I got an IKEA desk years ago, forgot the name, and it's pretty good; modular design, height adjustable, really sturdy metal frame and wooden top. I think the wood has warped a bit over the years though, very subtly.

The downside is that it's no longer in production, so I can't buy another module to add to it. The ones they have now are a lot flimsier; thinner metal, thinner table tops, etc.

If I ever move I'll see to orienting myself on the desk market. And get a used chair, I spent nearly 500 on a new chair from an office shop but it's not as good as the ones I've had at work before. I googled and there's big webshops that sell refurbished office furniture, including the best chairs ever, for under 300.
