> IKEA has always fallen apart when you try to move it... I've had the same Ikea Jerker desk since 1998. It still looks like new, and I've moved across the country with it several times. I even bought a few more when I could... they stopped making them 10-15 years ago. Best desk ever made. Totally modular, so you can canabalize other parts and mix and match to get exactly the desk configuration you want. https://www.thefrugalnoodle.com/jerker-standing-desk/ https://www.thefrugalnoodle.com/jerker-standing-desk/ https://images.offerup.com/mn6NJESc_F7ekPiguDHgD08JNcI=/600x800/photos/1efb6c09df854d16b7a4506034f9ffa0.jpg https://images.offerup.com/mn6NJESc_F7ekPiguDHgD08JNcI=/600x...

The important thing to remember here is that the structural members are entirely metal on that desk. As I recall, it's a full metal frame that doesn't use the tabletop as a structural member. That right there is the trick to stable cheap furniture. If you get a metal frame it should be pretty durable!
