About Furmax
Furmax builds for the rooms you actually use
Furmax started in 2016 with one desk chair for the home office. A desk chair is the piece people sit in longest, so it is where we learned what matters: a frame that holds its number, a seat that sits at the right height and arms that do not catch the desk.
From there the range grew room by room. Stackable metal chairs came for dining rooms and patios, then bar stools and pub tables for the kitchen counter. Later came standing desks, sofas, dressers and recliners that rock and swivel. Today there are 63 pieces in 9 departments.
What a piece is made of decides how it lives with you. Our office chairs come in breathable mesh or in PU leather that wipes clean. Dining and bar seats sit on metal frames, bentwood or padded shells, and the stackable metal chairs stack away when the table is cleared. Our futons are faux leather and fold flat into a bed for a guest.
Most designs come in more than one version. Across 63 designs you can choose from 236 versions: colors, sets of two or four, and different sizes. Pick the color for the room and the set for the number of people who sit down at the table each night. A table for four needs a set of four, and a kitchen island may need only two.
Our lightest-rated seat holds 225 lb and our sturdiest holds 650 lb. When two people of different builds share one desk chair, go by the heavier of the two, and leave some room to spare. Check its seat width too, since a wide seat needs a wide gap between the desk legs.
Our standing desks rise on an electric motor, and the control panel stores your sitting and standing heights, so one press takes you from one to the other. Our desk guide walks through the panel codes if a desk ever stops halfway.
A home office needs a chair and a desk that agree on height. A kitchen bar needs stools that match the counter, not the dining table. A living room needs a seat you can lean back in.
Every chair, desk and stool in the range comes with numbers you can check before you buy: a weight limit, a width, depth and height, and for desks the full travel of the top. A chair rated to 300 lb and a stool rated to 225 lb are different tools, and the number tells you which one you need.
Most pieces arrive flat in a box and go together with the tools inside. Larger ones, such as the L-shaped desk, are a two-person job. The instructions are packed with each piece, and our standing desk guide follows the control panel manual line by line.
We also tell you where a piece stops. A mesh chair stays cooler but feels firmer than padded leather. A counter stool sits too low for a bar-height top. A rocker recliner needs room behind it. If a piece is wrong for your room, we would rather you knew before it arrives.
