Need a decent computer desk - Suggestions?

Ingenious TROLL · 10 Jun 2013 at 11:50

Morning guys,

Can anyone recommend a decent, sturdy computer desk?

Ideally, with room under the desk so you aren't confined to just squeezing under with your chair.

I'm open to suggestions that people have bought as I am going mad trying to find a suitable desk.

Reasonable budget, around £100-£150.

I've looked at Ikea lol - Couldn't see anything I liked too much..

This is the IKEA Jonas, you can remove the sliding under part too. Have had it for 7 years now I think

Another for Ikea Jonas, has a nice cable management part to it now aswell

Although means you cant push your PC case further back.

Anyone got a link to the Jonas desk? There's not a Jonas on the Ikea site any more - Similar looking ones though..

Self build tbh. Everything else is crap.

I just have this solid oak writers desk, only issue with it is theres not much leg room as theres drawers on either side. No room for 3 24" screens either

Ikea Pragel kitchen worktop, £30. 246 x 62 cm.

Get some cheap legs, put a brace on a wall, or buy some filing cabinets to support the weight and you've got a massive desk to play with.

Mine is coming on Friday and it will replace another "proper" Ikea desk.

I've got that but with a black top instead.

Thats what it looks like with a 24 inch monitor and a MASSIVE mouse mat

I would say if you are on a very slim budget for £55 the Ikea Besta desk is nice. No drawers but decent area for cables etc. They also do a couple of Malm ones (That look like the Jonas ones) the one with drawers for £125 should do the job well but not sure if it has cable management but ikea also sell the trays that you can fit on the back of the unit to keep cables tidy

I had that ikea thing and it was crap and made of cardboard inside it. It started to bow down in the middle and then one day it just got smashed up in rage, thats when i noticed it was full of honeycomb style cardboard.

I have the Fredrik desk, had it for a while now. Fantastic desk.

I bought my desk from gumtree second hand for £30. Its probably worth about £180. An ex office style desk, metal L shaped legs with pine top and cable management holes at 1mx60cm perfect size desk for me.

Bought and assembled this from amazon -

I'l see if I can take a pic of my table with everything on it later (downstairs on laptop and feeling lazy

)

that thing above looks awful.

I've got some big ikea thing, adjustable height on the legs and massive flat surface, what else?

The Linnmon range at IKEA is pretty good for the price.

I got my PC desk from John Lewis

.

They do (or previously had) some really good desks.
