Desk Collapse

[ZERO]

SO after about 10 years of service my nice wood desk finally collapsed. Luckily nothing was on it at the time but basically the support beam ripped out of the left side which had become weak from moving it back home.

Anyone got any suggestions as to where to look for a new desk. I need something in wood that has a wide keyboard tray. It also needs to be over 62" long and as deep as possible.

IKEA, where else?

Fuck that. IKEA is garbage. If you ever have to move a desk more than 3 inches you might as well just take a hammer to the thing

get some duct tape and a hammer and do it the mans way!

Too small.

After the furniture industry moved from NC to China it is all crap. I would look on Searchtempest and look for someone who happens to be getting rid of one. Buying a new one that fits those specs is going to be $$$$.

Build your own nice sturdy big desk for ~200$ or be prepared to shell out over 700$ for one that you describe. I assume you mean a SOLID wood canopy type desk. One with a huge monitor space for your CRT, and a few side cupboards. I have searched well for a medium sized desk of about 48 inches, found none under 500 made of solid wood. I actually bought mine from a relative for 100$ wanting to remove it and save space as they only use a laptop now.
