Often the size of modern apartments does not allow to equip a separate place for working at a computer or to fit a full-fledged desk in one of the rooms, where you can place all the office equipment available in the house. But besides other equipment, there is a system unit and a monitor, which you also want to place with maximum comfort for the user. Then small computer tables come to the rescue, the modest size of which allows them to fit even in a very small room.
To choose furniture of this kind suitable for your room, you need to consider the size of your room, the configuration of the product and its functionality.
As a rule, small computer tables are rectangular and corner. One of the advantages of such furniture is the ability to adjust the height of the countertop.
Rectangular tableit is better to choose those users whose number of office equipment is limited to one computer or laptop. Such a piece of furniture consists of a table top, a stand for the system unit and a sliding panel for the keyboard. Of course, various models of computer tables make it possible to slightly increase the working area by adding all kinds of shelves and add-ons. Thus, you can get a classic table-rack, which will not take up much space in width, but will stretch significantly in length.
The corner table is very convenient due to its configuration and allows you to take up unused space in the corners of the room. By installing this furniture, you can significantly increase the free space of the room. Due to the peculiarities of their shape, such tables have a comfortable wide table top, the dimensions of which are much larger than the dimensions of rectangular computer tables. In addition, such models already have a lot of built-in shelves and drawers, where it will be convenient to place all the necessary components.
Most often, small computer tables, like their full-fledged counterparts, are made of chipboard or MDF boards. Rarely there are models made of wood or plastic. In addition to the traditional design, today you can find quite interesting high-tech options that are made of glass and metal.
Useful buying tips
When purchasing small computer tables, you should pay special attention to the edging of all ends, stabilitythe table in general and the work surface in particular. It is best to opt for models that have a T-shaped edging - it is firmly inserted into the groove and will not fly out even with prolonged use. The U-shaped edging, which is put on the tabletop itself, has a protruding rim, which makes this type of finish come off easily.
Small computer tables with a metal frame are most often made of aluminum or stainless steel. Table tops are made of glass. When buying such a table, be sure to measure the thickness of the tabletop - it must be at least 10 mm. When choosing furniture with a wooden top, please note that such parts must be varnished.
