Originally posted by chef View Postthe price yes, but I like the design or atleast it's sort of in the right direction of enough space for 2 monitors with a seperate area for writing but it is a bit "executive/director/head of a large multi national corporation" ishHard Brexit now!

Originally posted by sasguru View PostWell I'm more practical - as someone noted a desk is just a big flat surface. Not worth paying too much for. Whereas a chair affects you mentally amd physically so worth coughing up for that.
- a desk needs to be big enough for your requirements but also not look out of place in the space its in
- the correct height to fit your desired chair
- the correct depth so that it can fit the monitors / keyboard etc and not feel too cramped.
- you're unlikely to buy many work desks in your life and so it should also be of a style that isnt going to look dated a few years down the line
- the material should ideally fit its surroundings i.e a dark mahogany desk isn't going to look very good surrounded by pine bookshelves
- it needs to be sturdy and not fall to bits in a year
lots of things to think aboutThe proud owner of 125 Xeno Geek PointsComment

Alternatively you're a tosser with more money than brains and they saw you coming. Although even if you were a pauper you'd still have more money than brains...
