Herman Miller Black Friday 2025 Sale – What to Expect & When

If you’re keeping an eye on Herman Miller’s Black Friday Sale in 2025, it’s usually a sitewide discount event that runs from mid-November through early December, covering Black Friday and Cyber Monday along the way. Herman Miller doesn’t change much year to year when it comes to their Black Friday offers. Here’s what we’re predicting this year.


Predicted Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates

The 2025 Black Friday Sale will likely begin on Monday, November 17, 2025. That’s the Monday before Thanksgiving week — and it’s been the kickoff point in the past. The sale usually runs for a little over two weeks, so this year, you can expect it to end on Wednesday, December 3, 2025, or while supplies last (that’s 2 days after Cyber Monday).

In 2024, they also ran a Pre-Holiday Sale in early November. If that happens again, there could be a chance to shop deals even earlier, maybe during the first half of November.


Likely Discounts and Promo Details

The standard Black Friday deal at Herman Miller is 25% off most items. It’s a flat, across-the-board discount on eligible furniture, lighting, and accessories. That means no coupons, no codes — just automatic markdowns during the sale period. It typically applies both in-store and online at at hermanmiller.com, and includes their sister brand Design Within Reach (DWR) as well.

Here’s what the official terms looked like last year, and they’ll likely be about the same this year:

  • 25% off merchandise (excludes gift cards, taxes, shipping)

  • Not valid on past purchases

  • Cannot be combined with other discounts or promotions

  • Some product exclusions may apply

  • Offer may end or change at any time

That 25% off discount might not sound huge if you’re used to big-box retailers doing 50% or more, but for Herman Miller — where many items cost well over $1,000 — it makes a real difference. Especially considering how rarely their core products go on sale.


Free Shipping

Free shipping is typically included during the Black Friday event. That applies to both large items (like chairs or sofas) and smaller accessories. For oversized or custom items, shipping times might vary, but the cost is usually waived.


Discount Examples from Last Year

If you’re curious about how the 25% off translated in 2024, here are some specific examples from last year’s Black Friday pricing. These can help you set expectations for 2025.

  • Aeron Chair: $956.25 to $1755.00 (was $1275 to $2340)

  • Embody Chair: $1372.50 to $1728.75 (was $1830 to $2305)

  • Sayl Chair: $551.25 to $1023.75 (was $735 to $1365)

  • Cosm Chair, Mid Back: $1020 to $1376 (was $1360 to $1835)

  • Mirra 2 Chair: $817.50 to $1230.00 (was $1090 to $1640)

  • Embody Gaming Chair: $1496.25 (was $1995)

  • Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman: $4046.25 to $7496.25 (was $5395 to $9995)

  • Eames Soft Pad Chair, Management Height: $2171.25 to $3251.25 (was $2895 to $4335)

  • Noguchi Table: $1721.25 to $1946.25 (was $2295 to $2595)

  • Jarvis Bamboo Standing Desk, Rectangle: $596.25 to $873.75 (was $795 to $1165)

  • Nelson Saucer Bubble Pendant: $296.25 to $971.25 (was $395 to $1295)

  • Eames Hang-It-All: $183.75 to $258.75 (was $245 to $345)

  • Lispenard Sofa: $3896.25 to $6071.25 (was $5195 to $8095)

These weren’t clearance prices or limited offers — just the standard 25% discount applied across the board during the sale window.


What Might Be Excluded

As with past years, not everything is guaranteed to be included. Gift cards are always excluded, and certain high-end or made-to-order pieces might not qualify. Custom fabrics or finishes may also be excluded from the discount or have extended lead times.

Other exclusions might include:

  • New product launches

  • Limited edition items

  • Items already marked as “final sale” or “clearance”

It’s a good idea to check the fine print on any product page when the sale goes live.
