I bought just the frame at IKEA and then purchased a different top than what they recommend goes with it because I felt the Skarsta tops were ugly. I ended up with a butcher block style top also from IKEA. It's sturdy and I prefer it to the electric model because I didn't feel like I needed one extra thing to plug in. The top I went with is much heavier and I haven't had any issues with weight either.
