A small computer desk with drawers is an excellent option if you’ll only be using a laptop with your new table and you don’t require ample surface to mount piles of files and papers. This type of desk can also work as your table for writing.

With that said, you may think that small computer desks with drawers are not meant to be used with PCs. That's where you’re wrong. Modern small computer desks come with drawers for keyboards, ample clearance for a mouse, and even shelves for scanners, printers, and your CPU!

To ensure you get the small computer desk with drawers that will address your needs, read on as we’ve prepared a buying guide just for you.

What shape computer desk should you choose?

Small computer desks come in several different shapes. Before you decide on one, consider the spot where you’ll be placing the unit. Remember that you will need easy access to it.

If you will be fitting the desk in one corner of a room, then choose the shape that’s triangular or L-shaped. There are also more complicated shapes that partially surround office chairs.

If you will be placing the desk against a wall, then you will need a square computer desk.

How to ensure the ergonomics of a computer desk?

Although this is not necessary, you should consider going for a desk that’s ergonomic, most especially if you will be using it for hours in a day. It’s always a good idea for you to ensure your comfort when you use your computer. It is, therefore, advisable that your desk offers you a comfortable space. Consider your sitting and working posture, as well as the things you’d be doing with the desk like typing, printing something, staring into your monitor, etc.

Your hands must be in a relaxed position as you’re typing. The distance between the monitor and your eyes must be carefully considered as well.

Lastly, consider the extra moves you’ll be performing during repetitive activities that involve your computer work because you surely won’t want to keep on bending over and over just to press certain buttons.

How much storage do you need on your computer desk?

If you’re like us, you also want a computer desk with lots of compartments to fit various items like papers, files, and books. So, choose the desk that has all the compartments that you need. If your work area won’t be surrounded by anything other than your PC or laptop, then a simple one-drawer unit will be perfect for you.

How to style with a computer desk?

This is where you can experiment. You will have the freedom to select the finish and color of your new working desk. After all, you will be the one who is going to use it. You can either match or complement your room’s existing décor or furniture. Your choices include several types of wood, plastic, laminates, and metal. Choose the one that you think can uplift your work area’s appeal, so your new desk isn't’ just functional, but stylish as well!
