Based on what they did last year and what they’ve done in previous years, here’s what we’re expecting from Humanscale’s upcoming Black Friday 2025 sale; from when it’ll likely start to what kind of deals might be available, what specific items are worth watching, and what to be cautious about when shopping.
Expected Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates
Humanscale typically doesn’t wait until Black Friday itself to start their sale. In 2024, they launched the event a little over a week before Thanksgiving. So if they follow the same pattern, we’ll likely see the sale kick off on Wednesday, November 19, 2025.
Once it starts, it usually runs through Cyber Monday, which falls on Monday, December 1, 2025 this year. Just keep in mind that stock is often limited, especially on the most popular items, and once something sells out, it’s typically gone until after the holiday season.
What Kind of Deals to Expect
If they stick with the same offer structure as in 2024, we’ll likely see a flat 20% off sitewide discount at humanscale.com, available through a promo code. Last year, the code was FESTIVE20, and it applied to nearly everything on their site.
Here’s what that 20% applied to in 2024, and what will probably be included again this year:
-
Ergonomic task chairs (including their popular Freedom and Diffrient chairs)
-
Sit/stand desks
-
Task lighting
-
Monitor arms
-
Keyboard systems
-
Foot rockers
-
Various ergonomic office accessories
They also usually throw in free shipping on orders shipping within the continental U.S. and Canada, along with a 30-day risk-free return policy. These perks can make a big difference, especially for big-ticket furniture items.
Are There Any Exclusions?
Yes, but they’re not always obvious upfront. While the sitewide sale generally covers most of their products, some custom configurations, specialty finishes, or already-discounted bundles might be excluded. Also, products that are temporarily out of stock may not be eligible for the promo, even if they’re listed.
It’s always a good idea to check the fine print on their promotion terms page once the sale is live. That’s where they’ll spell out any exclusions.
Sample Discounts From Last Year
To get an idea of what specific savings might look like in 2025, here are a few examples from the 2024 sale:
