New Table/Desk - Not workstation style.

PermaChanged · 28 Feb 2011 at 21:33

Hey all,

I'm looking for a new desk/table for my computer.

I want one which has monitor, keyboard and mouse etc all on one level rather than having a slide out tray, but 99% of the desks I've found have things on different levels.

Budget is a max of £200 which includes delivery, must be about 1200/700/750mm (w/d/h) and either a light oakish wood colour or black glass with chromey bits.

Please spec me!

This is the sort of thing I'm after but it's too small, to expensive and I'm not a fan of the walnut. http://www.furnitureinfashion.net/product_info.php?products_id=8749

Not any specific help, but I just use an old dining table for my computer stuff - plenty of room and a good height, but it might dominate a smaller room.

if you are looking for pretty cheap, something like this?

this is more of a desk (has cable tidy) and a bit more expensive

Go to ikea, find a desk top and select some legs for it. Sorted

I've got a black glass desk from the place with the purple shirts called a serano not sure if they do them but it's great took me a while to find it mind you as all the ones they had "in stock" were being used as staff desks....

Sorry, I forgot to mention I can't get Ikea products, they won't deliver to Guernsey and there is no Guernsey store unfortunately.

habitat do seperate tops / legs - youd be able to get your black glass / wood / metal combo

eddison do ten sizes afaik, you have to be more specific mm-size, not exactly at home in a desk thread though

Yes Ikea or your local wood merchants.

You really want something of corporate/office quality, as all the ikea level stuff is really crappy.

I got mine from these people. There's loads of other office furniture suppliers on the net..... just browse their websites and you're sure to find something of decent quality.

IIRC larger B&Q stores have a selection of table tops and legs to choose from
