Picking a desk is no small decision. Gone are the days when your desk is just a spot to drop mail or put your laptop when you’re not using it: With many people working fully remote jobs or on a hybrid schedule, most of us are working from home at least one or two days a week, and our home desks are getting used more than ever.

With desks getting so much use, a basic surface or tiny console desk just isn’t enough anymore. You need room for a monitor, a spot for your coffee cup and water, cord organization so you’re not getting tangled in wires all day—the list can get long, especially if you require an ergonomic set-up or your job tasks take up multiple screens. Finding a desk that fulfills all these needs and doesn’t cost several hundred dollars and looks halfway decent is harder and more dispiriting than you’d think, a fact I learned firsthand this summer.

After moving into an apartment where I finally had space for my very own desk (a luxury I haven’t had in years!), I was excited to begin searching for the perfect desk. My enthusiasm quickly faded, though, when I realized that all the desks I liked the look of were out of my price range, and all the desks I could afford looked flimsy, like they wouldn’t survive another move. In the interest of both monetary efficiency and sustainability, I wanted a desk that would last, that was large enough for all my workday accessories, and that wouldn’t cost an exorbitant amount of money—and I finally found the intersection of all those things in the form of the Ezra Modular Desk with 6-Cube Storage from the Better Homes & Gardens collection at Walmart.
