Hey guys,

I'm on the hunt for a new desk. This has proven to be more difficult than I thought as I have looked for a few hours with no luck.

here is my criteria:

- 59+ inches long / around 2 feet deep ( for 3 monitor + PC sideways)
- black in color or paintable to black.
- Price around the $100 mark (am a little flexbile, will flex more if there is any practical benefit)
- not an L desk - space limitation
- not ugly/tacky, I already have a cheap option I am trying to upgrade from.

If anyone has any recommendations or if you have had any luck with desks before I'd be glad to hear it.

Currently, my best looking option is to order a basic 45 dollar desk from ikea and pay 59 dollar shipping.
It's insane, but so far I have found nothing. (Well, i might go the self built route honestly, my needs are basic as hell.)

Plz help.
FG reward if desired.

I have this which is pretty large/cheap. Not your exact dimensions, but it comfortably fits 2-3 monitors.
