Hi guys, I'm trying (and failing) to look for a desk to replace the one I have currently. For the space I have to work with I ideally need a left hand corner desk with a width of no more than 140CM, a depth at the left hand end of around 90 - 120CM (if there is a leg on the end of the left hand curve it cant be more than 90CM from the wall) and preferably a depth in the main/straight part of the desk of around 60CM.

I have been browsing the net, looking at Ikea, trying every combination of desk-tops, table tops, legs, units etc I can find, and even looked at B&Q for work-tops that I could affix legs to, as well as any big eTailer or office supplies place I could think of, but I can't find anything and I can't really make a corner desk with some work-top, and they aren't deep enough either. :(

Visually, I would preferably like a gloss white top (but gloss black, flat white, flat black, brown black wood etc is fine) and I'm not really fussed about the legs.

The only one I have found which fits the bill is this one, which is almost £1000 (LOL :p) http://www.back2.co.uk/ConSet-501-11-2-Legged-L-Shaped-Electric-Desk-140-cm-x-100-cm-p760.html

Don't really want to spend more than £200, preferably less... If I had more room I could have a far larger, good quality desk from Ikea for £140 :(

Any help appreciated!

Ignore, spent 2 hours moving furniture to a less sensible configuration and now I have space for a bigger desk the wrong way round. That'll do. :p
 
I would have made it if it were a square desk, but I'm far too lazy to make a corner desk. Plus the weather hasn't been great recently and I'd have to borrow power tools :p

All set now, will buy that big Ikea corner desk. :)
