Hi,

Without breaking competitor rules, can someone please point me in the direction where you can get good computer tables, ideally single level rectangle ones that are sturdy.

thanks

what about the blue & yellow branded Swedish flat pack furniture store?

Could be wrong but I'm pretty sure you can link stuff from there on here.

The ikea ones look a bit naff, I'm looking for something a bit more quality

Think others have been getting a worktop and laying it on the 2 Alex storage units.

Just had a look at a few of these with a bit of googling - Looks like a bloody good idea to me. Would get you a very solid desk for £150ish easily.

I'm just about to do this as well.

Dog approves too.

I hate desks with square edges! I used to get a sore patch just below my right elbow when it rested when I was using my mouse (long hours over an extended period).

When I last replaced my desktop I managed to get one with a rolled edge and my elbow thanks me for it.

I'd take a router to that front edge and put a decent radius on it and then refinish as necessary.

Lumeycom · 6 Aug 2016 at 08:46

It's never bothered me but I could see why it would. You wouldn't be able to radius the front edge as its pretty much bog standard worktop so veneered

What one did you go for? I am going to go with the Alex draws and worktop for new office build. Seems ideal. No one is actually fixing it down either are they, just resting it on top?
