I will never purchase office furniture from anywhere else! I shopped multiple locations both local and online, both national and smaller retailers. As a professional buyer, I have also purchased multiple brands of office furniture from multiple retailers. The customer service, price, quality, and selection of Madison was excellent compared to my previous experiences with other retailers.
Some bullet points:
The Madison furniture is VERY customizable!
I had a list of things I was looking for in a desk so it would fit perfectly in the space in my home office. No matter how much I searched, no one had what I wanted.
From Madison, I ordered exactly the desk I wanted. Try to find a 36” depth desk that is at least 60” wide, with an L return that has a 30” depth. And here’s the thing: their desks and L returns can be ordered in customizable widths/lengths (adjustable plus or minus in 6” increments), and multiple depths. The message here: get the desk that’s ordered and built just for you!
Other customizable points:
If you ask, they will add cable holes wherever you want them (in the desk, the L return, or the lower panels) capped off with nice grommets.
The drawer pedestal can be attached to the desk, can include wheels, or can have a top piece to match the desk. I chose to leave the top piece off and went without the wheels so it would fit under the desk. I left it unattached so I can easily move it around to whatever position under the desk or L return I want. It looks like it’s attached, but it’s not.
They have a list of finishes to choose from.
Other points:
The hutch I purchased has an opening tall enough for my two 28” monitors to comfortably fit underneath (very hard to find! I tried before I found Madison).
I like that the hutch has an open center shelf for easy to grab stuff and frosted glass doors to hide stuff behind on the sides. I use the very top of the hutch for my modem, a surge protector, an external hard drive, etc.
Compared to all the other furniture I looked at and have purchased previously, including name brand office furniture, this furniture is thick and sturdy. It’s laminate, just like most of the other stuff out there, but it’s really sturdy, and has a nice finish. It was built to last. Unless you are willing to spend big on solid wood furniture, and unless the limited solid wood size options work for you, the Madison laminated furniture is the way to go. As a side note- the Madison furniture did not have a formaldehyde smell like I experienced with some other furniture.
The price was very reasonable, and less than furniture I looked at from other places.
Customer service was great. Madison Liquidators walked me through the options after I explained what I was looking for.
Before contacting Madison Liquidators, I called other places. The other places took my information, said they would call me back, but never did. They just wanted to move on to the next quick easy sale. Madison helped me choose the size I wanted, and choose from various styles, and finishes. They really helped me get the exact desk I wanted for my home office.
The only thing I would do different- I would have purchased a desk one size wider than the width of the hutch. The hutch fits perfectly on the desk. But it’s so perfect, when you are putting the desk together and get to point where you set the hutch on top of the desk, you have to be careful not to accidentally push one side over the edge of desk. Once the hutch is secure using the double sided tape, it won’t move at all. But to make installation easier, I recommend purchasing a desk 6” wider than the hutch just to give you a 6” cushion when setting the hutch on top of the desk. Either that, or make sure you and your friend are extra careful when setting the hutch on the desk.
Also, don’t forget to tell them if you want extra grommet holes and where you want them.
Everyone’s house, office and use is different. Get the desk that is...
