i'm pretty sure i have a different version of the credenza - maybe it's older or from a different line, but it looks almost identical. got it for $50 off CL - dude who i got it from said he paid a few hundred originally

it's really nothing special, and the overall quality/material used/the way it assembles isn't that great either

eg before i got a mousepad, the heat/moisture from my hand warped the table where my hand rested, and the fake wood film separated from the inside of the corner piece - so in that area there's a small pocket where the corner piece meets the rest of the desk

mine are like this

That is a gorgeous kitchen my friend. I wonder who is lucky enough to have that. If I had the money though I would get a marble slab right in the middle of a counter top somewhere and have it chilled.

Marble countertops are my favorite.


Same.

I want this in my house.

Me neither...too...plain, and you'd see all the cables....so, I ordered these instead.  The Hutch has to be raised 2 inches to accommodate the Dell U3011...I'm thinking 1" thick x 2" tall polished solid aluminum, along the back and down each side  ???

NTY. I like the leg room of my super desk. Needs more back sided leg room.

Quote (Ghot @ 1 Mar 2013 00:33)
Then don't buy one  :)  ??


I live in a small apt.  need the storage.


/e  Comp is NOT going in right side comp compartment. It's staying right where it is on a fireproof 3 drawer file cabinet.

Credenza and Hutch will go right where comp desk is in this drawing.
