Interior Motions

My back was mighty tired of 8 hrs/​day in my home office’s dining room chair. Time for something supportive and comfortable — that will last. I checked out options at the big box stores: very flashy and soft imported chairs that felt like they’d be in pieces or perhaps at the Goodwill within about a year of use.
I went to Interior Motions — a low key, helpful guy helped me after I had checked out many attractive high end chairs on display — along with plenty of other quality office furniture items.
For a bit more $ vs the big box, I’m now seated in the finest quality Herman Miller stylish and amazingly comfortable chair — with a 12 year warranty!
Great resource here for any professional furniture needs.

These guys are great. I needed a chair fixed and they did it while I waited. They seem to have a great selection of slightly used office furniture and are incredibly nice and helpful.

First the good: They have a great selection of floor merchandise at a great price — certainly lower than their competitors. If you find something you like there, you will have found a great deal.
Just don’t try and order anything custom from them. I ordered a custom desk chair (fabric/​color) and paid an up-​charge for the customization accordingly. When the chair was delivered, it was a basic floor model (grey vinyl), and not what I had ordered. I was offered that chair as a «loaner» until my custom order came in. To this day it has not been provided, and they never refunded the difference in cost between basic floor model and what I had ordered. Excuses have been odd as to why they hadn’t provided it. To be fair, they offered to take their «loaner chair» back for a refund, but by that point (three months after I placed my order, and after 3 – 4 exchanges with their sales people), I had gotten rid of my old chair. So to return their chair would have meant being without one for some period of time and using a straight-​backed chair as an office chair — not acceptable for my BF’s bad back!
In short, this company isn’t very organized or very professional, and they over-​charged me — but if you are willing to buy from them immediately what they have in stock, you can find some great bargains. Maybe they just aren’t set up to provide to individual customers, just corporate accounts. I don’t know. I just know my experience was unacceptable, and I would not recommend them.

Bought a nice Herman Miller Reaction chair for $ 100. Looks clean and gently used; much better than any new $ 300 Office Depot chair. Would recommend.

Our office ordered chairs in March. To this day they have not arrived AND despite repeated emails and voicemails, they have not replied to our request for chairs or a refund. Six months-​half of a year– has transpired without concern from the business to rectify this situation. This is completely unacceptable, especially considering we are a school without the resources to spend money elsewhere until we are provided a refund– or better yet– just give us the chairs we ordered!

Did a great job fixing Aeron chair — while you wait service to replace busted cylinder and touch up paint — good as new for $ 105. Oz and the outlet guys rock. Great selection of used chairs too. Highly recommend.

Interior Motions is fantastic! We purchased three Herman Miller Aeron chairs there yesterday and it couldn’t have been a better experience. The manager, Oz, is honest, knowledgeable, friendly, and truly somebody that we hope to do business with again and again as we grow our company.
Overall, we got a great deal on some very well maintained chairs (they are one of the few authorized Herman Miller service centers in California) and had a terrific shopping experience.
We will definitely be back soon.

I took my Aeron chair in to have the gas piston replaced. The service was great. I got a reasonable estimate and they fixed it the same day! The work was perfect and now I have a like-​new chair! Highly recommended, there’s no place else in the area that can fix Aerons or that sells these high end chairs.

Thanks Stefanie H. — you were totally right. I just picked up an excellent used Steelcase Leap Ergonomic office chair at a fraction of what it would have been new and my back is so happy! You’re right it’s not cheap Office Max stuff; but quality furniture for the office, and they had some great prices on used Herman Millers.
I was really impressed with this place. They have a great selection of new and used office furniture for any budget. I walked away with my new chair but plan to be back for one of their electronic height adjusting desks. Man are they ever slick.

Jennifer is a great resource if you are looking for new or used office furniture. She is very experienced and is always focused on the client’s best interest.

We are opening a new location for our business in Hayward, CA. We walked in and OSMIN aka «OS» was super friendly and really worked with us on the items we wanted to purchase. The used office furniture we purchased was quality and the delivery persons on time, quick and super friendly.
Not only would we shop here again for our business furniture needs, but I would recommend this outlet for high quality office chairs and executive desks. They even have some very modern looks if that is what you are looking for in your office!
Thanks Interior Motions!

I have owed these guys — and one of these guys in particular — a review for longer than I’d care to admit.
«Owed?» you might ask, «But why?»
Well, because Os put me in a great chair at a great price, but not before he’d turned me away one day so I could sit in something he didn’t have in stock yet before I’d made up my mind and spent my money. That’s customer service at its best.
Truly a pleasure dealing with Interior Motions. As a self-​professed «chair nerd,» it was nice to run into someone of the same ilk who was willing to help me find exactly what I needed, and put me on to some chairs that I hadn’t even heard of.
So, in summary, give these folks your money. They’ll put you in a good chair cheaper than you’ll be able to find it elsewhere and they’ll entertain even your weirdest questions. Best of all, they’ll know every chair you mention and have an opinion about it. Not something you’ll find at an Office Depot, or even at other Herman Miller retailers I’ve visited. A cut above.

