I'm pretty sure I made the T-rex thing up after trying to find a way to describe the difference between that style and the ones I currently have. Glad you like

Most of the big companies such as Herman Miller, Haworth, Steelcase, Knoll all have online stores where consumers can buy individual items. Those brands also own a bunch of other brands such as Muuto, Hay, Naughtone, turnstone, Coalesse, BuzziSpace, and more which could have some crossover into the home office setting (and can also be shooped for online).
I imagine as the consumer market for home office heats up other brands will figure out how to manufacturer limited lines with limited options for finishes and fabrics so they can be made and shipped more rapidly.
For C9 though, you actually don't need the rail (we have 3 single desks in our office without a rail). While these are more expensive than something you could get elsewhere, they are built like a tank and manufactured to order to the specs you need at a facility in Washington State.
- redelbee 6y agoThis makes total sense and I think you’re onto something with the limited lines/finishes/fabrics for the consumer market in the future. I really appreciate you taking the time to list those companies and I’m definitely going to look into them, although with your experience and what I’ve seen of the C9 it looks hard to beat. I didn’t have a new desk in the budget this year but it might be time for an upgrade!
