If you’re waiting for a big Cyber Monday event from Herman Miller, you probably won’t see a brand-new sale. Instead, the company tends to let its annual Black Friday promotion roll straight through Cyber Monday. Here’s what we’re expecting to see this year.
Expected Sale Period
Herman Miller’s 2025 sale calendar should look very familiar. Based on recent years, the Black Friday sale is expected to kick off on Monday, November 17, 2025, about a week before Thanksgiving. The promotion generally runs for just over two weeks, which means it will likely wrap up on Wednesday, December 3, 2025 (that’s two days after Cyber Monday).
It’s also worth mentioning that in 2024, Herman Miller ran a Pre-Holiday Sale earlier in November. If that pattern repeats, early shoppers could see markdowns even before the main event starts.
Anticipated Discounts
Year after year, Herman Miller’s main promotion stays consistent: 25% off most items in-stores and at hermanmiller.com. The markdown applies automatically at checkout on eligible furniture, lighting, and accessories (usually no coupon codes needed). The discount usually extends to both Herman Miller and their sister brand Design Within Reach (DWR).
Here’s what the fine print typically includes:
-
25% off qualifying merchandise (excludes gift cards, taxes, and shipping)
-
Not valid on prior purchases
-
Cannot be combined with other promotions or discounts
-
Certain product exclusions may apply
Even though 25% off might sound modest compared to massive discounts from other retailers, the savings are significant given Herman Miller’s premium pricing. For example, a $1,200 chair drops to $900 during the sale, and that can make a big difference on high-end office or home furniture.
Free Shipping
Free shipping is another perk that’s usually part of the event. It applies to both large furniture and smaller accessories, although custom or oversized pieces may have longer delivery windows. Shipping fees are typically waived across the board for the duration of the sale.

These prices weren’t limited-time doorbusters, just the standard 25% discount automatically applied to nearly all eligible products.
Possible Exclusions
While most of Herman Miller’s catalog participates in the event, not everything qualifies. The following items are often left out of the discount:
-
Gift cards
-
New or limited-edition releases
-
Made-to-order pieces or custom finishes
-
Clearance or “final sale” items
Always double-check product pages for the most accurate information once the sale officially launches.
