How to choose a computer desk/table?

crsahkaz

Not sure what I should put but I'm specifically unsure about the desk/table height for keyboard / mouse area the most.

 

Preferring a minimalist desk/table, with:
1) Width: 1m - 1,5m

2) Depth: 50cm - 80cm

3) Height: 50cm - 80cm

4) Preferably with foot rest (not necessary)

5) Preferably being able to put PC on top of it / under the main area (Just want my case not to be on the floor directly)

 

Current chair is around 40-50cm tall (not a gaming/office chair or anything).

 

Would appreciate it if I can get some help on how to choose one. Thanks!

Budget?

Not super high, but I guess $100 or so tops?

Just trying to get something minimalist, I guess.

These are 2 examples I'm leaning at (though there are reasons I can't get the first one, seller is inactive lol)

That's not much. I'd take what I could find. I'd prefer something without a lip so that I can clap things to the desk easily like monitor arms and clamp on lamps. Of the 2 you posted It take the first.

If they deliver for free over $100 they might be worth looking at.
