What a difference new furniture makes! After years of using a cramped wooden plank from Ikea, I recently bought a proper L-shaped computer desk.

Like many of you, I now spend most of my day at my desk. There I work, play games, stream on Twitch, make music, and share memes with friends on Discord. And while my roughly 47-inch desk did the job for a while, I soon realized how cramped my work/play space had become.

Before upgrading to my current desk, my keyboard overlapped my mouse pad and there was barely room for two monitors, let alone a microphone, stream deck, and myriad other peripherals. But things changed after I got GreenForest's L-shaped computer desk.

Measuring about 39 inches on its long side, with an additional 25-inch panel wrapping around to the left, the GreenForest desk makes you feel like you really have a home office, not just a small desk in your bedroom. There is ample room for peripherals, speakers, and a monitor, and plenty of extra space for when you need it. The second side panel of the desk is a valuable space, as I use it to store my gaming consoles when I'm shooting products, reviewing laptops, and Twitch streaming.

Additionally, this GreenForest desk fits seamlessly into my home office (which is also my bedroom; I live in New York City). The sleek, all-black design is ideal for professionals, content creators, and gamers alike, and setup took only a few hours. The metal frame and solid wood panels feel sturdy, and after two months of all-day use, I have yet to notice any wear or tear.

All of this functionality comes at a ridiculous price. I was able to get this GreenForest model for $139, whereas many excellent desks cost $400 or more. Currently, the list price on Amazon is $99, and frequently less.

Since assembling the GreenForest L-shaped desk, my computer area has become a geeky oasis that I never want to leave. It is my office, my game den, my music studio, and more. Or, at least, as much of a joy as it has been lately.
