Make the right choice... Nothing nice about having a desk with no room to place your legs under or not enough width for a keyboard and moniter. Also a chair which isn't comfy or is too big or can't be adjusted sucks. Me myself wouldn't be able to function without a high back chair. I don't like having arm rests on a chair as they just get in the way for my elbows to hang down when typing and don't allow for me to push the chair under the desk (Like to have my body about an inch away from the desk any more and it doesn't 'feel' right)
 
i dont know your budget but could try oak furniture land.
I saw some nice things a while ago

that was a silly thing i did! Trying to keep to about £250 budget

I actually really like that old white desk, nice, wide and clean.

thats a Malm from ikea, it was awesome, kept it in the shed, but it got damp and rotted out, so of to the dump it went!

Monitor is actually good, but i do regret the purchase, 1400p is the way forward, apparently LG use the same panel but have a dark finish on the monitor

So whats wrong with another malm, does that not fall under budget?
And its the look of that thing as much as anything it goes with my keyboard and mouse etc ...

Oak

Yeah afraid not!
 
Straight desk? Corner desk? Drawers? Size?

What are you preferences other than it needs to match beech?

man im lacking on the detail today!! apologies!!

something like 1400x650x750mm (WxDxH)

has to be a straight desk, because its on the back wall in the room, like something which has uber legroom

ah i know pcs not wood lol :(

Thats cool, we are all pc people lol ;)

My friend has a desk called Innova, it's really nice, that strip that looks like glass from left to right is L.E.D also. Here is a LINK.

I have a MALM desk from IKEA, here is a picture but it would look nicer with something a little more sleek on there like a 750d?

Oh and this desk of mine in the picture, the dimensions are W-1400 D-650 H-730
