Whether you have a dedicated home office or take calls from the kitchen table, your workspace setup determines how productive (and comfortable) you’ll be for hours and hours, day after day.

Over the past decade, we’ve confetti-ed more than 4,000 sheets of paper to test shredders, written zealously with dozens of pens to suss out ones worthy of your signature, and spent more than 175 collective hours sitting to crown the best office chair. In the end, we found the very best office furniture and supplies for your 9-to-5 — and beyond.
