Things to consider before
buying a desk:
1. Their is usually assembly required, so be sure to line-up a RELIABLE
handyman or woman if needed.
2. Look for free shipping.
3. If you are using a wheelchair, look for height adjustability and
width/depth space for the wheelchair.
4. Will you be able to reach everything?
5. Will the computer;
monitor; keyboard; mouse; printer; or input/output device/s be in
the right positions from where you're sitting?
6. Will everything fit
in the space you have at home for the desk?
7. Will there be
enough legroom?
8. If using a keyboard
and mouse or trackball will it be at the exact height needed? (This
one is very important!)
9. Does it match
your decor? (If married, ask your spouse)
10. Consider all
possibilities - returning an assembled desk is usually more trouble
than it's worth!
11. After you've chosen
a brand and model of desk use a price-comparison search engine to
find the lowest price on the internet, and shipping cost. (if
applicable) Click here for a
