We regularly survey BuyerZone users to ask how their purchases went. We've used their responses to provide a sampling of actual prices businesses paid for their office chairs.

The biggest pitfall to avoid when shopping for office chairs is the lure of the superstore. Businesses may be tempted by the low prices, but those chairs aren’t durable enough for regular use and may not feature all of the ergonomic benefits of high-quality chairs.

If you want to customize the look and feel of your chairs, you may have to pay extra to select colors, fabrics, and upholstery or added features like adjustable armrests and specialized controls. Of course, you’ll get the better prices if you purchase chairs already in stock. You may also be eligible for a volume discount based on the number of chairs you buy.

Remember that not all office chairs are equal. Chairs purchased in bulk, such as metal folding chairs or plastic stack chairs are considerably less expensive than standard task chairs. Likewise, a high-grade executive chair can cost two to three times as much as task chair. Budget accordingly depending on how you want to furnish your offices.
