The best office desks help you work comfortably and securely, whether in the office or at home. Office desks prioritize utility, sticking to conservative colors that blend seamlessly with office environments.
1. Professional Office Hippo Cantilever Desk:
The Office Hippo professional desk is our pick for the best all-rounder. It’s well-built and sturdy, offers a wide range of different sizes, and is reasonably priced. We had one to ourselves and managed the tasks with no problem. The actual desk is 1 inch thick and very sturdy.
Available in various sizes, including a spacious 180cm-wide model, it accommodates two people working side by side with ample space for multiple monitors and a printer or MFP. The smaller 80 cm or 120 cm models are perfect for a desk. The latter is perfect for those who want a lot in a spacious desktop. The depth of the office deck is 80 cm and a lot.
Another great thing worth mentioning is that there are nifty cable management holes at each end of the desk. Satisfied and affordable, highly recommended for its budget-friendly price.
For those in the US unable to find Office Hippo or an affordable shipping option, the Bush Office Desk from Walmart is a great alternative. It features cable management cutouts and a stylish design.
2. Casaottima L-Shaped Desk:
If you need an L-shaped desk to move into a corner (or anywhere), this model sold on Amazon is a great value. Notably, there is a $20 off coupon at the time of writing.
The frame is made of steel and the desk itself is made of MDF. The addition of leveling studs on the feet gives it an extra touch of neatness. This can be adjusted for greater stability even on uneven floors. Sturdy, and responsive to online feedback, this office desk is easy to put together.
Casaottima also comes with a small monitor and speaker shelf that can be mounted on the left or right side of the desk.
Based on customer reviews, perhaps the biggest complaint with this product is the occasional complaint of missing screws or other items. Overall, this L-shaped desk is excellent value for money.
UK buyers won’t be able to get this model, but it can be shipped from the US at a significant cost. A better alternative for UK consumers is the Vasagle L-Desk (opens in a new tab). This is an equally sturdy and popular desk with adjustable legs in the same price range. The Vasagle model also has two shelves under the desk instead of the small monitor shelf.
3. Uplift V2:
Standing desks are motorized so that the desk can be raised or lowered to different heights, allowing you to sit or stand while you work, and the health benefits that come with it.
If you prefer the standing desk route, we recommend the Uplift V2. This office desk oozes quality and is solid and stable, unlike standing desks which can wobble a bit when fully extended to the top level.
Its motorized action is smooth and quiet, it comes in a wide selection of desktop sizes, and it adds some cable management options. All of this is backed by our reliable 7-year warranty and made possible by Uplift V2. Expand the range of customization with a variety of accessories.
Uplift desks are available in standard and commercial versions (more stable thanks to the crossbars). People in the UK can get Uplift delivered, but it’s a good idea to just buy the frame and get your desktop locally (otherwise delivery costs can be exorbitant).
4. Furinno’s Computer Desk:
Furinno makes a lot of desks, but this is an attractive proposition for those who don’t want to part with a lot of cash. Still, you get a solid enough product here, and it’s relatively easy to assemble.
It also provides a very compact computer desk (perfect for those looking to save space). You can place your PC on the right shelf and there is also a slide-out tray for your keyboard and mouse. An extra drawer is also included.
Now, considering Furinno’s recommended price and the reality that most online retailers offer deep discounts compared to the suggested retail price, this is a great buy for those who don’t want to spend too much. . your office desks.
5. IKEA Linmon/Alex:
Anyone wanting a sturdy desk with great storage options should consider turning to IKEA for their needs.
The IKEA Linnmon desk can be freestanding or equipped with Alex drawers (1 or 2) below. If you want maximum storage space, you can expand the pair of drawers located at each end of the desk.
3 large drawers and 2 small drawers, 6 large drawers, and 4 small drawers for a total of 10 drawers. Enough space for small items, documents, folders, and anything else you need. The desk itself is quite spacious at 150cm long x 75cm deep (there is also a smaller 120cm x 60cm version).
You get a great value and quality proposition compared to the asking price. I’ve seen some comments online that the top of the desk might be a bit chipped, but it could also be due to carelessness.
6. Piranha Unicorn Reversible Large Corner Desk:
This is a flexible corner desk whose longest part can be positioned to the left or right depending on your needs (hence the “reversible” meaning of the name). Either way, it offers a very large workspace and is a smart, solidly built piece of furniture. You’ll notice we have a Reversible Corner Desk in Graphite Black (Opens in a new tab) and White Woodgrain (Opens in a new tab) finishes.
7. Mind Reader Home Office Sit-Stand Desk:
Those looking for a space-saving desk (like the model above) in the US should consider the Walmart Mind Reader Multi-Purpose Home Office Sit-Stand Desk (Opens in a new tab). Not only is it easy on your wallet, but as the name suggests, you can manually adjust the height of the desk, so you can sit or stand freely.
