But this has to be one of the cheapest home office desks I've ever seen - I've had takeaway pizzas that cost more than this.

Right now, the HomeMake FurnitureR Kante black and wooden L-shaped desk with
2 shelves is 17 (was 165) at the House of Fraser . Yes, seventeen quid. It's one of those moments where I genuinely refreshed the page to check there wasn't a mistake. It isn't. After hunting around, I also found it for 17 at Studio , which is owned by the same company.

Even adding on P&P - it starts from 4.99, up to 11.99 - that's an
unfathomably good deal for an L-shaped desk. They're usually several times more expensive that traditional office desks. What I especially love, though, is that unlike a lot of cheap models I see online, this one doesn't look like it came out of an industrial site or someone's workshop. It's got those eye-catching inward-curving legs, and a smoothly rounded corner section holding two storage shelves. Today's best office desk deal Save 147.99 HomeMake FurnitureR Kante L-shaped desk: was 164.99 now 17 at houseoffraser.co.uk A massive 90% discount on this sleek L-shaped desk, which serves up more space for dual monitors, laptops, paper-tray, and all those desk accessories that can clutter smaller desks. It has two shelves built
into the corner section for extra storage, too.

Postage & packing starts from 4.99, totalling 21.99. View Deal This desk was previously priced as a mid-range option - although I can't see when it was last 165, and with that in mind, I'd treat this as a budget desk with all
that you'd expect from cheaper furniture. Materials won't be ultra-premium, but so long as it's stable and looks good in your workspace, for 17, I really can't argue.

So, what does a 17 desk get you? First, this is built for home offices. While it's billed as durable, I wouldn't bring it into a busy office environment. But for running a small business or working from home, it's going to tick a lot of boxes.

It's made from E1 engineered wood, a type of wood similar to MDF, that the company says is "smooth, scratch resistant, odourless and wear-resistant."
The legs are part of a steel frame, painted black, and "resistant to rust and deformation."

At 80kg, weight load isn't staggeringly high, so you won't want to overload this one. But it's more than enough to hold multiple monitors and laptops, with plenty of space provided for exactly that.

For more picks, I've rounded up the best standing desks if you prefer height adjustable office furniture - but none of them are this cheap, usually retailing for around 100 on Amazon . What are the dimensions of this L-shaped office desk? The Kante measures 147 x 112 x 75cm, so you'll need some space
to fit it into your home office setup. It has a weight limit of 80kg. Each shelf has a 20kg weight limit.

You can see the full dimensions in the image below, as well as on the site. (Image credit: FurnitureR) Who is this home office desk for? I'd class this desk as one for busy professionals working from home who need more space for extra monitors or paperwork.

It's more stylish than a lot of cheap office desks I see, thanks to the sweeping legs and rounded corner.

Also, anyone who loves a bargain. I can't ignore that 90% discount. And
direct from Gemini Is assembly easy? This is always one of the first things I look for when buying or testing a new desk.

It's a self-assembly desk, as you'd expect. According to the page, it comes with "easy-to-follow full instructions included. How much is delivery? House of Fraser offers a range of delivery options, including store collection (but bring the van if you choose this).

Prices start from 4.99 for standard shipping, up to 11.99 for next-day delivery via DPD. Shop all desks at House of Fraser
