It looks very nice my only observation is that it looks very deep from the picture it may mean both you and your client are stretching over the table to work effectively.

I do quite like this desk. Someone sugested on another thread about ikea desks that if its to wide you could cut out a wave/well/indent in the desk on your side to make it smaller. Then you can buy a piece of lamination sticker to go on the cut that matches the desk. Make sense?

 

[Sian H]

Yeah thats a really good idea! Thanks!
The baskets on the picture unfortunately arnt included but im sure I can pick them up for a couple of pounds.
Ive been wanting an L shaped desk for ages and just fell in love with this one x

Yeah i have an L shaped desk and i love it, i dont have any storage under mine so i sat a 6cube shelve on top of it, looks great and im loving that you can modify things to suit your needs

 

[Sian H]

Ye I have some office chairs that can be adjusted so hopefully I will be ok! Fingers crossed x

Can you let us know if the width is a problem. I keep bumping knees with my Clients and I end up sitting twisted to avoid this but that's probably not good for my back. So I was thinking a wider desk but am not sure how wide is sensible for comfortable working.

I have an ikea desk width 75cm so quite deep but i was thinking about getting a smaller one. I mentioned it to a few clients and lots of them said they love it because they can completely rest their arms on it instead of just their hands. The only downside to mine is taking up space in my room and if I'm doing detailed nail art I do have to lean across a bit. 62cm sounds good to me, let us know how you get on.

I had a wide desk & it was definately not comfortable working for me, for the client it was.

I found I was having a sore back after every set of nails and not only that but a very sore stomach from leaning into the desk so hard, got a smaller width & its much better!

I was worried about mine being too wide for me too and I only got mine yesterday. This is what I got from ikea. But to be honest it's not a big deal. I still need to buy a decent chair for myself and my customers but I did my friends nails last night using the dining chairs and it was fine to me. I have so so much stuff to still put away and buy as well but I think it's perfect for me.

If you like it you'll make it work ;-)

 

[NailsXpress]

Should be fine. Just pull your clients closer. They'll soon pull their chair in a bit if it's a problem.

 

[Sian H]

I will let you all know when it arrives x
