What is a cushion top on a mobile pedestal and do I need one?

A cushion top is a padded upholstered panel that sits on top of the pedestal, turning it into an auxiliary seat for visitors or a footrest for the workstation user. Cushion tops are popular in dense open-plan offices where visitor seating is limited, and in creative or collaborative environments. They add nominal cost but significantly increase the functional versatility of the pedestal. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, cushion tops are available for most mobile pedestal lines — call 1-800-460-0858 to confirm compatibility with a specific model.