After searching all day at other office/​furniture stores for new & used desks and storage for my office, we found Interior Motions on Google Maps on the iPhone because we were in the area and ready to give up for the day. We got in the store about 10 minutes before closing and found EXACTLY what we had been looking for all day! We weren’t rushed out the door at closing but instead had a delightful conversation with the store manager. Got a killer deal on a top of the line design item and it was delivered the next day. Can’t say enough about our experience and we’ll be back for more!

If you’re looking to score a deal on used high-​end office furniture, this is the place to go. True, you’ll still spend more than at somewhere like Office Max or Office Depot — but if you’re looking for Herman Miller or similar quality stuff and you don’t want to pay full price, you’ll love Interior Motions.
Unlike a lot of used office furniture places, this place is clean and reasonably stylish. The salespeople are knowledgeable and friendly, but they don’t hover and drive you nuts.
Parking nearby was easy and free on a Saturday afternoon, though I don’t know if the area gets more crowded on weekdays.

I have very mixed feelings towards in Interior Motions. When you make a $ 6,000 purchase you would expect to have a long term reltionship with the vendor. I called Interior Motion (Mark) and tried to order 2 new cubicles, 25% of our original purchase, including install. Mark did not have the matching items in stock and said he needed to send his local sales rep to our office to view the scope of the job. I thought this was a great idea. Mark was not able to give me a price over the phone and I did not feel very comfortable he was going to deliver at a decent price because he was going to have to refabric another cubicle to match our current cubicle. I said to send a guy out and I would continue to look around. Once I said that his attitude completely changed. He said he would not take the time to send a guy out if I was going to look around and he hung up on me.
If you are a business owner or a consumer you are crazy not to feel out the market. This is all part of business and I gave Mark the first opportunity as we have used his business in the past. Mark was going to have the final option to gain our business and with our company continuing to grow, future business
I wish you the best Mark but if you are only chasing the big fish then I wish you the best of luck. All customers must be treated equally, you never know where the opportunity may lead you…
Now off to my research.

Two words: Caveat Emptor. Ask lots of questions about what you’re buying and specify exactly in what condition you are expecting it to arrive, because there are no returns and no exchanges, so if you’re unhappy with something they don’t care.
When we arrived at their outlet, we said we were looking for «secure storage» and «cabinets that locked.» We were shown one or two that fit our criteria – in that they *can* be locked. Turns out they don’t come with the keys, so we can’t actually lock them. One could argue that it’s an issue of semantics, and I should have asked to be shown items that DO lock, but it really seems like they could have disclosed that.
Also, we were told a cabinet we bought would be «cleaned up» before it was delivered. When it arrived, it was even filthier than it was when we saw it in the warehouse. The first thing I said when I saw it was, «This was supposed to have been cleaned!» The driver claimed it was «dirt from the truck.» Oddly, I got three paper towels’ worth of grime off it and when we opened the drawers they were full of papers and books, so there is no way they had opened them to clean them out.
I called Oz to complain and he said, «Well, my guys say they cleaned it out.» Sounds to my like Oz’s «guys» aren’t exactly being truthful, but his attitude was, «Whatever.» You know what? He has our money so he can afford to be that way!

What a fantastic company and a great team! With very short notice I was able to get great prices on furniture for a new office, have the items delivered and set-​up! I did some shopping on prices and Interior Motions has the best price and a great selection.
On install day, the team came out and installed the furniture exactly how I had envisioned it and they set everything up faster than anticipated.
Just an all around great experience. Thanks!

If you are looking for the cheapest office furniture you can find, this is not the place for you. The used office chairs rarely dip under $ 100, and you could easily find a new chair from staples, office depot, costco, etc. If you’re a business owner with a bigger budget, or a homeowner looking for used «designer» chairs, this is your place. There are a ton of conference tables, desks, and office chairs.

Great selection of office furniture, especially chairs. With knowledgeable staff to help you choose. Discounted from what you would pay on Herman Miller’s website, but not really huge discounts on discontinued or used furniture.
I bought a fancy, ergonomic chair for my home office to help stave off the monthly massages I needed from too much computer work. The downside is that it has taken 2 months to arrive. The upside is that they lent me a floor model to use during the wait.

Outlet? Me thinks not! At least I was expecting «outlet» prices and that I did not find.
I came here looking for two side chairs for my humble office. Saw two different chairs that would work, each for $ 99. Cha-​ching??? Tried to negotiate a lower price and that didn’t work. This place certainly is not for the small business owner unless you have cash to burn.
