Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Decide how your HON conference room tables will be used

Will you be conducting meetings where people need to be face-to-face, or will people seated at the tables be facing forward for training-type activities? Will people be writing or eating at the tables? Will your tables be used only on occasion or every day?

I recommend: For face-to-face meetings, it's best to go with a HON round table from CSN Office Furniture or an oval table from BizChair.com. For training or instructor-led activities, HON's Perpetual Series of tables is a good choice. If your HON conference table and chairs will see a lot of use, you might want to consider a dent, stain- or abrasion-resistant surface like the one available at Staples.

Determine whether your HON conference table will need to fit with others

Some HON conference tables are meant to stand alone, while others are created to be mixed and matched with similar HON tables to create various set-ups and configurations.

I recommend: If your table will be used in an office for small meetings or extra work space, eofficedirect.com and Office Depot both offer classy individual round HON tables. If your HON meeting table will be used with others and will therefore need to fit into different configurations, InstaOffice offers a nice selection of HON training tables.

Consider whether your HON conference table and chairs will need to be mobile

Will your HON table stay put once in place, or will it be moved from place to place, room to room or put in storage when not in use? If you determine that your HON table will need to be easily movable or stored, or you need a folding conference table, HON has tables to fit your need.

I recommend: Office World offers an extensive selection of HON conference room tables, including some on wheels. If your tables need to fold, check out HON's basyx line of economy folding tables at OnTimeSupplies.com.
