Written by the company

At Branch, we make it easy for people and teams to build a beautiful workspace where you can feel and work your best. When it comes to high-quality office furniture, the issue is middlemen. Buying from traditional furniture dealers means navigating unclear pricing, complicated options, and markups up to 50%. There’s also no way for your office to adapt as your team grows: your furniture, your problem. That’s why we founded Branch: to make it easy for people and teams to create inspiring offices. We sell direct, so our collection costs half as much as premium furniture of comparable quality, and design our products with your well-being and work day in mind. If you're a team, we provide end-to-end service: space design, delivery, white glove installation, even the ability to trade in used furniture when you move or grow. We believe it’s a better approach to the way we work today.

DOESN'T POST NEGATIVE REVIEWS AND THE CHAIR IS UNCOMFORTABLE

My company bought 3 of the ergonomic chairs based on my recommendation. The chairs are uncomfortable and have several negatives (arms don't lock in place, seat base tips forward, lumbar is to low). I wrote a review and submitted it, however it never showed up on their site. If you make a good product you shouldn't have to delete negative reviews, go buy a Steelcase or Haworth chair if you want quality or go to office depot because this chair is as comfortable as a $99 ones they sell.

Good Afternoon Mike,

Thank you so much for reaching out! I'm so sorry for any confusion caused here. We post every single review - good and bad. Before we post, though, we like to give ourselves and the customer a chance to make things right, which is why we reach out first.

Regarding the substance of your review, we would genuinely love to help, whether that means offering adjustment and setup guidance or facilitating a return. If you would like to discuss this further with us and let us help get you seated more comfortably, please reach out to our team at hello@branchfurniture.com as we would love to help you any way we can :)

Do not buy a chair from Branch if you want any customer service

I thought this American company would be stellar as they have a nice website and glowing reviews. Well I wrote a 1 star review and they did not post it. Here is my experience.

I purchased an office chair with the extended post for extra height in the chair. They delivered the chair without the extended post which arrived two weeks later. I assembled the chair with the short post and when the long post arrived, I was unable to remove the short post.

No phone number to call customer service. You send an email and they respond to you two days later. Branch customer service told me to buy a rubber mallet to remove the seat post and sent me a video on how to remove it. After purchasing a rubber mallet and whacking the hell out of the chair it still would not dislodge. Branch created this mess. They could have shipped the chair with the extended post. Back and fourth 4-6 times emailing customer service for a solution and they told me to hire a handy man to remove it. Sure let me spend more money on your mess up.

This company also offered to refund the cost of the mallet but they only gave me $20. How tight can you be? I spent 3-4 hours trying to remove the short post and over $50 and you only give me a lousy $20?

Amazing customer service, actual personalized help

Best customer service team I have ever dealt with. Took the time to offer me multiple solutions when I had a damaged item and offered to meet with me 1:1 to help troubleshoot over video just in case the issue was something that could be easily resolved.

When we found out a replacement part was needed it was sent out before the call ended and was delivered a few days later. Hands down the easiest warranty process ever.

For reference, I was replied to the same day I sent in my message, and by the end of the day, a solution was already figured out. I feel like every company should take notes.

First off they have no phone number in…

First off they have no phone number in Toronto to call. They have a link to leave an audio message to no avail. All I want is some info on a chair I would like to buy. How can you possibly deal with a company with no phone number, let alone after sale service like warranty. Caveat Emptor

Shipped an incomplete chair

Shipped an incomplete chair, sent a replacement part that didn’t fit either. And now they’re saying they don’t even have any of the correct part and I need to exchange the entire chair (I no longer want anything from this company). Branch does not seem capable of shipping a complete piece of furniture.

Stylish chair and great customer service!

Finally a CS team that actually cares! They take the time to read your email, answer all your questions (sad that this is something to celebrate haha), and work towards an actual solution instead of stiff arming you with policies and then ghosting you. The consultation person was also super helpful in helping me choose a chair and was actually honest about his recommendations instead of just getting me to buy the most expensive one.

