Cobblers Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Anyone know of any good places that I can purchase a computer table/desk from in the UK? I've got quite a large Tower unit, but was hoping that the desk I buy would be able to incorporate the desktop inside of it. I've had a look around the net, but most appear to be the same...also you can never know what the quality you are buying will be like. Anyone got any ideas?

Pyro_Monty Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Ikea and John Lewis are good choices. I think I'm using an Ikea just now... not certain, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobblers Posted August 24, 2004 Author Share Posted August 24, 2004 I've tried all that has been suggested, and the shame of it is that they don't supply very thorough dimensions.. As I've got a large tower, which is soon going to be sharing a room with two dogs, I was hoping to be able to get a desk that would enable me to cover up the entire machine. That way there's no chance of the components getting blocked up with dog hair. I was hoping for a more specialist shop. But maybe there is any.

At Ikea you get free tape measures so you can be as thorough as you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnumkp Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Got mine from Staples. It's massive (the desk, not staples. Well, staples is big, but I was referring to my desk). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supasniper Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 i think mine's from pc world but i'm not sure cos i was about 10 when we got it, it could be bigger though as my dad bought it for a 15" monitor so my 19" is in one corner so my head's at an angle all the time which is ######ing with my back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 With computer desks I always found that you couldn't beat driving round a few places like MFI etc. There are always sales on and usually somewhere will have an absolute bargain computer table if you are lucky. They are a pain to build up of course, but I've saved a small fortune in the past doing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
