Actual desk tops are much more expensive, around 2x the price for an equivalent area: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/categories/departments/workspaces/11844/

I'm not sure about the whole rounding the legs off thing, but if you're going to make 20 desks it's probably not that big a deal, and it does make the legs a lot nicer.
And it's interesting that you're ignoring the Aeron chairs - or are they worth spending money on?
Update: My bad, they're actually Progrid chairs from Costco, not Aerons.
- mlmilleratmit 14y agoThanks, the rounded/tapered legs are a surprisingly important addition. Staining them would be wonderful, but that's more time intensive than staining the doors. We offer Aeron chairs if folks want them. I tried the ProGrid (~10 way adjustable) chairs from Costco Business on a whim (I was stocking up on water cooler, fridge, etc). Costco has a great return policy, so no pressure. I've found them very adjustable and comfortable, so far no complaints or requests for an Aeron here. I should note that we got the mid-back version and it's a bit short for our 6' 6" @chewbranca.
- anthonyb 14y agoFor your next lot of tables, you might want to consider rounding the table tops slightly too. That way they don't dig into your wrists quite so much - plus they'll match the legs.