Fine up until you need to deal with customer service. I was promised a refund amount and later was told when I followed up that there were small font never mentioned. Spent hours resolving an issue of their refund system not refunding a promotion code.

Thanks so much for reaching out! I'm so sorry about this, but we are unable to stack discount codes, and after reviewing our correspondence, we could see that our agent was providing you with the greater of the two discount codes available at the time.

If you would like to reach back out to us, we would be more than happy to assist you here, and provide you with the greater of the two discount codes :)

Thank you, and we look forward to assisting you further!

Very good product, great customer service

I am very happy with the comfort and aesthetic of my Branch ergonomic chair. It arrived with a minor flaw in the base, but Austin from the customer success team was extremely helpful - communicating clearly and promptly and offering me solutions.

Ergonomic Chair & Austin J rocks!!

I love my Ergonomic chair and when I had an issue Austin J. was a godsend. He was prompt, curtious, articulate and resolved my problem quickly.

I can't say enough good things about this company and their products.

Do not waste your money

Do not waste your money. I spent over $431 on the soft side chair. It's literally a peace of garbage. When you look at the chair with the pretty leather, it looks beautiful. Other than the leather, the chair is junk. There is zero lumbar support. Within the first hour of sitting in the chair, my lumbar spine was throbbing. There is zero padding on the seat cushion. I felt like I had been sitting on a board. Do not buy from this company. When I complained and told them I wanted to return the chair, they told me I would have to pay for the shipping to return it. To pay for the shipping with a box that large will be well over $100-$200 to ship it back. Not to mention, you have to assemble this chair on your own. The arms are a complete nightmare to install. It took me over 40 minutes on my own to install the arms. You need two people to do it. In total it took me an hour to assemble this chair. For a $400 chair, it needs to come already put together. Take it from me, pictures can be deceiving. If you are going to buy a chair, go sit in them. Just because the chair looks amazing in a photo it doesn't mean it will be comfortable. I made the mistake of reading wonderful reviews and I don't know where all of these people are coming from unless they don't mind sitting on a chair that is as hard as a rock.

Thanks so much for reaching out! I'm so sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with the quality of your new Softside Chair! If you are looking for a chair with a dedicated lumbar support, I encourage you to check out our Verve or Ergonomic Chairs, both of which have targetted, adjustable lumbar supports. Our Softside Chair is also designed with a thick padding, and a layer of springs to offer maximum comfort - I'm so sorry it was ultimately not a good fit for you.

To process a return, we only charge a flat-rate fee of $35. If you would like to return your chair, please reach out to us and we would be more than happy to assist :)

Our school sites love the Branch Daily Chair!

Our school sites love the Branch Daily chair! We only use this brand for our teacher and staff chairs because they give comfort and great ergonomic support. We have ordered many over the past three years and they are all still in great shape and are easy to keep clean and looking new.

Terrible customer service

Terrible customer service - avoid at all costs

I purchased 2 chairs from Branch. In one of the orders they sent the wrong color out - mistakes of course happen, but their response was to make me sort the return without any real support (aside from a label), and wait 1 month for the correct item

I would not trust their service again

Thank you so much for sharing your review with us, and I'm so sorry about your experience with us thus far! We have issued a brand new Headrest to replace the wrong color Headrest that was sent, and processed a return label so we can get the wrong color Headrest returned to us, as well as provided a discount for the inconvenience here :)

Purchased six ergonomic chairs...Happy customer!

I have purchased a total of six ergonomic chairs for our company and am happy with the quality and comfort of the chairs. I'm sure I'll be purchasing another six as we build our team! The ergonomic chairs are easy to adjust and give good lumbar support if properly positioned. They are also an attractive addition to our office, where we previously had mismatched chairs. Delivery was quick and painless.

