of the company, in many cases functional, professional and state of the art. One cost effective way to make your boardroom or conference room a status symbol without delving too far into the company coffers is to make use high end of used office furniture.

Whether the dimensions of your conference room will best suite a 6 foot or a 24 foot table, it is possible to find a refinished, beautiful table specific to your style and needs. You can find used hardwood boardroom tables in maple, cherry, oak, mahogany or even veneers and laminates. There are several popular shapes including oval, rectangular, boat and figure eight. Some used conference tables even fold down for easy storage when not in use.

Even though the table is a focal point of the room, eventually your guests and employees will also sit in your chairs, and these should also be comfortable, aesthetically pleasing and functional. If a chair is uncomfortable, wobbly or squeaky, it can be very distracting in an important meeting.

Conference and boardroom chairs should be fully adjustable for all heights and postures. Also make sure that the chairs you choose will fit well under your table, and slide or roll easily so that they can be pulled in under the table. The chairs will also complete the look and style of your boardroom, enable productivity, and provide comfort during long meetings.

Your boardroom or conference room can be well designed by purchasing used office furniture at terrific savings, enabling you to present your company to guests and clients in a positive light. They may even look forward to a meeting and be eager to do business with you if your boardroom is functional and comfortable.
