Branch’s Black Friday Sale Lets You Save on Our Favorite Home Office Furniture

The Branch Black Friday sales event is live and runs through December 2. It’s become one of my favorite home office furniture companies for three main reasons. First, its products are easy to assemble, with clear instructions and helpful assembly videos. Second, they look good, with multiple color options and an overall aesthetic that’s easy on the eyes. Third, everything is reasonably priced. Sure, you can find cheaper office chairs and standing desks, but these are well-designed, functional, and have longer warranties than most.

During the Black Friday sale event, you can get 15 percent off select products, and 20 percent off if you bundle things together, which also nets you free shipping. You’ll need to use the code BFCM at checkout to see the discount in your cart. I’ve tested a handful of products from the company—here’s what I like the most that’s well worth your money. Be sure to check our live Black Friday deals here.

Updated on November 29: It’s Black Friday! We’ve added two new deals and corrected prices.

Branch Office Chair Deals

This has been my top office chair recommendation for several years. It’s well priced, quite adjustable, and looks pleasant. You can get it in fun colors, but this bumps up the price. The armrests go up, down, back, and forward, and you can adjust the seat depth (helpful for taller people). There’s adjustable lumbar support as well, to make sure it’s supporting the natural curve in the spine. The seat foam is cushy, and the mesh back allows for good airflow. I had no trouble sitting on it for hours as a 6’4″ man, but my 5’1″ wife also enjoyed it.

Branch just released the Ergonomic Chair Pro, which supposedly improves on the original in several ways. I have it in a box but have not had a chance to set it up and try it. If you’d like to take your chances, it’s also on sale for a tempting $75 discount, costing you $424.

The Verve is the “next step up” pick in our guide if you can spend a little more, though that might change soon, once I try the Ergonomic Chair Pro. It keeps my back straighter, is just as comfy, and looks prettier. There’s a headrest add-on if you want, but I don’t think it’s necessary. If you need a wider seat, you may want to look elsewhere, as the seat arms can feel like they’re boxing you in. Speaking of which, these arms only go up and down, so there’s not much you can do to move them around. Still, there’s a good level of polish on this chair that’s a step above the Ergonomic Chair.

The Softside feels more like you’re sitting on an armchair than an office chair. If you have a bookshelf in your office and are a frequent tea drinker, it just might complete your room’s aesthetic. It’s soft all around with a lovely fabric that feels durable. If you need a wide seat, this isn’t the chair for you—the arms are fixed and rise directly from the seat, boxing you in. There’s not much else in the way of adjustability outside of locking the recline, but my back didn’t complain after weeks on this chair.

I tested the High Back version, which goes all the way past my shoulders (I’m 6’4″). The standard model is the Mid Back, which I can’t vouch for, but may be suitable for shorter folks. You can also swap out the fabric for leather or vegan leather, but I haven’t tried either.

Branch Standing Desk Deals

I’m working on a standing desks guide, and the Duo is my choice for anyone limited on space. It’s a very small standing desk (though you can choose from multiple sizes), and the desk add-ons are easy to install, like the cable organizer and drawer. It’s made of manufactured wood and has a powder-coated steel frame, and it didn’t take me too long to assemble. There’s a paddle on the right to raise or lower the desk, with two height presets. It’s a little tricky to figure out how to save the heights you want, so keep that manual handy.

This was one of the first nice standing desks I tested. You get multiple height presets, quiet motors, and a large desktop to fit all your stuff. There’s a spot in the back of the center to run cables through. This one has a larger range of movement than the Branch Duo.

This newly-launched standing desk just arrived at my doorstep recently, and I finally got a chance to set it up. It was pretty easy (there aren’t many parts). The motors are a little louder than I expected but I love the four-legged design. Fully used to make one like this called the Fully Nolan, but it was discontinued after Herman Miller bought the company. Now Branch has a version, and it’s truly significantly nicer-looking than most two-legged standing desks. There are three height presets, and it can lift 225 pounds (static weight load is much higher). Like all of Branch’s standing desks, it has a 10-year warranty.

Other Good Deals

Well, whaddya know. I’m not the only one who likes Branch. My colleague Boutayna Chokrane retested a bunch of laptop stands recently and came away thinking that Branch’s Adjustable Laptop Stand is indeed the best for most folks. It lifts your laptop up 7 inches, and you can adjust it to nearly any viewing angle. It doesn’t wobble and looks great. It’s a little tough to adjust, but that’s also what keeps it so stable and reliable.

An easy way to add more outlets to your desk setup, this Branch accessory clamps directly to the desk. I used it for a while at my desk and have now repurposed it for my tool closet to keep all my power tools charged up (it’s clamped to a shelf). It looks attractive and offers three outlets as well as a USB-C and USB-A. This accessory is UL-certified and it has a 6-foot cord which should be long enough to run to the wall.

I recently got this filing cabinet to test and it looks very attractive. It’s also the perfect length up top for my desktop gaming PC. It was easy to assemble and mine had no damage in transit. There’s only one lock but it secures both drawers. Both are spacious and I like the little organization at the top for pens and other stationery.

I’ve been using these lockers for close to a year. They’re flat-pack metal containers that arrive in sheets, and you bend certain parts to connect them all. It might sound flimsy but they’ve held up exceptionally well and don’t sound like they’re about to fall apart. (Installation is easy, just takes some time.) I currently have three kinds: Standard, Lowdown, and Midi Lockers. One is holding all my vinyl and has heavy speakers and a turntable on top. Another is keeping my camera gear out of sight, and the third is just miscellaneous storage. They’re pretty (and come in a range of colors). Oh, and easy to clean too.

You need to make sure you have desk space before you buy this caddy. It’s huge! If you do, it can replace all your existing containers. Toss in your pens, notebooks, stick notes, and more. It’s a statement on a desk, so don’t keep it hidden away.