Poor Quality, Dissatisfied

I purchased an Ergonomic Chair from Branch Furniture in September 2023. It is a comfortable chair however just after a couple of months it started piling extensively and looking just ugly. I submitted a claim and quickly learned that not only pilling is not covered by warranty but also got an advise: "you can avoid any further pilling by ensuring that you're sitting with your legs hanging at a 90-degree angle, and feet flat, flush on the ground to ensure there is no extra pressure being applied to the seat that would result in further rubbing from your pants to the seat". SERIOUSLY!
Branch did not propose any acceptable solution to my problem.

Thank you so much for sharing your review with us, Wojtek! I'm so sorry about this, but our warranty does not cover pilling or cosmetic damage, as pilling is not due to the quality of the fabric, but is in fact due to natural fiber migration. We recommend a defuzzer, or fabric pilling comb to remove any existing pills that should prevent it from getting any worse, and apologize that we cannot be of any further assistance here. You may also reach out to our team at any time if you would like to discuss this further over live chat, or our contact us form, and thank you again for your feedback!

Garbage and scam

Please reconsider this purchase based on personal experience. I suggest checking out reviews on Trustpilot and other websites where there are many negative comments. The customer support was unsatisfactory. My desk arrived almost four weeks late, and to make matters worse, it malfunctioned, repeatedly displaying errors 07/08. It was very disappointing.

I have reviewed your correspondence with my colleague, and can see that they have replied to your support request with the solution to the 07/08 error you're seeing on your Handset. We will have this experience turned around for you momentarily!

If i could give a negative star review…

If i could give a negative star review I would. I ordered a office chair today. No shipping or delivery details were provided until the order was complete. The shipping was a month away and thus not suitable for my needs. Using Branch's website it became clear to me that there was no way to speak to anyone. I tried their chat feature but all it did was bring op an offer for discount to refer future customers (not at all likely). I sent them 2 emails requesting a cancellation of this order and to contact me. 3 hours later I have confirmed the charge from Branch on my card but ZERO response from Branch. Deal with them at your own risk and good luck!

Good Afternoon! I'm so sorry for the confusion here! It looks like my colleague replied to your cancellation request a few hours after requesting the cancellation and refunded you in full. Please note that we charge your card right away as we are holding your place in line as the chair as we await more chairs in your desired colorway to reach our warehouse. Once again I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience, and if you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to reach back out to us at hello@branchfurniture.com :)

Bad Purchase Experience No Customer Contact

Purchase 1 chair and didn't get an email order confirmation or shipping/tracking status so I didn't think the order went thru and order another. Well, the first chair finally showed up and without the headrest I ordered with it and now I'm waiting to try and cancel the second chair but CAN'T GET THRU TO ANYONE LIVE AT BRANCH FURNITURE! All the phone number that come up for a compnay search are NO GOOD and I've tried emailing and sending messages on their website but have yet to get reply! So disappointed to do business with BRANCH and won't do business with them again once I resolve this!

Good Afternoon Colleen, thank you so much for reaching out! After reviewing your correspondence with my colleague, it would appear your order confirmation did not arrive as it's not uncommon for our emails to not past get past company work email filters. I would also like to note that our Headrests do not ship with our chairs, but always ship separately with separate shipping lead times. If you would ever like to reach out to us right away, I encourage you to click on the live chat button found on the bottom right side of the home page as this will connect you with one of our helpful agents within 40 seconds, between the hours of 9 am and 6 pm EST Monday to Friday. We do not do any suppot over the phone as we're quite a small company and find email and live chat the best ways to reach more customers in a shorter amount of time :)

Worst office chair ever

Worst office chair ever. I purchased mine a couple of years ago and have regretted it ever since. The lumbar "support" is just awful. Uncomfortable and impossible to adjust. I eventually just took it out and put a pillow behind my back.

And now the mesh back is ripping out from the rest of the chair.

So a $300+ chair which is uncomfortable, made with cheap components, and only lasted 2 years.
