After getting tired of my clunky, design-barren particleboard computer desk, I finally chose some high end Ikea office furniture. It is beautiful! It is built to last! Just keep in mind that Ikea offers furniture for any budget, and they pretty much follow "you get what you pay for". How much are they paying you?
